Chapter 2139： The film exchange meeting begins

Two days later, the new Hollywood International Film Exchange Conference officially began.

The exchange meeting was held in the outdoor theater, and the huge venue could hold tens of thousands of people.

When Li Fan and Hu Fei and his party arrived at the venue, the entire venue was already crowded. There were actors who came here to find chances, ordinary tourists, and a large number of reporters carrying various equipment.

A temporary semi-enclosed stage was built in the center of the venue. Although it is a temporary stage, it is large in size and extremely luxurious.

Several large LCD screens stand around the stage, and people from all four directions on the scene can see the images on the LCD screen clearly.

On the LCD screen at this time, some situations of this film exchange meeting are being played simultaneously, which is equivalent to a trailer.

The tourists are mainly Americans, but there are also many foreign tourists, and naturally there are tourists from China.

The tourists from China are not all here. They are all here specifically for this film exchange. Some are just coincidences.

They also didn't know that Li Fan was among the representatives of Chinese filmmakers this time. Neither the Chinese Film Association nor Hu Fei and other filmmakers had revealed to the outside world that Li Fan was the representative of filmmakers this time.

This is what Li Fan meant. He didn't like being the focus. If everything goes well this time, he will not interfere with anything at all, and he will only really accompany him throughout the whole process.

Even if there are accidents and changes, if he needs his assistance, he will only assist behind the scenes more.

Strictly speaking, he is not a representative of a filmmaker.

Tourists in China are discussing with each other.

"Our country has a very strong representative lineup this time. Hu Fei, Kong Xinlin, and Guo Tai are all top directors, and Yin Changming and Zhu Zehua are also top screenwriters."

"Of course, a strong lineup is needed. Such exchanges will be difficult to achieve complete harmony, especially for filmmakers from the host country of the United States. They believe that they are the No. 1 movie country, and will often show some sense of superiority, consciously or unconsciously. Who knows they will Don’t make a sudden attack and deliberately find topics to embarrass us? This requires a strong lineup to deal with."

"Oh! I have to admit that in terms of movies, especially blockbuster films, we are indeed no better than the United States. Take this Hollywood film center as an example, our country's film center is far less famous."

"In general, our films are indeed not as good as the United States, but this is a comprehensive comparison in many aspects. It does not mean that our filmmakers are worse than the American filmmakers. If they are really embarrassed, it may not be us who loses."

"This is true. Our filmmakers are also very good. If American filmmakers really embarrass us on purpose, don't persuade us, just do it with him!"

"Yes, just do it!"

"..."

Except for tourists from China, the rest of the tourists are naturally talking about it at this time.

"A total of 12 countries participated this time, all of which are big movie countries. I don't know what excellent scripts will appear this time? This year's global box office movie "Alec King" comes from the film exchange held here last year. Go. At that time, no one realized that it would become the box office champion this year. I wonder if such a script will appear this time?"

"The possibility is true, but not great. However, anyway, it is quite exciting."

"I'm even more looking forward to something more interesting to happen. If it's just the academic exchange of professional knowledge, as well as the display and review of scripts and films, it would seem a little flat."

"Then let us take a good look, maybe, it won't disappoint us."

"..."

...

Before the exchange meeting officially started, there was a red carpet session.

Now, representatives of filmmakers from various countries have begun the red carpet walk. The cameras in the hands of a large number of reporters are creaking and blaring, and the flashing lights are dazzling.

The first appearance was the representative of the host American filmmakers, followed by the representative of the Chinese filmmakers.

Li Fan did not go to the red carpet, he did not like to walk the red carpet.

Representatives of filmmakers from each country will go to the interview area after the red carpet walks to accept a brief interview with the live host.

The filmmakers’ answers were funny, humorous, and witty. Applause and laughter were heard from time to time at the scene, and the atmosphere was very lively and enthusiastic.

After filmmakers from all countries walked through the red carpet, today's exchange meeting was officially started.

The content of the exchange meeting mainly includes academic exchanges on professional knowledge, comments and discussions on scripts or films, etc.

The films reviewed and discussed are all films released in the past year. They are not necessarily all big-selling films. Some of the films that are not popular will be reviewed and discussed by everyone.

The scripts reviewed and discussed are all newly created scripts by filmmakers from various countries, and these scripts have not yet started to be officially filmed.

There are movie investors on the scene, and if an investor has fancy a script and decides to invest in the film, the contract can be signed on the spot.

This is also one of the biggest highlights of the scene.

In addition, there will be new movie trailers. For upcoming movies, trailers can be shown on-site. This is an excellent opportunity for publicity.

Up to two movies can be previewed in each country.

Therefore, filmmakers from various countries have brought movie trailers. Hu Fei, Kong Xinlin, Guo Tai and others naturally also brought two movie trailers to be released.

Li Fan looked at it and felt good.

The process of the whole exchange meeting is relatively loose, and everyone is more casual. After all, this is a networking event, not an awards event.

Hu Fei, Kong Xinlin, Guo Tai and others are greeting directors and screenwriters from other countries and greeting each other. Obviously, they all know each other.

Li Fan was in a corner alone, neither looking for others, nor for others to look for him.

He didn't know other people, and some had heard of names, but had never seen them, so naturally they weren't friends. The other people were not like him either, and naturally there was no reason to come over and say hello to him.

Li Fan was also happy and leisurely, and the old gods were nurturing them.

After everyone's greetings, they gradually entered the topic. First, everyone had academic exchanges and discussions on some professional knowledge, and the atmosphere was more harmonious.

After listening to Li Fan for a while, he got up and left temporarily. Hu Fei, Kong Xinlin, and Guo Tai are enough for the current affairs. He does not need his help. It is the same whether he is on the spot or not.

Representatives of filmmakers from various countries were walking around, so it was not abrupt for Li Fan to get up and leave, and it did not attract everyone's attention.

The exchange will continue. After the academic exchange of professional knowledge, the filmmakers began to comment and discuss some of the films released in the past year.

The atmosphere is still harmonious.

But this harmony is destined not to last forever.
