Superstars In Parallel Time and Space

Chapter 881 Cannes Film Festival begins!

"Have you heard? Chen Mubai seems to be making a new movie again!!?"

"Isn't it, so fast? Is the previous filming of "Iron Man" finished? Does it mean this movie, or is it because some editors have dug up the previous news, and self-media people often do this kind of thing, just To gain attention..."

"No, no, it's true, Mubai Entertainment personally announced that Chen Mubai's new movie will hit the top three European awards!"

"I'm stupid, really!?"

Netizens were shocked when they saw Mubai Entertainment's announcement.

Many people didn't believe it at first, but they didn't confirm the fact until they went to WeChat and saw the message sent by Mubai Entertainment himself.

However, the repercussions are still great.

After all, "Iron Man" has just been filmed, and I don't know how much it has been filmed. After all, it has only been a few months. Even if the filming is finished, post-production will still be required. Is there really time to shoot another movie right away?

It is still a film that wants to hit the three major European film festivals, this is not an ordinary work!

In terms of quality, it must be very good. It is no less difficult to win an award-winning work than to shoot a good high-grossing commercial film. Awards are a relatively subjective thing. If you want to win the favor of all the judges, you have to shoot out a deep core.

This kind of difficulty is no easier than winning a high-grossing movie. Anything to become the top is a simple matter.

"I have a question. Chen Mubai is shooting a new movie, so he is making two movies at once. Can the quality keep up?"

"I'm also curious, if the schedule is so fast, will the quality of the two movies not be good?"

"No, I believe that Chen Mubai will announce this matter with absolute certainty. "Iron Man" has been shooting for several months. Everyone knows that the most important thing for science fiction movies is post-production. It’s all about making special effects, and Chen Mubai only needs to wait for the special effects to be completed to see if he is qualified. There is relatively more time, and he can use it to make another movie.” Someone who knows the film and television industry came out to speak out.

"I'm not curious why he made a new film, I just wonder if he is so sure to hit the top three in Europe? This is not an ordinary film award, it is the most difficult..."

Some fans helped Chen Mubai to refute: "Although it is difficult, don't forget that he won the Golden Lion Award in Venice when he debuted. It is a bit more difficult, but it is not impossible. I believe in his talent!"

The rest of the fans pinned to the top under this message: "I also agree..."

In addition to Chen Mubai's fans, many passers-by actually agree with Chen Mubai's talent. If he really wants to win awards and make a movie, it is still possible.

After all, he has won countless honors, sweeping all the domestic awards, and winning Venice and Oscars abroad, and there are many other international A-category film festivals, such as the Tokyo International Film Festival, the Shanghai International Film Festival...

However, in terms of gold content, the Golden Lion Award in Venice and the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, Best Director, and Best Actor are even higher!

In fact, at the Oscars, the only thing he was short of was the statuette (Best Picture). It must be very exciting to be replaced by someone else, after all, he also won the gold-worthy Oscar.

However, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the Oscars this time are indeed unfair.

Chen Mubai was not angry, but everyone did not expect Chen Mubai to be so tough, and would choose to be tough and tough on Oscar.

Since ancient times, there has been no absolutely fair thing. Even this kind of film festival is still the same. As long as the quality of the film meets the standard, it depends on the relationship. Whoever has a strong relationship will win the award.

He is weak in the United States. Even though he has produced excellent works, he has no background and is still not as good as the local capital. It is normal to be hacked.

There have been similar situations in the past, but others chose to swallow their anger. After all, they still have to hang around here, so it is not easy to turn their faces.

But Chen Mubai is different, he is a Chinese star himself,

The American market was not the only market he valued, that's why he didn't give Oscar face, at worst, he didn't want this award in the future.

Someone started it, and people in the film and television circles of other countries also wanted to make an excuse for their own future rights and interests. After all, Chen Mubai is a prominent figure, and he might be able to stir up a storm, otherwise they may also encounter the same situation in the future. Case.

Some celebrities who supported Chen Mubai encountered the same situation as him. They lost to their opponents in the award selection, not because of quality but because of relationship.

This is why the Oscars used their connections but couldn't quickly lower the heat. After all, every day of heat will be detrimental to the Oscars. More and more people will question the authority, which will have a great blow to the reputation of the awards.

