You don't understand the happiness of the director

Chapter 611 ①Students attract each other ②DreamWorks changes ownership ③21st Century's highest rating ④Visiting the set of Naza ⑤Bao Si

After the filming of "Detective Chinatown 2" was completed in North America, all the crew members returned to the mainland without stopping.

The cost of the United States is too high. Although the budget is sufficient, we have to save money.

After Wang Baoqiang came back, he immediately ran to Qiankun Films to discuss the filming of his directorial debut "Buddhist in India".

He and Chen Sicheng wanted to go together, and he also wanted to be in the 2017 Spring Festival.

Wang Quan chose Ben Yu from Wanhe Tianyi, while Baoqiang took a fancy to Bai Ke from Wanhe Tianyi and decided to invite him to play the second male lead.

After returning, Liu Haoran, another male lead of Detective Chinatown, hurried back to school to attend classes, and used his spare time to promote the new drama "The Best of Us" starring him, Tan Songyun, and produced by Mi Shi.

"The Best of Us" was filmed last summer, but "Detective Chinatown" did take up some teaching time, and he is still a freshman. What does this mean? It means that Chen Sicheng is already a famous director in the eyes of the Central Academy of Drama, and the bottom line can be adjusted appropriately.

In addition, "Detective Chinatown 2" has two major companies, Wanda and Wangdao, behind it. Chen Sicheng thinks that he should be able to maintain the second place and compete for the first place in the 2017 Spring Festival. Maybe he will directly cross the 1 billion and enter the 2 billion!

~

After Liu Haoran returned to the Central Academy of Drama, he found that there was one person missing in the class. After asking, he found out that Ding Xiaoying from their class was selected by "Happy Journey" and entered the final screening.

So she can't go back to school for classes in the next month. If she is selected, she will not be seen for the next year.

Liu Haoran has been in the United States recently, and he doesn't know much about it, but he has heard about the casting activities of "Happy Journey". His friend Ouyang Nana seems to have participated, but he didn't pass.

Liu Haoran was envious, but it was a pity that "Happy Journey" did not select boys.

At the weekend, he still had to promote "The Best of Us". Although it was a web drama, it was no longer a shame to shoot web dramas now. Instead, they frequently became hits.

Their youth campus drama adapted from the novel of the same name by the Peking University talent August Changan was considered a small hit web drama.

And almost at the same time, there was another web drama that became even more popular, "Yu Zui" adapted from the novel of the same name on Qidian.

Yuewen will definitely go public this year, so there are more and more film and television animation works adapted from Yuewen novels, especially male-oriented works, which are all weights for Yuewen's stock price in the future.

Wang Quan briefly learned about Yuewen's adaptations in the past two years in the office. They were basically TV dramas, such as "Nirvana in Fire" and the current "Yu Zui", but there were almost no movies.

Just as he was watching, someone knocked on the door, and at the same time, a head popped in.

"Master, can I come in?" Meng Ziyi asked in a coquettish voice.

Wang Quan waved his hand, and she immediately threw herself into his arms.

Meng Ziyi comes to work on weekends, sacrificing her extracurricular life, but it's all worth it.

The two of them were bored for a while, and Meng Ziyi asked curiously: "Where is Xue Fu?"

Now Wang Quan only has Xue Fu as a full-time assistant, and Xiaotian's heart has flown to Xiaohongshu in Shanghai, almost living a dual-city life.

Wang Quan: "She went to record a variety show."

"Ah, her? Recording a variety show?"

"She should be back soon. She has no talent for acting and no market for singing. Let her play variety shows. After all, she is a well-known artist and still needs to maintain some exposure." Wang Quan looked at Meng Ziyi and said, "If you can't make a name for yourself in the future, I will let you record variety shows. At that time, I will arrange a silly girl character for you."

Meng Ziyi pouted: "Character setting must also follow the facts. How can I be stupid? I just have a big one, and people are smart!"

Wang Quan reached out to touch it, and it was indeed not small, but he didn't have a clear understanding of his own IQ.

Very fast, but not very fast.

Wang Quan and Meng Ziyi had already come once, and Guo Xuefu just came back.

"Is it fun to record the variety show?" Meng Ziyi asked softly, as if her soul had been taken away.

Guo Xuefu said a little aggrievedly: "Brother Han said that my reaction was a little slow."

Wang Quan smiled and said: "He is right, but this is also a feature, but I don't know how the show will be effective."

Guo Xuefu hurriedly said: "The first episode will be broadcast tonight."

