Huayu started as a lecturer at Beijing Film Academy

When the news that "Ball Lightning" won the Grand Jury Prize in Cannes was passed back to China, it also caused quite a stir.

It may be a bit too much to say that it is worshipping foreigners, but foreign monks are always good at chanting sutras. For these international film festival awards, people's attention and pursuit are far better than the domestic Hundred Flowers and Golden Rooster.

Especially this time, even the French president came to the Cannes Awards Ceremony. Gu Zhongyu and others who won the grand prize also took a photo with the president at the end of the dinner.

In fact, the French president took photos with many directors and celebrities that night. This news was not eye-catching in foreign countries, but it was different when it was brought back to China. The legacy of the official-oriented thinking of two thousand years instantly raised the status of Gu Zhongyu and Guo Fan to a higher level.

Even Yang Mi, just this handshake and photo, can get a little more pay after returning to China.

It's a pity that "Ball Lightning" has been off the shelves for a long time, otherwise, with this wave of popularity, the box office may have a chance to sprint to 1.5 billion.

However, the overseas distribution rights of "Ball Lightning" have been negotiated. It will be screened in some small theaters and released on Blu-ray DVD at the same time. It is estimated that it can also make a few million dollars. It is better than nothing. It can be regarded as making up for the money Gu Zhongyu spent this time.

As soon as he got off the plane, a large number of media were waiting to interview the crew. At the same time, many talk shows also sent invitations. Even the old principal of Beijing Film Academy invited him to go back and talk.

Guo Fan patted his butt and returned to the United States to continue his studies. This time, only Gu Zhongyu took on everything.

"Teacher Gu, this is the first time that your film has been shortlisted for Cannes, and now it has won the Jury Award. What do you want to thank?"

"It's just good luck. It's all the judges' praise. Here I want to thank the entire crew for their efforts, and Teacher Liu Cixin's original work as support. Otherwise, we can't make such a movie..."

The reporters rushed to ask various questions, and the microphone was almost in Gu Zhongyu's face!

The quality of domestic entertainment reporters is really uneven now. The one who asked about his feelings just now was quite standard, but after a few questions, the questions of other reporters gradually deviated.

"Are you secretly in love with Teacher Yang Mi now?"

"It is rumored that you are filming a movie with Teacher Liu Yufei recently. How do you deal with the relationship between the two?"

"Do you have any plans to get married?"

...

It is known that no matter what the occasion, these reporters ultimately want to ask about gossip and privacy.

Gu Zhongyu was very upset and could not give any answer. He dismissed the reporters with a few words "just friends" and "no comment", and then got into the car with Yang Mi.

In the evening, in a time-honored noodle restaurant, Gu Zhongyu and Yang Mi gathered together to eat noodles with soybean paste, stirring the noodles in the bowl that looked very appetizing with chopsticks, mumbling.

"You are amazing, Gu Delai. We even won the Cannes award, and you treat me to this? Can't we have that romantic dinner again?"

"It's good to treat you to a meal. You still have so much to say. You should thank me for letting you stand on the podium in Cannes. Otherwise, you will never have the chance to stand on the podium in this life. You should treat me." Gu Zhongyu retorted without any hesitation.

He did not belittle Yang Mi at all. If it were not for him, Yang Mi would not have the opportunity to stand on the podium in Cannes for another 20 years. At most, he would get a fake award.

Gu Zhongyu was originally going to go back to the company with Gong Geer and others, but Yang Mi said that he was hungry, so the two of them came here to eat noodles with soybean paste.

It is really not easy for public figures to go out, unless they are doing reality shows, and there are a group of people following them, it doesn't matter whether they wear masks or not. Otherwise, if they are a little famous and appear in public places, they will basically be surrounded.

Fortunately, today is a weekday, and there are not many people now. Finally, I found a secluded noodle restaurant to eat.

"After we finish eating, what are your plans?" Yang Mi asked.

"Go home and sleep. I haven't slept well in the past two days, and I couldn't sleep at all on the plane."

Yang Mi rolled her eyes at him: "Of course you can't sleep well! When I checked out, I noticed that your big bed sheet was all wet, just like after a water fight. The taste of big foreign horses is good, right?"

The day before returning to Cannes, Gu Zhongyu stayed in the suite and didn't go out at all. Food and drinks were brought in by others. He and Salize stayed in the room for a whole day!

"Shh! Can you keep your voice down?"

"Do you know how to save face now? There are so many people traveling with you. Even your assistant Bai Lu can't knock on your door. That's really a spring night!"

"Ahem. Calm down, calm down, your voice is too loud, be careful not to be recognized by others. If you ask me, this is all your fault."

Yang Mi was so angry that he laughed. What does this have to do with me?

"It's all because of you. I wanted to sleep in your room, but you refused, saying that the time was not right. But Sally came to me, so how could I miss such a great opportunity to win glory for the country?"

"That's a lie. Even if I said the time was not right... that's not it. There are other ways to help you solve the problem! Who told you not to come to me?"

"Forget it. You just puff your lips and bark every time. I'm tired of you."

Gu Zhongyu ate a bowl of noodles with soybean sauce very deliciously, but Yang Mi's words were not so delicious. He was so angry that he couldn't find any words to refute. After all, she promised to deliver the goods to her door, but now she has not fulfilled her promise.

"Oh! I promised you that I will not break my promise, but I am not mentally prepared yet, and I am busy with the studio I just set up recently. Can you give me a few more days?"

Gu Zhongyu pouted: "You have no credibility with me anymore. My heart is broken and I am tired of love."

"Hello, is this Gu Zhongyu and Yang Mi?"

Just then, the couple at the table closest to the two finally found something wrong and came up to them. After getting a positive answer, they were excited to sign autographs and take photos.

The two signed autographs for them, but they didn't take photos to avoid unnecessary scandals.

As a result, they couldn't continue eating, so they quickly put on masks and left.

"Do you want me to take you home?" Gu Zhongyu asked Yang Mi.

"You were just recognized, aren't you afraid of being photographed by reporters?"

"Yeah! You're right, then I won't take you."

Yang Mi:.

Why doesn't this man play by the rules?

However, considering that she was in the wrong first, Yang Mi still begged Gu Zhongyu to take her home in a nice voice, and he had to agree reluctantly.

When driving, Gu Zhongyu also looked very unhappy. Yang Mi, who was sitting in the passenger seat, felt sorry for him, so she leaned down and quickly made Gu Zhongyu happy.

I am throwing a tantrum and rolling around to ask for monthly tickets, dear readers, Xiao Shitou needs your nourishment!