Fame and fairness are precisely what they value the most. Otherwise, they would know that the awards are black, and some outstanding works may not be selected, which will lead to the worse and worse quality of the participating works, and this is the beginning of decadence.

This is also a game between two kinds of capital. On the surface, the forces are Chen Mubai and Oscar, but behind the scenes, there are people supporting both sides, so the matter will be deadlocked.

However, no matter how popular a matter is, there is a time limit, so the Oscar matter will eventually come to an end, and both parties will suffer losses.

For Chen Mubai, the ending is completely acceptable.

Gaining the support of the masses at the cost of giving up the Oscar will provide him with a lot of popularity for his future works, which is completely worthwhile and in line with the plan he envisioned in his mind.

Some people speculate why Chen Mubai suddenly shoots new works so closely, which is not in line with his previous style of work.

This move must be meaningful, everyone is guessing, someone has analyzed Chen Mubai's intention.

"You said that Chen Mubai suddenly wants to compete for the awards of the film festival, or the top three in Europe. Is it because he wants to prove his ability and face the Oscars?"

"It's not impossible, Chen Mubai thought to himself, since you hacked me, I'll slap you in another way. I didn't win the Oscar, but I won the three major awards in Europe, which are more professional. His strength? On the contrary, Oscar lost his authority and turned into a shame..."

"That's true. I suddenly hope to see Chen Mubai succeed. It will be very interesting for Oscar to become a shame~"

Some people quarrel, some people think this is a transitional analysis.

"I think you guys are thinking too much. Even if Chen Mubai won an award in one of the three major European film festivals, it doesn't mean that the Oscars are hung on the pillar of shame. The judging criteria of each film festival are different. It’s nothing, otherwise he is already in the Golden Lion Award, according to this theory, Oscar is already on the pillar of shame..."

"Be rational. It's a bit too much to say that the Oscars are on the stigma. However, Chen Mubai's intentions must be vented. Since the Oscars failed to let him win the best picture, then he will change to another film festival to compete for awards. To prove myself, I think this is reliable, besides, it is only talking about winning the award, not the best picture, the difficulty is different, no one is sure that they will win the award, right?"

One netizen boldly imagined and guessed:

"That's the truth, but I'm thinking of a possibility. Maybe Chen Mubai wants to win all the awards of the three major European film festivals at once, and then use this to mock the Oscar judges. The preferences of the three major film festivals are also different. If he If he really did it, maybe it can explain something, Oscar’s blackmail this time will definitely be hung on the pillar of shame in history!"

"I have won the three highest awards, but I can't win the Oscar, so it must be the Oscar's problem!"

This netizen's speculation has been seen by everyone, but basically no one believes it.

It would be nice to be able to get one, but want to get three?

Do you really think it's so easy to get?

Even Chen Mubai only said that making a film will win a film festival award, but did not say that he would win all of them. This kind of speculation is definitely overinterpreted!

"Don't think about it, these books are impossible, no one can do it."

"Yeah, although I also support Chen Mubai and hope that Oscar will be infamous forever, but I don't want to think about this situation."

"If it is possible to win all the awards for best director and best actor in the three major film festivals, I think it is very possible, but it is really impossible to win the best film of the three film festivals, and the difficulty is too high."

"Film has a history of hundreds of years. There are only 8 people who can win director + actor awards at the three major film festivals, let alone the highest award for best film. It may not be the best film, it shows how difficult this award is, if Chen Mubai can really do it, he will be the first person in the world's film history!"

Although some people guessed Chen Mubai's real intention, but no one believed it at all, it was a bit too absurd.

 …

AMC.

"Have you seen the latest response from Mubai Entertainment?" Caitlin asked Trillis lightly.

"I see." Trillis smiled sarcastically.

"Chen Mubai is insane. He really thought that this would lead to hype for the Oscars. In the end, he was the one who got hurt. The Oscar judges were very angry. Works related to Mubai Entertainment will never have the chance to win awards in the future."

"I have to say that Chen Mubai's behavior this time made Oscar a little passive, and he has been criticized internationally."

"It's a good thing for us. It further reduces their influence in the United States. Oscar still has a great influence in our country. If God wants to kill people, he must first make them crazy."

"Does he really think he can get the top three in Europe? Even if he gets it, the outside world will not question the authority of the Oscar because he won the award. Maybe it will be a bit hot in the past few years, but in a few years, the Oscar It’s still Oscar, and this matter has been exposed, this is the bottom line.”