She just went to record the third episode.

Wang Quan: "Okay, if I have time in the evening, I can watch it."

However, Wang Quan is still very busy in the evening, and Jiang Shuying and Zhou Ye also asked him to remember to watch "Mr. Good" starring them.

If "The Best of Us" and "Yu Zui" are the recent hit online dramas, then "Mr. Good" is the recent hit TV series.

Although it mainly relied on Sun Honglei's ratings at the beginning, as the series was broadcast, Jiang Shuying's "Jiang Lai" character was portrayed quite well, and she also attracted countless fans.

With this classic role, Jiang Jiang felt that she could also do some role-playing when playing with Wang Quan. She used to envy Nazha, Lin Zhiling and others.

However, Wang Quan decided to see what the beautiful girls in Xiaoyaoyou were doing first.

Coincidentally, Yang Chaoyue and Sun Yining were watching the first episode of "Mars Intelligence Agency", the variety show that Guo Xuefu participated in, which was a collaboration between Mishi and Youku.

Song Zuer and Hu Lianxin were watching the popular "Mr. Good".

Ding Xiaoying's computer was playing "The Best of Us", supporting her classmate Liu Haoran.

Chen Duling was writing and drawing with headphones on, as if she was still busy with graduation.

Just then, the director called them to gather, and the program team would invite them to watch a movie in the villa's audio-visual room, where the sofa seats could accommodate 10 people.

Yang Chaoyue understood that there must be an unlucky person without a seat.

Sure enough, she guessed it right, but she didn't guess that the unlucky person would be her.

Others sat on the soft sofa, but she could only sit on a small stool. Even if she was watching a masterpiece like "A Beautiful Mind", she was still fidgeting, as if there were nails on her buttocks, and she had to answer questions after watching it.

I didn't remember much of the plot. I felt that if I continued like this, I might have to live in the nanny's room next week. "No, I can't bear to leave Ningning!"

In the first week, Yang Chaoyue and Sun Yining lived in the same room. At first, Yang Chaoyue thought that Sun Yining was a cold beauty and not easy to get along with. Later, when she learned that she only had a junior high school diploma like herself, she immediately became a confidant and became a close friend.

On the second day, the beautiful girls' little house welcomed the first guest, who was also their acting teacher Zhang Songwen.

Zhang Songwen needs to judge their current acting skills and develop a scientific improvement method.

He just won a role in "Wolf Warrior 2". Before joining the crew of "Wolf Warrior 2", he was mainly responsible for the performance of the heroine, and he might even have to follow the crew for a while.

In the future, Gong Li, Liu Yifei, Jiang Wen, and Wang Quan will come to this villa one after another to participate in the recording of this variety show, otherwise it will be easy to get bored just watching 11 beautiful girls.

In Wang Quan's office, Guo Xuefu walked in with a bright face.

The on-demand rate of "Mars Intelligence Agency" is quite impressive. This online variety show is considered to be successful and may even lead the next era of Internet variety shows.

Although the biggest highlight of the show is Xue Zhiqian and Yang Di and other variety talent, Guo Xuefu, as a female guest who is a bright spot in the green, has also received a lot of attention and has gained a lot of fans.

And because of Wang Quan's identity as an assistant, those people in the show are very flattering to her and hope to get to know the boss through her relationship.

She sat on Wang Quan's lap and told Wang Quan some interesting things about the program group.

Wang Quan suddenly thought of a question: "You won't expose my topic for the effect of the program, right?"

Guo Xuefu blinked: "Boss, you have a family besides work, and your private life is very boring. I really can't think of any topic to talk about."

Wang Quan nodded appreciatively. You woman, your ability to lie with your eyes open is getting stronger and stronger.

He patted Xuefu's white skin: "Do a good job, and you will be the permanent deputy director of this program in the future."

Guo Xuefu had no way to repay her, and immediately knelt down to Wang Quan.

As she was kneeling, Wang Quan's cell phone rang. It was Dorothy's.

"What's wrong!"

"There's a result on the DreamWorks Animation matter."

"Oh~" Wang Quan adjusted himself and asked them to continue.

Dorothy: "NBC Universal took it for $3.87 billion, and it's about $4 billion including debts."

Just now, NBC Universal, a subsidiary of Comcast, officially announced that it would acquire entertainment giant Jeffrey Katzenberg's DreamWorks Animation for $3.87 billion.

In the future, DreamWorks Animation will be a brother company of Universal Pictures.

