Chapter 18 Red Carpet (1/5)

Ask a question, why does Beijing hold a film festival?

Let me put it this way, if there was no film festival in Cannes, then Cannes is probably not as famous as Corsica now.

Who knows about the small city of Locarno? It is because of the Locarno Film Festival that it has made it on the world stage.

This is the influence of the film festival on the city.

For big cities, film festivals can derive economic chains such as film planning, production, and distribution, and concentrate resources from related industries such as exhibition, advertising, tourism, communication, media, and radiate to finance, publishing, consulting, catering and other related fields.

These are all bare silver.

So now, whether it is Cannes or Venice, it is "film sets the stage and economy plays the show"!

The city of Beijing itself is the Chinese Film and Television Culture Center. It is normal for it to hold a film festival.

The question is, what should I do if the Shanghai Film Festival is

Especially at this year's Beijing Film Festival, James Cameron was invited and said that he would produce two Sino-US co-production films "The Art of War" and "The World of Gods"...

Of course, we all know that these two projects have been miscarried.

That also gained a lot of pages, entertainment news...

The Shanghai Film Festival needs to reposition itself!

what to do?

Focus on Asia, join forces, and fight against Hollywood together...

This is the right path, but not this year, and not next year...

The theme of this year is ‘Telling the Chinese story to the world’. Next year, the Film Channel Media Award will be added. The Golden Lion has the Maschuani Award and the Golden Bear has the Catholic Humanitarian Award. However, the Media Award of this Film Channel is too bad. It directly pulls the Shanghai Film Festival to the bottom - "Tiny Times", "Fuchun Mountain Residence" nominated for the best film, and "Tiny Times" won the grand prize, and Guo Xiaosi won the Best Director...

The most unpleasant thing is the translation problem. A movie in the main competition unit called "HannasschlafendeHunde", which was translated into "Hannah Sleeping Dog"...

Um?

Our scale is so big? Sleeping dog?

Starring Sarina Takeuchi?

Well, there is something wrong with the translation - SchalafendeHunde is a German proverb that means "difficulty" and "disconcilable", so it should be "Hannah's trouble"...

This is a big deal when the Dang A-Class International Film Festival is overwhelming!

Forget it, Shen Mengxi came to the Film Festival because of Mengxi Media's cooperative relationship with Shangying Film.

By the way, I will warm up "Walking with God"...

...

The Shanghai Film Festival red carpet has the elegant name of Asia's No. 1 red carpet...

I don’t know where this title comes from, anyway, many fan circles say that!

However, this year's Shanghai Film Festival has indeed made a ruthless move. Perhaps it was stimulated by the Beijing Film Festival. Anyone with a little fame sent an invitation letter, so it really formed a star-studded Chinese-language venue!

Buffy Zhao, Bingbing Li, Bingbing Gao Yuanyuan, Lin Zhiling, Zhang Baizhi…

Fan Xiaopang didn't come, she was a little worried. It wasn't a matter of sneaking into sleep, it was "The Woman of the Dynasty·Yang Guifei". This drama is very famous, just the original film of Ma Zhen...

There are many domestic movies compared to the movies. The really exciting ones are the examples behind the scenes. "Yang Guifei" is one of them!

The project was proposed in 2009, and "Yang Guifei" was officially launched in March. At that time, investors even included a British production company.

In April 2011, it was renamed "The Crisis of the Tang Dynasty". British investors withdrew and the film was changed to a Sino-Japanese co-production. It was finalized that Guo Zairong was directed by the director.

In October, it was announced that it would be changed back to "Yang Guifei" and it was confirmed that Fan Xiaopang starred in Yang Guifei.

In January this year, the film started filming - but due to differences in production concepts, the film company intends to change the Korean team. Korean director Guo Jae-rong resigned and was exposed for asking the actor to add the show too much...

——This is why Chen Mengxi is reluctant to let first-line big flowers star in his works.

Invite them to star in a starring role not only requires a high pay, but also has to be quite tilted in the role, character design, and ranking, which will often seriously affect the overall view of the film.

It’s better to find Liu Yifei, Yang Xiaomi and the others in a pure heroine drama!

Not only that, "Yang Guifei" announced in March that Tian Zhuangzhuang would take over as the guide, and at the same time, Japanese investors announced that they would withdraw their investment.

Then last month, Director Tian resigned as director...

He was in a state of turmoil. Just now, Fan Xiaopang took the time to go to Cannes and overwhelmed Liu Yifei!

Let’s talk about the red carpet, Mengxi’s top ten golden flowers... No, now the outside world calls these actresses the Fourteen Beauties of Mengxi – plus Nini.

Five of them came, Yang Xiaomi, Liu Shishi, Nazha, Zhao Liying and Jin Chen.

Chen Mengxi must have someone to accompany him when walking the red carpet, so he simply pulled Jin Chen. The reason is very simple - the promotion of "Walking with God".

There is an order in the domestic red carpet. Even if Chen Mengxi does not have this requirement, the organizer will not allow him to appear at the same time as a third-rate star...

Jin Chen…

She secretly looked at Chen Mengxi sitting aside and looking at her phone. She was a little afraid of Chen Mengxi...

How to say it, Chen Mengxi can be said to be her immediate boss, the kind that determines life and death in one sentence...

Just talking about the movie "Walking with Gods", she played Li Dechun, one of the three major messengers of hell, and is considered the protagonist. The actors who played with her are Hu Ge, Chen Kun, Chen Director Ming, and Huang Bo!

How did she get the resources? The agent said that Chen Mengxi gave it to her casually!

Such a big cake, just point it at her casually?

Don't have to pay anything?

After joining the group, she was also waiting for the call of Chen Mengxi... Unfortunately, during the filming period, Chen Mengxi had never appeared at all. He was very concerned about the preliminary preparations and post-editing edits...

Also, during the filming period, including the director and the deputy director, they were all fierce, and they didn't care that she was a newcomer at all, and they would scold her if she made a mistake...

That's outrageous!

I was appointed by Mr. Chen himself!

Later, she roughly learned about the operation method of Mengxi Company, mainly the resource supply method, which is internal priority...

There is no need to go to evil heretics.

What a strange company, a strange man...

Does he have no desire?

Just as I was thinking, I felt my hand being caught, and there was a man's voice: "Let's go, we're here!"

She quickly followed Chen Mengxi's steps and stepped onto the red carpet of the Shanghai Film Festival...

...

When Chen Mengxi walks the red carpet, it will not delay the photo taken by reporters on both sides, nor will it make people feel that they are being delayed.

In the interview area, Chen Mengxi introduced Jin Chen: "This is our female lead in "Walking with Gods", the newcomer, Jin Chen, and our company signed last year!"

"I'm not very clear about the standards for recruiting newcomers, but there are three rigid regulations: the acting skills should not be too poor, the professional quality should be there, and the most important thing is good character!"

"Certain character is of course very important. For artists, their abilities are actually his fame and influence, which are directly linked to their social responsibilities. Because they are loved by everyone, their every word and deed may be imitated, so guiding a correct outlook on life and values ​​is also one of their responsibilities."

"There are three ways for humans to grasp the world: science, art and religion. Art works care about people's cognitive demands, moral demands and emotional demands. This is usually what we call truth, goodness and beauty. If an artist has a problem with his character, how can his artistic character be high?"

"In the era of self-media, we have high requirements for artists!"

The reporter didn't expect Chen Mengxi to go so far, so he quickly changed the topic: "Then what do you think is the advantages of Jin Chen?"

Chen Mengxi smiled and said, "She is quite malleable. She can play both a little flower and a Qingyi... I am quite optimistic about her!"