Oscar will not do anything because of this incident. In two years, everything will return to the original point, and time can solve all problems.

"Do you think he can win the award?" Caitlin asked back.

Trillis put away his smile and said, "Although he is an opponent, his talent really attracts attention."

"I hope he can win awards and continue to impact these film festivals, because works with this theme have a limited audience, so the influence and popularity will be limited, and the same is true for the box office. It is a good thing for us that he does not make commercial films. In order to be competitive, I hope he can indulge in awards and not shoot commercial movies."

"Even non-mainstream commercial films such as "I'm Not the God of Medicine" and "When Happiness Comes Knocking" can get such a high box office, and the box office of pure commercial films will be even higher, especially since he is still growing, he is a strong competitor. "

Chen Mubai has released a lot of works in the United States in the past few years, which indirectly increased the competitiveness of their local works. In the past, a work might earn 100 million box office, but since Chen Mubai exported his works, it may have 80 million. The influence is still there, especially the influence is still expanding.

In the beginning, Chen Mubai's works didn't get much box office. As a result, more and more of them broke through 200 million. Even works that were not starring or directed by him could break through 100 million. Trillis was really worried about Chen Mubai's commercial success. Achievements and influences on film.

Therefore, when he learned that Chen Mubai was going to compete for the award, he was very happy.

Compared with other people, Chen Mubai's influence is obviously the greatest. The scripts of those high-grossing Chinese movies are all written by Chen Mubai.

"That's right." Caitlin nodded slowly, and then said, "Then we'll force him to do it."

"Add heat to Chen Mubai's words, put him on the shelf, and force him to win the prize."

Now that Chen Mubai has already spoken out, they will help him heat up the matter a little more. If he does not win the award by then, he will inevitably be ridiculed by the public, so he can only prove himself and become more and more successful on the road of literary and artistic films. go further.

"Okay!" Trillis nodded!

"The Oscar Organizing Committee is very dissatisfied with this matter and requires us to continue to deal with this matter."

"Do it." Caitlin nodded and ordered.

This must be done, after all, this time Chen Mubai's trophy was hacked, it was the result of their capital working behind the scenes.

Now that the ending has been decided, let’s just ignore it, otherwise, wouldn’t it offend people, and it’s hard for Oscar to explain, these relationships can still be used in the future.

This time, it is a two-pronged approach. On the one hand, it will reduce the heat of the Oscar incident, and on the other hand, it will push Chen Mubai up against Mubai Entertainment's announcement. If he fails to win the award, it will cause ridicule from the crowd.

Caitlin had already made a plan.

"Remember to join forces with several other companies to make things reach their peak in a short period of time. In this way, Chen Mubai will become the target of public criticism, and the attention of netizens will also be diverted."

Trillis's eyes lit up, this is killing two birds with one stone!

seconds!

 …

Directors Guild of America.

"Too arrogant!"

"Yeah, it's simply contemptuous!"

"He deliberately stepped on us, and now he still has to do this kind of thing with rhythm, isn't he afraid of failure?"

"Young people don't know the heights of the sky and the earth, and I think I can teach them a lesson."

Several people were discussing Chen Mubai's behavior this time.

They are the judges of the Oscars, and they are very angry at this time.

Chen Mubai threatened to hit the three major awards in Europe, which is really slapping them in the face.

This is to tell everyone that he has been treated unfairly and wants to prove himself to get back at other film festivals!

At the same time, it also tells the general public that the Oscar Film Festival is not as good as the three major European film festivals!

Because, from his point of view, Oscar did not win an award, but being able to win the three major awards in Europe can defeat Oscar, which shows that the influence and authority of Oscar in his mind is inferior to that of the three major film festivals.

This makes the Oscar judges, why not angry?

Judging from the professional nature of films, each of the three major film festivals in Europe has its own characteristics. In fact, in terms of real gold content in the film and television industry, the three major film festivals are indeed more authoritative than the Oscars.

But, Oscar is smart!

They do not compete professionally, but overtake in a roundabout way.

What is the most important thing about cinema these days?

Of course it is influence and box office, and these need the support of the audience!

Therefore, they market in front of the general public, let more people know about the Oscar Film Festival, and export it with the powerful strength of the United States and Hollywood.