This means that DreamWorks, which was founded by Spielberg and other three giants and once infinitely close to the status of the seven major Hollywood studios, has completely failed to rise to the top.

Earlier, DreamWorks' live-action film department had been sold to Paramount, and then joined Disney.

DreamWorks Animation has been retained to this day because it was split and listed separately, and has produced popular series such as "Shrek the Monsters", "Kung Fu Panda", "How to Train Your Dragon" and "Madagascar".

However, in recent years, this listed company has been eyed by giant companies.

First, the toy giant Hasbro offered a 2.3 billion US dollar acquisition, and then the Japanese SoftBank Group offered 3.4 billion, but it still failed.

When the price reached 3.8 billion, Jeffrey Katzenberg finally couldn't hold on.

In fact, even Longtou and Netflix had considered acquiring DreamWorks Animation, but later thought that acquiring DreamWorks Animation would be worse than expanding the production capacity of Illumination Entertainment.

The most prosperous animation industry in recent years is Longtou's Illumination Entertainment. Except for the awards, it has been able to suppress Pixar in terms of box office.

Disney needs Pixar + Disney Animation to barely compete with Illumination Entertainment.

As for DreamWorks, it is far inferior to these two companies. In addition, there is no big company behind it, and the distribution has always depended on others.

Dorothy said again: "DreamWorks has completely collapsed, leaving only a sign. I see many people on the Internet saying that even though we Longtou are having a good time now, we will definitely not escape this fate in the future."

Wang Quan: "So what do you think?"

Dorothy: "I want to say, go to hell, the market value of Longtou + Netflix is ​​almost 300 billion. Now the Big Six are trembling with fear at the rise of Netflix. Isn't it because the MPAA has no status? If I want, I can afford Paramount and 20th Century Fox."

Recently, Netflix's market value has grown very fast, and it has exceeded 100 billion. After all, it is an Internet company. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is only a matter of time before Netflix's market value exceeds that of traditional media companies such as Longtou.

"Although I can afford it, forget it. It's a burden to buy it. It's better to put pressure on Netflix to let us occupy a permanent seat on the MPAA."

"Hehe, I think so too. I don't even think highly of the Big Six."

Finally, Dorothy told Wang Quan about the final North American box office of "Parasite".

118 million US dollars, four months after release, just 100 million more than "Who is He"

Although it is not as good as those commercial blockbusters of Wang Quan, it is difficult for this type of movie, even if it is an English movie, to have such a box office.

American audiences who suffer from the class gap can really understand and like to watch this "Parasite", especially the dialogue between Li Ming and others about happy education, which has a great impact on the lower classes of the United States.

Letterboxd is the latest and most popular European and American rating website with higher traffic than IMDB, and is deeply loved by young audiences.

On this website, "Parasite" ranks fifth with a high score of 4.6, surpassing "The Godfather" and "The Shawshank Redemption". It is Wang Quan's highest-rated movie and the highest-rated movie in the 21st century! (The previous four are old movies)

After the Oscars, "Parasite" was released worldwide. The title of Oscar Best Picture is more useful than the Cannes Palme d'Or. The market outside China and the United States also made more than 100 million box office.

After nearly two months in the mainland, the movie has been taken off the screen, and the final box office is fixed at 2.535 billion.

This result ranks third in history in the mainland, lower than "Zhu Xian" and "The Mermaid", but it is gratifying that this movie surpassed Wang Quan's previous work "Leng Feng" and became his highest-grossing movie in the mainland!

With a movie that won awards, netizens are predicting that the commercial film "Xiao Yao You" will probably double its box office.

So now the market share of "Xiao Yao You" has become a hot commodity that major companies are competing for.

The original 1 billion external cost actually increased a bit after passing through the hands of China Film.

Early May.

In the villa of the beautiful girl, Yang Chaoyue finally lived in the nanny room. Last week it was Sun Yining, and this time it was her turn.

She found that the exams here seemed to be deliberately targeting them, the poor students, and they actually took math tests, which was really killing her.

In fact, Chen Duling also found that these exams seemed to hit her gun, most of which were what she was good at.

Could it be that this heroine would really fall on her head!

When she saw that the girls here were younger than herself, Chen Duling actually backed off a bit, worried that she was too old and couldn't play a teenage girl.

However, she ranked first in both exams, which gave her great confidence.

She just heard a rumor from Yang Chaoyue that there would be another guest today. She didn't know if it would be Director Wang Quan. It had been almost two years since she last saw him.

But unfortunately, the guest today was Teacher Gong Li.

