Director of Rebirth of Xiangjiang

Chapter 380 I Am Me (13) Subscribe
Qiqi had been sleeping in the room at noon, so she was very excited at night. She was very dishonest in the quilt, which made Zhao Hong uncomfortable.

In the end, there was really no other way but to give her an injection, and now she lay obediently in Zhao Hong's arms and slept.

Zhao Hong really didn't realize it after some operations. He thought of a person he met today. This person will be the future chairman of the Cannes Film Festival, and he is Gilles Jacob.

He has served as the film selection director of the Cannes Film Festival since 1980. He is fully responsible for the film selection and has the final say on the shortlisted films of each unit.

Therefore, he was the first person Jiang Zhiqiang introduced to him today. Zhao Hong knew that he was a great person. During his tenure as the chairman of Cannes, he trained a group of world-class directors.

While at the helm of the Cannes Film Festival, Jacobs focused on discovering world-class directors.

Angelopoulos in Greece, Quentin Tarantino in the United States, Jane Campion in Australia, Hou Xiaoxian in Huaguo Bay, and Abbas in Iran have all benefited from his talent.

It can be said that he dedicated his whole life to Cannes, and Cannes should also become the most dazzling jewel among the three major European film festivals for his efforts. He provided a fairer platform for filmmakers around the world and gave the third Filmmakers from all over the world have an opportunity to display themselves, and he himself has made great contributions to Chinese-language films.

He conveyed some of the ideas of the jury chairman Sidney Pollack this time. He looks like he is in his 50s, but his eyes are piercing and his speech is very friendly.

He was very happy to see Zhao Hong, and there was a feeling of sympathy between the two after the communication. He bluntly said why he didn't meet Zhao Hong earlier.

Zhao Hong felt that this old man was very interesting. He spoke very honestly, without the aloofness or affectation of ordinary filmmakers. Not obtrusive.

It can be said that he is very good at dealing with the world, and it is inevitable that some French people will be proud. The proud Gallic chicken can't go wrong.

The French all have a romantic feeling. They have been a big country in the world since modern times, and they used to be brilliant, so there is a bit of contempt in it.

Of course, this is facing strangers, and most people can't feel it, and only Zhao Hong, who has a careful observation, can find this kind of pride. It feels like this kind of pride is engraved in the bone.

Of course, after getting acquainted with him, he will not be stingy to communicate with you with a harmonious smile.

Jacob felt that the young man from Xiangjiang had great ideas. During the communication process, he talked eloquently, and many of his ideas on movies were consistent with his own.

He felt like meeting a close friend. He also watched Zhao Hong's movies, and he felt that they were all very good, especially the handling of details was nothing to say, but the artistry was not so good.

This time he heard through some channels that Zhao Hong was going to make an art film, so he tried his best to suggest to the chairman of the jury, Sidney Pollack, that Zhao Hong's film should participate in the film festival.

I also want to say that he also likes Zhao Hong's novels, especially "Life of Pi", "Butterfly Effect" and "The Bridge of Madison County".

There is also the more nationalized novel "Farewell My Concubine" which is also one of his favorite novels. One must know that Zhao Hong is well-known in Europe.

In terms of novels alone, he has won many awards here, including 6 international awards including the British Man Booker Prize and the German National Book Award. These awards were awarded last year, and he was invited again this year, but many pheasant awards were rejected. .

With the publication of a series of novels, Zhao Hong's reputation in Europe is still very good. Besides, many products of DreamWorks are selling well in Europe. At this time, the author of several comics is Hongye, so his pen name is also in this way known to the public.

And Zhao Hong's movies have not been without influence in recent years. His movies are also very popular here, and the video tapes of his old movies are very popular here.

Besides, the "Butterfly Effect" released last year opened the eyes of many European filmmakers, and now many people are following this movie.

It is conservatively estimated that in the past year or so, there have been at least dozens of movies about the Butterfly Effect, and even more TV series have cited it. It can be said that one movie has made Zhao Hong famous internationally.

He is not a newcomer in the whole world, he is a young and promising director, especially his influence in Asia can be called terrifying.

This is why Jacob strongly suggested that his film be included in the festival, and that it was selected as the opening film of the festival, which he did not see.

He told Zhao Hong that he must come to see it tomorrow.

Zhao Hong was thinking about the details of her meeting with Jacob. She really didn't expect that she would have such a great influence in Europe. She really only heard about him, but not about him. It was him.

The main reason is that he is very low-key. If he often participates in many banquets, award ceremonies, symposiums, school invitations, etc., his reputation will be raised to a higher level.

It’s just that Zhao Hong doesn’t want to do these things. He doesn’t pay much attention to his reputation. Now he writes novels and shoots movies mainly for his own interests. As long as he sees book fans and movie fans smiling happily when they see his works, he will be happy. Feel satisfied.

As for money, will he be short of it?
Besides, as long as you do your job well, the fame and fortune will come at your call.

Wouldn't it be nice to be a handsome man quietly?
Besides, if he wants to make money, the DreamWorks Group may more than double. It is not too easy for the whole group to find a good project, but he does not interfere too much.

Take comics as an example, can't he come up with a few more good ideas?Of course it works.

But what's the point?

It's nothing more than a little more numbers on his account, there is nothing surprising, and besides, he still likes the wonderful stories created by the comic team.

This is also the reason why he has increased the cultivation of talents. Otherwise, he would have to think of ideas or provide ideas for everything, and he would not be able to come to such a company for a long time.

The time of my own rebirth was only a few decades earlier. Even when I reached the node of the original time and space, I was only five or sixty years old at that time.

Since I have boxing skills, I have to live at least 120 years old, and I have not passed half of my life by then?

Of course, there is a system that will not be outdated by itself. With my own director skills, I can shoot an original script well, but a company will not be able to do it.

Without the ability to innovate, a company is close to bankruptcy.

Zhao Hong fell into a deep sleep in his wild thoughts. When he got up the next day, it was six o'clock in the morning. After doing some exercise, he woke Qiqi up.

After the two of them had a little breakfast in the hotel, Qiqi felt a little tired, so Zhao Hong asked her to rest in the hotel again, while she and Jiang Zhiqiang went to the film festival.

When Zhao Hong and the others arrived at the scene, they had already seen people coming in twos and threes. He felt that they had come a little early, mainly because eight o'clock was the opening time of the film festival.

Both Zhao Hong and Jiang Zhiqiang felt that it was a little early, but it was impossible to go back.

Feeling bored, Zhao Hong casually greeted some strange filmmakers, which surprised them, but they all exchanged a few words with him politely.

At this time, the advantages of language were revealed. Zhao Hong chatted enthusiastically with some people, but Jiang Zhiqiang just followed Zhao Hong in a daze. This made him decide to learn more foreign languages ​​after he made up his mind.

Not long after, Zhao Hong saw Jacob and he came up to say hello to him. The two continued to talk about the topic they had not finished talking about yesterday. The old man was an angry young man and was not interested in the Hollywood routine.

But Zhao Hong felt a bit sour in it.

　PS: Seeing that the new year is coming to an end, the days are so beautiful, I stay at home every day, I wish you all good health, good luck, good luck, Gong Xi Fa Cai.

　　Thanks again for everyone's support!
