That year Huayu
Chapter 326 One prize guaranteed, closing ceremony
The day after the opening ceremony, Gu Changwei's "The Favorite" was officially released in China.
The main creators are still staying in Cannes and have nothing to do with the film's release.
Because whether it is Gu Changwei or the film crew, they know very well that if this kind of literary and artistic film wants to make money, it must rely on selling copyrights!
It is really a fantasy to expect the domestic box office to be profitable.
Sure enough, the first day's score of 6 million was as low as the industry expected.
Even though Lin Nan was in Cannes, he could still imagine the situation of domestic films being released at this moment.
It must be so horrible to see corpses everywhere.
Because the imported blockbusters "Fast and Furious 5" and "Thor" were the first to enter the venue in the first half of the month!
…………
The copyright transaction for "Painted Skin 2" is indeed not easy.
Although it had been discussed before that China Film and Wanda would be responsible for all matters related to the film in Cannes, Lin Nan could not be completely unconcerned.
"How's it going? Do you have any film producers that have made a deal?"
"Director Lin, we have signed four contracts with a total price of 4.6 million US dollars. There are still several companies currently in negotiation..."
Wanda's people were hesitating and talking, and Lin Nan understood.
"Painted Skin 2" is still not suitable for Europe and the United States, and there are not many interested film studios.
It is estimated that even if the latter two companies have negotiated, the combined price will be similar to the first four at most.
"Okay. Try to sell it for 10 million US dollars, which can be considered as recouping half of the cost."
Lin Nan said with a smile. I heard that the "Martial Arts" over there was the worst, with less than a million dollars.
Among all the Chinese-language films, only Lin Nan and Liu Yifei's "The Star" has not yet let go of its copyrights and is waiting for the closing ceremony to be over.
Among other films, Gu Changwei's "The Favorite" and Xu Ke's "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" sold well.
After all, the former is a frequent visitor to international film festivals, the latter's film is a big-budget 3D martial arts film, and there is also Shi Nansheng's platform!
…………
Without any surprises, Liu Yifei easily won a new high-end endorsement.
In Asia, with an endorsement fee of US$4.2 million over two years, she is considered the top actress among post-80s actresses.
The news spread quickly, even the domestic media reported it.
"During her attendance at the film festival, Liu Yifei signed a high-end endorsement deal with a two-year fee of up to $4.2 million!"
"According to statistics, the total number of endorsements Liu Yifei currently has is not large, but the quality and grade are very high!"
"It's not about being too smart, this is the most correct way for top actresses to choose brand endorsements..."
…………
Many actresses in the industry felt really sad after seeing the news.
What does "smoothly" mean?
Is it so "smooth"?
Fan Bingbing, Li Bingbing, Zhang Ziyi and others who were also in Cannes sent messages to congratulate Liu Yifei.
Among these three people, Zhang Ziyi was also favored by many big brands. Ever since he was dumped, he...
"I thought it would be busy this time in Cannes, but I didn't expect it to be this busy."
Liu Yifei held Lin Nan's arm and said with a smile.
She has attended many events in the past two days. After all, she is endorsed by big brands, and brands want her to appear more.
Our own spokesperson has a film shortlisted for competition at the Cannes Film Festival. This is a rare opportunity!
In Lin Nan's eyes, Liu Yifei has a particularly good advantage.
That is, when she is working, she can turn into a workaholic, very hard-working and dedicated, and not afraid of hardship and fatigue.
When she takes a break, she can be crazy, silly, nerdy, and even extremely lazy...
This is the most real Liu Yifei!
"Is it empty these days?"
"Well, I have nothing to do in the next two days, let's go shopping?"
Miss Liu looked up at Lin Nan and suggested with a smile.
"Just waiting for you, haha..."
…………
Since the opening ceremony, various non-competition units have held press conferences one after another, with an average of one red carpet show every two days.
Fan Bingbing is very powerful, you can see her on every red carpet, and she doesn't miss any large cocktail receptions and parties.
Zhang Ziyi is busy running some charity and public welfare activities, trying his best to "make up for" the negative impact of his previous fraudulent donations.
On this point, when being interviewed by the media, she secretly mocked Fan Bingbing.
“If I don’t have any works in the competition, except for the opening and closing ceremonies invited by the organizing committee, I would not be willing to attend other red carpets. This would make me look inferior and lacking in quality...
Every time, Zhang Ziyi took the initiative to step on her, and she was slapped in the face every time.
Fan Bingbing behaved calmly in front of reporters.
"Every dress I wear on the red carpet is a pure Chinese style design. I hope to let the world see Chinese elements through the media lens on the red carpet..."
With such a positive reason, who can say anything?
When Lin Nan heard this, he felt that Fan Bingbing's quotient was really high!
There is no denying that she is trying to get her chance on the red carpet.
But those Chinese-style dresses have indeed attracted a lot of attention from foreign media, from the ink Chinese characters a long time ago to the plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum this time...
…………
Cannes has a really good location.
Under the green mountains, on the shore of the Mediterranean Sea.
A small town with a five-kilometer-long beach, a large sea of flowers and palm trees...
Lin Nan and Liu Yifei held hands and walked on the beach.
Big sunglasses, sun hat, and the sea breeze are very comfortable.
From time to time, some people asked if they could take photos, and Liu Yifei nodded with a smile on her face.
"There are only two days left, Sissi, are you nervous?"