As for Wang Quan, he was flying to the Northeast to visit the set of "Sewing Machine Band". Zhang Tianai was also on his plane.

She, who is currently very popular, will guest-star as a cool tattoo artist in this movie, and is also the daughter of Guo Degang's character.

As mentioned before, Guo Degang played the original role of Yu Qian.

"You said you were visiting the set, but you were actually here for Nazha." Zhang Tianai said sourly beside him.

Wang Quan hugged her and smiled: "Isn't it for you?"

Zhang Tianai didn't believe it at all. She knew that she didn't mean that much to him. It was just that she was famous now, so she would feel more accomplished.

In fact, today is Nazha's birthday. There are not many female stars who can make Wang Quan fly to celebrate their birthdays. Zhang Tianai guessed that Wang Quan probably didn't even know when his birthday was.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help feeling melancholy, but soon she didn't care about being melancholy because Wang Quan enriched her.

At this time, the filming of "Sewing Machine Band" has come to an end. The big guitar built for this movie has been dismantled. Next, a concert scene will be filmed on this ruin. The crew has begun to recruit extras from Ji'an.

However, after the filming of the movie is finished, the big guitar will be restored, and the crew will pay for it.

Whether it is the greenhouse, Lao Wang, or the local government, they all think that this movie can be popular. As long as the movie is popular, it will be a tourist attraction and can boost tourism.

Nazha didn't know Wang Quan was back, but she guessed that the crew was planning to celebrate her birthday.

But when she saw that the person who brought out the birthday cake was Wang Quan, she burst into tears because she hadn't seen Wang Quan for a long time since filming.

This made Dapeng so angry that he stamped his feet. Before, when I asked you to shed tears, you just couldn't shed tears and had to use eye drops. Now, it's like free tap water. If you could have performed so well at the beginning, would I have been so anxious and angry?

You can't say anything, you can't scold, why are there so many heroines in my plays, all of whom I can't mess with.

Jiang Shuying is nothing more than Director Quan's assistant in public. I can occasionally be tough, but Nazha is a big shot. Before the start of the filming, Jiang Shuying reminded him, "You must treat her like your own aunt, and don't let her be unhappy at all."

Wang Quan's degree of pampering for Xianmi may not be as good as this little canary. After all, she has dedicated her best youth to him without any status.

Now there are many people and eyes, and Wang Quan is a married man after all. Nazha wiped her tears, sniffed her nose, and resisted the urge to throw herself into his arms.

Forget it, she can't bear it anymore, so she ran to Zhang Tianai's arms next to Wang Quan.

"Xiao Ai, you came to see me!" He rubbed his tears and snot on her.

Wang Quan understood that the emotions Nazha released on Xiao Ai originally belonged to him.

The next step of cutting the cake had to be put aside temporarily because Zhang Tianai's scene had to be filmed.

Because Dapeng was still the main actor, he dared to ask Wang Quan to help him shoot.

In order to save time, Wang Quan agreed. According to the usual efficiency, this scene would take at least an hour to shoot, but Wang Quan finished it in more than ten minutes.

Dapeng watched the playback and couldn't find any faults. The key is that Director Quan did not deliberately show off his skills. The shooting style was very consistent with his previous materials. This is the handwriting of a master!

With this operation, we can give Director Quan a special thanks when the movie is released!

After the filming, Wang Quan chatted with two old neighbors, Guo Degang and Yu Qian.

Guo Degang really envied Wang Quan's chic life. Unlike him, he was eaten up by his wife and only talked about Qian'er's sister-in-law on the crosstalk stage.

Brother Qian is a crosstalk artist and a film director. He has a good relationship with Wu Jing and has just received an offer for Wolf Warrior 2.

He just complained to Wang Quan, "Wu Jing asked me to go to Africa with him to film. It's really a death sentence."

Guo Degang immediately replied, "Why, don't you like African women?"

Yu Qian: "Go to hell."

After listening to the two of them performing an impromptu crosstalk, Wang Quan went back to the hotel to rest. Nazha naturally needed to rest after filming for a whole day.

Zhang Tianai quietly asked Wang Quan if she needed to rest together.

Wang Quan replied, "Wait for the letter. Today is Nazha's birthday. She is the most important. Listen to her."

Nazha does not need Zhang Tianai's help for the time being. She will let Zhang Tianai eat the leftovers after she has tried it.

Zhang Tianai: Little did you know that you are eating my leftovers now, hahaha!

