Chapter 140 "Good Will Hunting" becomes the opening film (four updates)

What the two of them didn't know was that they were fine and relieved.

Liu Xiaoli is facing the wrath of Marty Ball.

"What? No more signing? I've been waiting for her for a month, and now she says she won't sign?" Marty Ball said angrily:

"What? The weight of WMA is too small to satisfy Ms. Liu's vision?"

"Or has CAA already extended an invitation to her?"

"What's even more outrageous is that she ran away with her man and never came back. She refused to sign a contract with us, and she still had to call us?"

"It's incredible. Are you Chinese people too rude?"

Marty Ball's lungs are about to explode.

After talking about it, he became more and more angry and said harsh words:

"Don't sign? That's okay! No one's coming either? That's okay."

"But you'd better let your daughter pay attention in the future, there will no longer be a place for her in Hollywood."

"Idiots are not welcome in Hollywood."

Liu Xiaoli was a little frightened. She was really afraid that Marty Ball would focus all his anger on her daughter, so she brought Tang Ze in.

The identity of the boss of Tangze Film and Television Company was revealed.

It was said that her daughter was originally interested in signing Tianze, but later she found out that WMA liked her so she didn’t join.

Now it seems that Tangze must have used unknown means to convince his daughter.

In order to express her authenticity, she even said that her daughter was interested in Tang Ze, but Tang Ze was heartless.

What he said implicitly hinted at the possibility that Tang Ze was using his daughter's affection to blackmail him.

In short, Liu Xiaoli made no secret of her dislike for Tang Ze.

In fact, she didn't know that Liu Yifei would join Tianze, but apart from this, were there any other reasons for rejecting WMA?

Marty Ball was angry, and she was even more angry, even aggrieved.

But no matter what the reason is, it doesn’t matter.

All she knew was that her daughter's career in Hollywood was over.

Tang Ze, who caused all of this, has made Liu Xiaoli deeply resentful.

She feels that Karasawa has ruined her daughter's life.

Even if Tangze wanted to date his daughter in the future, she would never agree.

Liu Xiaoli's words made Marty Ball even more furious, but he also temporarily shifted the target of his anger.

This is equivalent to the enemy snatching people away under their WMA noses.

As a result, not only did he know nothing, but he regretted that his enemy would lose his woman.

How ridiculous?

Soon, Marty Ball found out about Karasawa's director and singer information.

Except for the initial surprise, he didn't care much about it.

Especially in terms of movies, if it breaks 100 million, so what if it’s 200 million?

Compared with Hollywood, the box office of Chinese movies is just a drop in the bucket.

Didn’t Chinese movies still lose to "Transformers" this year?

And Michael Bay, the director of Transformers, is under their WMA banner.

Of course, he also knows that with Tang Ze's popularity in China, there is nothing the WMA can do against Tang Ze.

I’m not from Hollywood

After the anger subsided, he just remembered Tang Ze.

In the future, when "Transformers 2" is released, Tang Ze will know how powerful the people he provoked will make him sick.

But Liu Yifei will always be on his blacklist.

Even if Liu Yifei regrets afterwards, he will not agree.

No matter how many reasons there are, even the company will not choose it.

It’s okay not to want such a love-minded star.

……

At this time, Tang Ze and Liu Yifei had just boarded the plane.

However, Cannes has already finished walking the red carpet and has begun to announce the opening film of the main competition unit of the 61st Cannes International Film Festival.

Needless to say, the process of walking on the red carpet is just a formality, just using reporters and media to increase exposure.

Even though Tang Ze was away, not many people abroad knew him, and he didn't attract much attention.

Domestic reporters, especially the three major portals, have repeatedly wanted to interview Tang Ze.

But because Zhou Jielun and others had been helping to hide it, they had no idea about Tang Ze's return to China.

Although the opening film is not an award, it is also an honor.

Some people even regard it as a bellwether for winning awards and cherish it very much.

If you choose a certain movie and want to express your feelings, it will be too bad if Karasawa hasn't arrived yet.

Fortunately for Chen Kuang and Zhang Hanyu, they have experienced enough and know how to restrain some irrational thoughts. They came to Cannes not expecting to win an award.

Zhou Jielun, who was already sitting in his seat, found it difficult to keep calm.

What if the opening film is "Good Will Hunting"?

No one can say for sure.

Jia Zhangke, who had been paying attention to Tang Ze, also noticed the situation of the empty people here and frowned subconsciously.

But the seats have already been taken, so it’s not easy for him to go over and ask.

"What's wrong?" Wang Jiawei asked subconsciously when he noticed that Jia Zhangke's attention was distracted from the jury chairman Sean Penn who was reading the opening speech.

"It seems that a young director I am paying close attention to is not here. I hope he has not left the show."

"Oh!" Wang Jiawei knew it was Tang Ze, but he was not familiar with Tang Ze.

Immediately, he took the initiative to bring up the topic and discussed the possibility of opening the film with Wu Yushen and Jia Zhangke.

"Director Wu, let's not discuss winning awards for now. Your movie "Red Cliff" is already well known in China. It is a big investment and should be good to watch."

"Are you sure you can win the honor of opening film?"

Wu Yushen's face was filled with pride. It was obvious that he was confident, but he still waved his hand and said:

"It's difficult. Most of the people who come to Cannes are foreigners. We must first attract foreigners. The difficulty of opening a Chinese-language film is no less than winning the Palme d'Or."

"Last year, "Blueberry Nights" produced by you was the opening film, but unfortunately the actors were all foreigners."

"After I left Hollywood, I hoped that movies starring all Chinese would also be taken seriously."

Jia Zhangke also agreed: "In addition, it will be difficult to win an award this year."

He pointed to the two old men and said: "Even the Dardenne brothers, who have won the Palme d'Or twice, are here. The competition is too fierce."

Wang Jiawei smiled and said: "Don't be humble, I believe you are still confident in winning the award."

As soon as he said this, Sean Penn finally began to announce the title of the opening film.

But when we got here, Sean Penn still failed.

He smiled and said: "There are many outstanding directors participating in the selection this year, which is a clear proof that the film industry is getting stronger."

"And the movie I'm going to announce later comes from an admirable country. You might as well take a guess."

Then he became serious: "It's just a pity that an unfortunate disaster occurred in this country this year."

"I hope they can get through it smoothly."

Hearing this, everyone present had already guessed that the person qualified to open the ceremony was a Chinese.

There are not many oriental faces coming to Cannes, but they are very conspicuous in the crowd.

Immediately, many envious eyes turned to Jia Zhangke, Zhou Jielun and others, and they applauded in advance.

Especially in Jia Zhangke's area, including Chinese actors, there are the most Eastern faces.

Wu Yushen, Wang Jiawei and Jia Zhangke were very excited.

There are only a few Chinese directors participating in the Cannes selection this time.

The others are not that well-known, so it is very likely that the opening film will be made by the three of them.

I didn’t expect it. I just said that Chinese films had very few qualifications to win the opening. I didn’t expect that the next moment, a Chinese would be honored.

God really likes to joke with them.

So the three of them congratulated each other on the surface, but secretly began to compete, speculating on whose movie was the most likely.

On the other side, Zhou Jielun became nervous.

Karasawa is so strong in music, so the movie is not bad, right?

I hope that "Good Will Hunting" will qualify for the opening, so it will have a great chance of winning the award.

Then, Sean Penn, who had whetted everyone's appetite for a while, read out the name of the movie:

"The opening movie is director Karasawa's film, "Good Will Hunting"!"

"Congratulations!"
Chapter completed!
