Chapter 633 Hypocrisy

In order to realize the definition of "everyone is equal" in the century-old film art history, the presidium of judges of the "Century Filmmakers" will most likely consider this point carefully, and it will become an added component of the impression of "God's Salvation".

This is not Schuppen's random guess, but the practice of "Century Filmmaker" since the first session.

Donald, who was sitting between Cesare and Janser, subconsciously looked at Cesare, and asked softly:

"You have heard the news?"

In the center of the stage, Catherine is still talking in her sexy voice: "Some movie fans were very unconvinced, thinking that the United States should belong to a free and democratic country, where people are equal and free, and there should be no Discrimination. At the 21st Annual '100 Years of Filmmakers' awards ceremony, our first black director, Chris Wilson, proved this argument wrong with "The Blacksmith's Son"..."

Her words caused light laughter from tens of thousands of guests at the scene, Cesare also laughed very appreciatively, and applauded along with the audience.

When Donald spoke, he didn't turn his head. It seemed that after a while, he smiled and nodded lightly, without denying:

"I heard Dylan mention something."

Cesare has been in the industry for many years and has a very deep network. Donald and him are also old friends who have known him for many years and know him quite well. But until now, he didn't feel that Cesare's network was deeper than he imagined.

The "Dylan" he mentioned in his mouth, Donald immediately thought of who was able to have friendship with Cesare, and who happened to be able to tell Cesare such a "news" in advance, except for Dylan from Fernando's family, Donald couldn't imagine Who else can come out.

The Fernando family is the actual controlling shareholder of "Standard Financial Information" and one of the well-known consortiums in the United States. Its family is extremely influential and famous. Most importantly, Fernando was one of the families who put forward the slogan of "Century Filmmaker" and invested in the original capital. Family, until now, its descendants still have a profound influence on the "century-old filmmakers".

If Cesare's news came from the people of Ferlando, it's no wonder that he was talking with Borgia and Round Island Company about sending "God's Salvation" to the "Century Filmmaker" to participate in the campaign. Such great confidence.

Even at the expense of his own reputation and career, he insisted on entering into a betting agreement with the film studio. It is obvious that "God's Salvation" can be nominated for the "Century Filmmaker" award.

Now that Catherine mentioned the theme of equality in this year's "Century Filmmakers", Donald seemed to understand something.

He was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Jiang Se again.

I don't know how long ago I learned about Cesare's news. The discussion and decision on the theme of "Century Filmmaker" obviously cannot be negotiated overnight.

When filming "God's Salvation", Jiang Se had the heart to replace Laura. At that time, Donald saw it and thought that with Cesare's character, even if he appreciated Jiang Se's intelligence and valued her acting skills, he would not It may be easy to give birth to the idea of ​​​​temporarily replacing the leading actress.

Not to mention that for this matter, he caused a lot of trouble, made his movie full of variables due to the change of roles, and was willing to face the pressure from investors for Jiang Se.

The friendship of adults has never been pure, especially in such a circle, it is inevitable that some interests will be mixed.

Jiang Se was just a newcomer at that time, even if he had been nominated in the French Film Festival with "The Devil" and showed his prominence, all this was not worth betting on his reputation for the sake of friendship to Cesare .

Donald had some sympathy for Jiang Se at that time, thinking that her final actions would not change any results.

He has been in the industry for many years, and he is used to seeing the heart of stars who want to get ahead and get good roles, and he has also seen the efforts of many unknown actors to become famous.

In the European and American entertainment circles, there are countless people who work hard like Jiang Se, even if she is very smart and hardworking.

Unless she is a lucky person favored by God and has an opportunity that belongs to her, she will rise with the conditions of time, location and harmony. But at that moment, Donald did not think that Jiang Se had such a special opportunity.

But in the end, beyond Donald's expectations, Cesare acquiesced in her move when he was not very optimistic about it. In the end, he even really wanted to change the heroine, and even got into a dispute with the investor for this.

Donald didn't know what was going on at that time, but he had no objection to this result.

Compared with the cooperation with Laura, Donald prefers Jiang Se's character. She is smart but not pretending to be smart. She always cooperates with him just right, knowing when it is time for her to behave, and she is always so decent.

So when it came to the replacement of the heroine, because of Jiang Se's special view, coupled with his personal relationship with Cesare, he did not hesitate to stand on the same front as Cesare. The cooperation between Asia and Huandao persuaded the investor to agree to a temporary replacement.

From the change of roles in "God's Salvation" until the movie is about to be released now, Donald has always believed that Cesare's move to replace Laura was due to his dislike of Laura's performance on the set and the relationship between him and Jiang Se. friendship.

He felt that Jiang Se was a very smart girl who seized the opportunity in time under the circumstances.

It wasn't until now that Donald discovered that Jiang Se was able to successfully get the role of Lani in "God's Salvation" not only because of her intelligence, acting skills, and not only because of her friendship with Cesare, but also because of her Because she is very lucky, because of her identity as a Chinese.

If at that time Cesare had already inquired about the theme of "a century-old filmmaker" that will be discussed together with the film this year, then these areas that many viewers consider her weak point may become an important plus point for "God's Salvation" .

The "Hundred Years of Filmmakers" is held every three years, and all the films that go to participate are high-quality products. The annual awards are limited, and the positions of classic films in the sacred auditorium can only be reserved for a few successful people.

Every year, there are always a large number of excellent works that will miss the general, and because of this, there will always be regrets for many works.

"God's Salvation" is not bad, but it will always need some special bonus items to escort it if it wants to break through the competition of a thousand master-level works.

Donald was well aware of this little trick, but he felt that this scene was too real, and the atmosphere of Vanity Fair was so thick that it was distorted, which made him suffocate for a moment.