In the next week, "Sewing Machine Band" will be finished as long as the concert scene is filmed.

Because this scene required all the actors in the crew to appear on the set, Uncle Benshan, who played Ding Jianguo's father, also rushed over from Shenyang the next day.

He enthusiastically held Wang Quan's hand and insisted that he go to Shenyang to sit down.

"Next time, I will definitely visit you in Shenyang next time. My new film is about to start shooting, and I'm very busy recently."

You're so busy that you still go to Ji'an on purpose, Zhao Benshan said, glancing at Gulinaza, and said, "Tsk tsk, your daughter is really beautiful. No wonder Wang Quan came to celebrate her birthday with a private plane. In ancient times, this is Bao Si who made King You of Zhou play with the princes with fire!

Although this crew is a Qiankun crew, it's not difficult for Zhao Benshan to know something.

Naza's eyes still reveal her reluctance to Wang Quan. One night is really not enough. She just wants to do it day and night.

In fact, she also signed up for the casting of "Happy Journey". She passed the first round, which was better than Reba, but she didn't pass the second round.

In fact, she didn't go for the heroine, but for the chance to spend time with him.

~

In April and May, Hollywood movies basically dominate the market.

Except for "Beijing Meets Seattle 2" which earned over 800 million yuan at the box office, the market is basically dominated by Hollywood blockbusters.

First, Disney's "The Jungle Book" earned nearly 900 million yuan at the box office, and then Disney's "Captain America 3" was released, under the name of "Avengers 2.5", and the box office was very explosive, and it was about to break 1 billion.

Many of the beautiful girls in Wang Quan's villa wanted to watch it.

So the crew simply arranged an outdoor variety show, letting them play games and then go to the cinema to watch a movie by various means of transportation, but they were exhausted on the way to the movie.

When they returned to the villa after a tiring day, there was a person sitting in the living room.

Wang Quan!

The 11 beautiful girls immediately stood up straight, each one was more energetic than the other.

There is only one week left before the selection results are released. Wang Quan came here today to arrange the accommodation allocation for the last week.

"Who is living in the nanny room now?"

Yang Chaoyue stood up: "Director, it's me."

Wang Quan smiled: "The nanny room is pretty good, it's the only single room."

Yang Chaoyue smiled bitterly, but the room was full of clutter, so it was hard to turn around, and it was so sweet, soft and comfortable to sleep with Ningning in her arms.

Now Sun Yining and Wang Churan were in the same room, and she was jealous.

"Next, let's play a classic game. You gesture and I guess. It's a points system. The one with the highest points can choose the house and roommate first."

The rules of the game are that each girl is assigned 10 pictures without text.

They have to determine which movie it is based on the picture, and then convey the information of the movie to Wang Quan through body language, so that Wang Quan can guess the name of the movie.

One point is scored for each correct guess.

Then Wang Quan is given some pictures, and Wang Quan looks at the pictures to identify the movie, and then gestures, and asks them to guess ten pictures respectively, and one point is scored for each correct guess.

That is to say, the full score is 20 points.

In fact, in addition to the amount of movies you have read, the test also tests your brain flexibility.

For example, if there is a shot of Monica Bellucci lighting a cigarette, even if you know it is "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily", how to let Wang Quan guess it is a problem.

Yang Chaoyue is quite clever. When she saw the stills of Farewell My Concubine, she guessed the title and then performed a suicide. Wang Quan immediately gave the answer.

There were also still stills of Ip Man, and she performed a classic Wing Chun move of squatting on one leg.

This girl is really good in physical fitness. Wang Quan still remembers the scene of her standing upside down for half an hour.

Although Yang Chaoyue has a low education, she graduated early, so she is better at watching movies and TV series than academic masters like Chen Duling.

But Ding Xiaoying is even better. Although she is not from the film academy, she still watches a lot of movies.

Later she said that she watched a classic movie every day after entering school.

She went to the Central Academy of Drama just to get more outstanding acting skills, but after entering this industry, the ultimate goal must be to make a big splash in the film industry.

Because the movie screenshots are also mixed with some foreign language films, Yang Chaoyue is at a disadvantage in this regard, but Song Zuer has the advantage.

She went to high school in the United States before, watched a lot of European and American movies, and her mind is active enough.

In the end, Zhang Xueying won the first place. She chose a house and her roommate Chen Duling.

The popularity problem can be seen from the choice of roommates. Chen Duling is the oldest, calm, and has the aura of a top student, so everyone likes her.