Lin Nan squeezed the girl's smooth hand.
"Hmm..., don't be nervous."
Liu Yifei thought for two seconds and answered decisively.
This surprised Lin Nan. She had always wanted to have her own actor trophy.
"Why?"
“It’s not just this one chance, if it doesn’t work once, then twice…
Sooner or later you will lead me to win the Best Actress, right? "
Liu Yifei raised her head, first took off her own sunglasses, and then reached out to take off Lin Nan's.
She looked at Lin Nan with a pair of watery eyes, with an expectant smile on her face.
Lowering his head, Lin Nan couldn't help but kiss her.
"Yes. If it doesn't work once, just twice. I will help you get the best actress sooner or later."
At this moment, there was something Lin Nan kept in her heart that she didn't say out loud, "The big deal is, just compromise once..."
Suddenly, Liu Yifei thought of something.
"Tell me, have you received the notification?"
"Haha, you are so smart. I just received the text message that we have to attend the award ceremony."
Hearing this, Liu Yifei immediately lost her composure and grabbed Lin Nan's hand and walked back.
"Come on, let's go back quickly. I want to surprise mom in person. There's a guaranteed prize!"
"Slower……"
…………
As the closing awards ceremony approaches, the atmosphere in Cannes has reached its climax.
Many people came to make insinuating remarks and wanted to know whether "The Star" would appear at the awards ceremony.
Yu Dong from Bona was impressively listed.
Because "The Star" not only hasn't set a schedule in China, but the promotion company hasn't set one either.
Fatty Yu has been in the spotlight recently. The news has been revealed in China that this guy is divorced.
I heard from my ex-wife that this guy was hooked up with some female star...
Public opinion in the country was abuzz, but Yu Dong didn't care at all and still boasted about his awesomeness in Cannes.
"Bona's goal is to become one of the top six in the country like the six major Hollywood film companies! We want to plant the red flag in Beverly Hills..."
Although "The Star" is a literary romance film, its box office is unanimously optimistic among the industry because of Lin Nan and Liu Yifei!
Many companies in the industry even believe that "Star" can compete with high-quality commercial films at the box office.
Faced with Yu Dong who came to visit him in person, Lin Nan chose to refuse without hesitation.
"Director Lin, don't you think about it anymore? Bona is stronger now than before..."
Now that I'm listed, I'm rich, and I'm a lot tougher on what I say.
"Dr. Yu, before coming to Cannes, Director Han asked me about the schedule of "The Star"."
Lin Nan clicked to the end, and sure enough, Yu Dong was speechless for a moment, and the pressure of his old superior was there.
"Forget it, if there is anything I can do to help, Director Lin just ask..."
People who abandon their wives are always resented unconsciously.
…………
Cannes Film Festival, the closing ceremony is here.
The makeup artist got up very early today, because not only Liu Yifei, but also Liu Xiaoli.
In order to improve efficiency, Liu Xiaoli came first.
She is not a star and does not need such exquisite makeup and styling.
Even the clothes were chosen by Liu Xiaoli herself, the cheongsam.
As for jewelry, she chose jade jewelry.
More than an hour later, Liu Xiaoli completed her styling.
Her temperament is graceful and luxurious, not inferior to her daughter, and worthy of the name of a first-class dancer!
"Mom, you can be described as 'beautiful' now, just like when I saw you dancing on the stage when I was a child."
Liu Yifei said with a look of surprise, her mind filled with memories from her childhood.
"Haha, it's not as exaggerated as you said."
Faced with the praise from her daughter, Liu Xiaoli said modestly, smiled happily, and began to reminisce about those years.
Liu Yifei's makeup is much slower. She is the heroine of tonight's red carpet.
Closing ceremony red carpet, another dress.
More than three hours later, Liu Yifei stood in front of Lin Nan.
White strapless long skirt with white handbag, hair shawl and fluffy skirt
The skirt is embroidered with some pink fleshy flower patterns, which looks pure, beautiful, natural and noble;
A platinum and diamond necklace, coupled with red lips, makes the skin fairer and smoother;
The golden high heels are on the feet, elegant and elegant!
Liu Yifei at this time is another kind of impeccable beauty compared to the opening ceremony.
"nice!"
Can't think of words, Lin Nan can only say these two words.
"Then let's set off?"
Liu Yifei said with a smile.
She knew Lin Nan, and her eyes were obviously dumbfounded.
…………
The climax of the Cannes Film Festival is tonight.
Palme d'Or, Jury Prize, Best Director...
The scale of the red carpet at the closing ceremony was far greater than that at the opening ceremony.
Whether they are filmmakers, directors, actors and stars, media reporters, or fans, the number of these people has more than doubled compared to the opening ceremony.
When Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, and Liu Xiaoli arrived at the scene, they were also surprised by the huge crowd of people.
The female artists all showed off their talents, as if they had some special skills.
Familiar faces like Gong Li, Zhang Ziyi, Li Bingbing, Fan Bingbing, and Zhou Xun were already in the waiting area.
Although none of them have any works in the competition, they are all guests at the award ceremony and will enter the venue to watch the award ceremony.
"Director Lin, Yifei, it's up to you tonight."
"Thank you, just be normal. Haha..."
Several domestic crews came over to say hello one after another.
Only the ones on Hong Kong Island were far away, so they pretended not to see them...
Next chapter, later.