Facts have proved that they did it. Oscar is indeed a very important award in the eyes of ordinary people. Even people who don't know much about movies have heard of this name more or less.

On the contrary, because of the professionalism of the three major European film festivals, ordinary people don't know much about them, and they are not as good as the Oscar Film Festival in this respect.

This strategy made Oscar famous and famous all over the world, and it also made the film festival more and more influential.

Chen Mubai's behavior this time directly slashed at their most important place, causing the public to question this award, and at the same time, it can also make the Oscar's influence not as good as the top three in Europe.

This is what Oscar valued the most, but they were punched by Chen Mubai, so they were very angry.

"Let those lobbyists be responsible for this matter. Since we helped them, they can't watch the show." The president's tone was cold, but dignified.

"In response to Chen Mubai's response this time, we need to discuss a cooperation plan and make a move together."

"In addition, we have paid such a high price for them, and they have to take some action to show that they will lower the influence of Mubai Entertainment's works, lower the schedule of Huaxia's movies, and put the shows in garbage time. Chen Mubai dares to do this , you have to pay the price.”

This is a means to deal with Mubai Entertainment in terms of interests, which is in line with capital.

Although Chen Mubai's impact on Oscar is not a loss of money, in the long run, it is a loss that cannot be recovered even if a lot of money is spent. These lost popularity and doubts will take a long time to digest.

They helped these capitals, so these capitals should stand on their side and attack Chen Mubai with all their strength. They have a lot of cinema resources in their hands.

Another replied: "Okay."

"I'd like to see how domineering Chen Mubai said, if he can't do it then, how will it end." Someone sneered.

"Isn't he just hyping and wanting to increase the influence of "Iron Man?"

Once "Iron Man" is released, the film schedule is not high, and the number of shows during garbage time will have a serious impact on the movie's box office.

Although Oscar can't let all the capital do this, but the veteran capital tycoons who participated in this incident are very powerful, and they still have a certain right to speak.

For the fermentation of this incident, both sides are secretly wrestling.

 …

The two parties come and go with various rhythms, and the topic still does not go down, but there is an upward trend.

Chen Mubai's response was also pushed up. Once his new work does not win an award, it will cause a huge whirlpool of public opinion, and he himself will also be attacked.

The current rhythm has been changed, it is useless to be shortlisted for the main competition unit, you must win an award, and it must be an award full of gold!

Although Chen Mubai never said what award he was aiming for, everyone knew it was the best picture.

If he didn't win the best picture by then, but he won other things such as best actor and best director, it can be justified, after all, he didn't specify the awards.

But if you don't win the prize, then the public opinion will really explode. After all, capital games, this kind of rhythm can still be brought up.

After a while, the netizens were not so enthusiastic about the hot topic, and the popularity dropped rapidly, and the matter was about to subside. Perhaps it would have to wait until Chen Mubai's new movie was released to start a discussion again.

A piece of news brought things back into the vortex again!

The Cannes Film Festival has begun.

"When Happiness Knocks on the Door" was shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Cannes Film Festival!

This film won many awards at the Oscars but lost the best picture. It is also because of this film that it caused such a big disturbance, and once again entered the internationally renowned film festival!

It is still one of the three Cannes Film Festivals!

"Isn't this the Big Three in Europe that Chen Mubai wants to attack!?"

Some netizens who eat more melons quickly recalled the news two months ago.

"Could it be that Chen Mubai is going to get an award for this movie?"

"It's not impossible. After all, this movie is really excellent. Although there are not many elements in it, it is very warm and fully meets the aesthetic needs of the film festival judges. Even though it was hacked by the Oscars, it still has awards such as best director and actor. It is enough to describe the excellent work.”

"No, no, no, Chen Mubai is definitely not using this work to challenge for awards. Since he said he would make a new work to challenge, he will not break his promise. This may be an alternative plan!"

Some fans of Chen Mubai denied that "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" is the work Chen Mubai said. He is a very sincere fan. He grew up with Chen Mubai all the way, and saw him step by step from a newcomer to the peak of China, and then to the world. To Chen Mubai I still have a certain understanding of his behavior, Chen Mubai is definitely the kind of person who will do what he says, and will not deceive people about this matter.

If Chen Mubai really uses this work to win awards, Mubai Entertainment will never say that Chen Mubai will make a new work to win awards!