He glanced at Jiang Se. This girl smiled reservedly, elegant and reserved. Even though she was completely different from the blond beauty in the Western impression, she could still see her good self-cultivation and temperament. She heard that she and Chesa Lei had a brief conversation, but did not ask rashly.

This is what Donald admires most about her. She is very knowledgeable, and she doesn't lose her sense of proportion because of the cooperation.

Even if it was because she showed closeness to her, she didn't deliberately create a topic in front of the reporter because of this.

He feels a little pity for Jiang Se, this is really a very good kid.

"According to Catherine's words this year, the '100-year-old filmmaker' may talk about the topic of 'equality'."

He knows that Cesare's method is the most correct and effective. This approach will benefit the film and several key personnel, and Jiang Se will not lose the slightest. She will use this film to improve her reputation in Europe and the United States. Status, and even her status and reputation in China will be improved.

But he still vaguely felt a little unbearable, that kind of feeling, like the friendship he took seriously, seemed to be covered with the shadow of this promise, and it no longer seemed so pure.

Donald has worked with Jiang Se for half a year, and he likes her cautious approach to filming.

When he got Xilin's script, even though there were not many scenes, he still remembered how she walked back and forth in the snow, letting her body form memories.

Staggering, staggering forward, but full of determination, it easily reminded him of when he was just entering the industry when he was young.

When he was young, he valued friendship, and he was hurt by friendship because of it. It was not a good feeling. Donald was rarely moved with compassion, and explained to Jiang Se:

"Maybe you've been busy with movie promotion and other matters recently, so you haven't had time to listen to some interesting rumors."

He smiled, while Cesare turned his head and was stunned for a while, and after a long time, a faint smile appeared in his gray-blue eyes.

"From the very beginning of the establishment of 'Century Filmmakers', there has been an interesting saying that in addition to paying attention to the development of films, they also care about environmental protection, human rights, women's rights, charity, etc."

Every three years in the "Century Filmmaker" event, there are always topics that are closely related to these important things, "and each session of the "Century Filmmaker" chairman jury will subconsciously Preference will be given to excellent and outstanding works that fit the theme."

Jiang Se is not stupid. Hearing Donald's words, he already vaguely understood what he meant.

"Take Chris Wilson's "The Blacksmith's Son" mentioned by Catherine earlier. It was one of the anti-racism works of the "100-year-old filmmaker" back then."

"The Blacksmith's Son", both the director and the starring actors, are all black. Although Chris Wilson's work broke through the encirclement and became the final winner, "The Blacksmith's Son" itself is quite extraordinary and enough to become a classic. There are rumors that this is because this work just fits the factors of "anti-racism" in the past, and finally became an indispensable classic work in the sacred auditorium.

It is also a famous case that people like to mention in private when they discuss the topic that movies that fit the theme of "100-year-old filmmakers" will be particularly preferred.

When Jiang Se heard Donald say this, she couldn't understand what he meant. She remembered what Donald had asked Cesare before, and Cesare's answer was very meaningful.

He had heard this matter mentioned by his friends, and he didn't know when he 'heard' it, maybe a year ago, when he decided to send "God's Salvation" to the 'Century Filmmaker' to participate in the election, maybe it was Earlier, who knew?

She smiled slightly, and when she learned about this kind of thing, she felt more calm. Even when she saw Cesare's smiling eyes, she could return a seamless smile, as if she was an old friend who was intimate. The previous courtesy was closer.

The smile on Cesare's face deepened.

Catherine on the stage had finished her foreword, and gave up the position to the well-known Italian tenor male singer. The sound of nature from her hometown made Donald's frowning brows soothed for a moment. After the wonderful song, it officially entered the awards ceremony. part of the ceremony.

This year's century-old filmmakers are the first to be nominated for the best art design. Every scene in each of the shortlisted works has appeared on the big screen one after another, and finally five works were shortlisted.

The next nominee was the best screenwriter. After a wave of surprise and admiration, the winners went on stage with great joy to receive the extremely honorable and affirmative trophy.

It wasn't until the host of the conference invited special guests and started announcing the award for Best Actress that the audience suddenly became excited.

This time, the one who was invited to the stage as the award presenter was the director Owen Robbins, whose works had been nominated for the best film twice. After he took the stage, thunderous applause came from the audience.

He came to the stage to thank him first, and then said:

"With the advancement of film technology, what is presented to the audience today has more possibilities. But no matter how the times and technology change, the performances presented to the audience by the leading actors still require hard work to create miracles! The following is' A Century of Filmmakers' Best Actress nomination."

As soon as his words fell, the screen of the first shortlisted film suddenly appeared on the big screen behind Owen Robbins.

At this moment, Tao Tao's heart was in her throat, she bit her lip, and held her breath.

Whether or not she can be nominated for the heroine of the "Hundred Years Filmmaker" held every three years is obviously very important to every actress.

Even if it is only nominated for the best actress in the "Hundred Years of Filmmakers", it is enough to make each of the shortlisted actresses famous all over the world.

The final name and figure of the person who finally won the award will appear in the classic pavilion of the sacred auditorium for every latecomer to look up to and become a monument in his career. The authoritative certification of "a century-old filmmaker" is enough Leave a colorful stroke in the life of every girl who wins the award.

Not to mention that after winning the award, the acting skills will be affirmed, the net worth will rise, and the salary will be rewarded thousands of times. Regardless of fame and fortune, it is something that everyone cannot refuse.

In his heart, Xia Chaoqun actually knew that such an award would hardly fall on Jiang Se, but when Mo Anqi clenched her fists, she asked in a trembling voice:

"Sister Xia, do you think Thurse can be nominated? Shouldn't we prepare an extra copy of our speech as a candidate?"

When she was talking, Xia Chaoqun felt so heavy in his heart that he couldn't even say a word.

Two more in one~!