Ding Xiaoying, who ranked second, chose Hu Lianxin, mainly because they are from the same hometown in Shenzhen.

Song Zuer, who ranked third, chose Sun Yining, who Yang Chaoyue had been thinking about.

It seems that Sun Yining is very attractive to girls, or it may be that their temperament as a little girl makes them appreciate each other.

Zhang Ruonan, who ranked fourth, took away Yang Chaoyue, who ranked fifth.

Then Yang Yutong, who ranked sixth, chose Zhang Jingyi, a girl from Hunan.

Finally, Wang Churan, who ranked seventh, was left alone and got a storage room.

It seems that Chu Ran is not very sociable, but she looks good, so it doesn't matter.

Wang Quan finally told them: "I will come here to announce the results in a week. I also have good news to tell you. Director Cao Baoping's new work "The Murderer", Director Sun Rui's "In the Grass", and Director Yang Qing's new work "Young Ghost Blows Out the Light" all need some young and unfamiliar faces. The three directors will come with me at that time. After I choose the heroine, they may invite you to play roles based on your performance."

The scene immediately boiled, and all the beautiful girls couldn't hold back.

After all, it was only 11 to 1, which was too small, but now there are three more crews, and the probability is much higher. At least one-third of the probability can get a role!

This is considered a consolation prize, but the consolation prize is already very generous.

Especially Director Cao Baoping, who is known as the film emperor and actress maker, many first-line stars are now scrambling to be in his play.

After leaving the villa, assistant Guo Xuefu told Wang Quan: "Boss, the list of shortlisted candidates for the main competition unit of Cannes has been announced."

Wang Quan nodded, took the phone and looked at it, mainly to see if "Twenty-Two" was on it.

Cannes wanted to invite him to be the chairman of the jury a while ago. Although he is young, only 31 years old, his achievements are here, and he is more than qualified to be the chairman of the jury.

But unfortunately, the Cannes Film Festival and the start time of "Escape" coincided.

Wang Quan had made plans early, so he had to be embarrassed this time, but he also said "next time for sure".

So Jacob directly confirmed with him the chairman of the jury of the 2018 Cannes Film Festival.

As for this year's jury chairman, it is director George Miller, who made a big splash last year with "Mad Max 4: Fury Road".

In addition, Fan Bingbing, the heroine of "Parasite", who has amazed the Cannes red carpet for 10,000 years, was also invited to serve as a judge, which made the other four Dan and one Bing envious. This resume is almost as good as Gong Huangman Shen Liu Tianxian.

Although Wang Quan did not become the chairman of the jury this year, he recommended a movie, the documentary "Twenty-Two".

Cannes is not against documentaries. Wang Bing's documentaries have been nominated for major European awards many times. Previously, "Fahrenheit 9/11" also won the Cannes Golden Palm. The same is true for American films. Those that can win awards are all films that explore the dark side.

Wang Quan thought at the time that this movie needs to be seen by the world. Even if it can't enter the main competition unit, you can arrange a special attention unit for me. If it doesn't work, then arrange it in the documentary unit.

Jacob also said at the time that he would try his best, but he couldn't guarantee it. After all, the director is a newcomer and his shooting techniques are not very sophisticated.

The list was announced today, and Wang Quan only knew today that "Twenty-Two" entered the main competition unit!

This is definitely a gratifying thing. Regardless of whether it can win an award, being shortlisted for the Cannes main competition unit can promote "Twenty-Two" and the crimes committed by the Japanese devils in the past more widely and far.

In addition to "Twenty-Two", Chen Zhengdao's "The Tuner" adapted from a French short film was also shortlisted for the screening unit, but did not participate in the competition.

Those who can enter this unit are generally masters or famous directors. Chen Zhengdao's qualifications are still a little short, but because the original version is a very good short film in France, he was allowed to enter.

With these two films standing there at this Cannes, it can be considered a victory for Chinese films.

While Japanese films were not shortlisted for the main competition unit, the new work "The Handmaiden" directed by Park Chan-wook from Korea was shortlisted for the main competition unit.

Park Chan-wook is known as the director closest to the Palme d'Or in Korea. This time he is also coming with great momentum. The entire Korean media is building momentum for him.

There are many Palme d'Or in Japan, and now China also has two. The Korean film industry really needs a Palme d'Or to boost morale.

So next, Park Chan-wook, Lee Chang-dong, Bong Joon-ho and other famous Korean directors will successively launch a charge to Cannes, determined to win the Palme d'Or and be called the two most outstanding Asian directors with Wang Quan!
