Chapter 181

This welcome reception is jointly organized by the local government of Cannes and proposed by Gill Jacobs, chairman of Cannes Film Festival, presided over by Martin Scorsese, chairman of the current jury.

Nine members of the Judging Committee of the festival, including Alan Kono, Chiara mastoyani and Chen Kaige, also appeared one after another.

Of course, directors, producers, film dealers and stars from all over the world are indispensable. They are the most attractive group and the survival foundation of Cannes Film Festival.

Especially from all over the world and regions of the film business, it is hot!

Cannes Film Festival is still a commercial group after all. During the film festival every year, the turnover of film copyright trading is more than 200 million US dollars.

Interest is the driving force of social development.

"Hi, junk, it's really you!"

Just as Zhuke entered the reception and watched, he heard someone call his name.

Juke looked back and was happy. "Hi, Jordan! Old man, I didn't expect your great overseas distribution director, paramount, to show up in person at this Cannes Film Festival. "

Meeting Jordan, an old acquaintance, is something that Zhuke didn't think of before.

Every year, during the Cannes Film Festival, it can attract representatives of film companies and film dealers from all over the world, but Jordan is different! He is now the head of paramount's Overseas Distribution Department, one of Hollywood's top six.

The kind of big man with high power!

In principle, the representative attending the festival should not be him, but his deputy at most.

"Ha ha!"

With a glass of red wine, Jordan said with a smile to Zucker, "you are a famous American rich man who can condescend to come to Cannes. Why can't I be a part-time worker like me

"Oh, no, I'm here to compete!" Zucker is serious.

Suddenly, Jordan was dumb.

After Zucker's explanation, he suddenly realized, "sorry man, I've been wandering in France, Italy, Germany and other countries recently. I didn't go back to the United States. I don't know you picked up the guide tube again."

After a pause, he said, "well, that's right. Speaking of movies, your company's recent overseas release of "fatal bend 2" has made a good box office. My God! The overseas box office results of 67 million US dollars are dozens of times of the cost. "

Smell speech, Zhu Ke on the spot looked at Jordan teasingly.

You sigh a ghost!

My family's films, which are released overseas, are not all distributed by you paramount, and you are in charge of them.

Of course, we are all scene people, there is no need to expose.

What can Zhuke do? Of course, it's commercial mutual promotion!

"Wait a minute, old man. I'll introduce you to some friends."

Jordan is a person with a hot personality, and he didn't allow Zhuke to refute, so he went straight to the busy crowd.

After a while, Jordan led two old men to juke.

"Man, this is the famous Mr. Theo Angelopoulos!" Jordan Lang Sheng introduced.

Zhuke was immediately surprised and immediately saluted.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Zucker Wald, a new director."

no way out!

Although Zhuke is rich and has a very high social status in the United States, it's Theo Angelopoulos! The average movie audience may be unfamiliar with him, but you can't have never heard of him who is engaged in the film industry and who lives in this industry.

Born in 1935, he is known as the first person in Greek film!

In his decades of long career as a director, he has created more than 20 films and won many awards in Berlin, Cannes and Venice film festivals.

"Man, you are too modest!"

"Where are you a new director?"

Jordan said with a smile: "Mr. Angelopoulos, Mr. Zucker Wald in front of you is a famous talented director in Hollywood. His personal first film" Lola Run "won more than 14 million US dollars in North America box office and 130 million US dollars in the world box office."

Hearing the words, Rao is known as "the first person of Greek film" Theo Angelopoulos, who is also very shocked at the moment.

"No, no, Mr. Wald, you are a genius!" Angelopoulos praised.

"Where, where, I still need to continue to work hard."

At this moment, Zhuke, who always had a thick face like the city wall, was extremely modest.

On one side, Jordan, once again acting as Zhu Chuan, said: "not only that, Mr. Wald is also a screenwriter, producer and film company owner. The films such as Juno and the sixth sense, written by him, have achieved quite good box office results."

"Really?"

Theo Angelopoulos, it's a little exaggerated.

Compared with the identity of director, the identity of the boss of the film company shocked him even more.

meanwhile.

The old man who came with Theo Angelopoulos also looked at him with praise.

"Zucker, this is the Swiss national treasure actor - Mr. Bruno Ganz." Jordan said.

They shook hands and flattered each other.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Ganz."

"Nice to meet you, too, excellent young man."

For the name of "Bruno Ganz", Zucker is very familiar, and his starring "under the canopy of Berlin" is known as one of the 100 best films in Europe.

Well, he's 57 years old.

The movie audience and netizens of the great heavenly kingdom may not have heard of this name, but the other movie he starred in is almost a household name and world-famous.

——The destruction of the Empire!

Yes, Bruno Ganz is the actor of Hitler, the head of state in the movie "the destruction of the Empire", which is often teased, voiced and spoiled by netizens.

When the German Empire was about to fail, Hitler, the head of state, yelled at his incompetent subordinates in the air raid shelter, and the scenes of self reproach and roaring, and the tears of several female waiters, were regarded as classic scenes by many netizens!

"Why?"

At this moment, Zhuke couldn't help thinking, "I can still make the destruction of the Empire! I remember that in 2004, the announced cost of shooting this film was 13 million euro, less than 20 million US dollars. It can be shot completely. Well, I just don't know if there are problems with the script and copyright? "

In the following time, Zhuke, Jordan and the two old people had a very harmonious conversation.

From the dialogue, Zhuke also analyzed the reason why Jordan appeared in person at this Cannes Film Festival.

"Eternity and one day", directed by Theo Angelopoulos and starring Bruno Ganz, has entered the main competition unit of this Cannes Film Festival and will compete for the Palme d'Or with a number of outstanding films.

The film's copyright and global distribution rights have been included in Paramount's pocket!

Do you think Jordan, as the head of paramount's Overseas Distribution Department, can not appear in this film festival?

Once eternity and one wins the final Palme d'Or, Paramount will make more money!

"Hum!"

At this moment, a cold hum came into Zhuke's ear.

The second shift of the book was sent. Today, several book friends offered rewards. The Minister decided to open the third shift.
