First of all, this guy speaks with a strong British accent.

It should be British Nagada silver.

Secondly…

Xu Xin vaguely felt that this person's name sounded familiar.

But I can't remember where I heard it.

However, Xu Xin was not surprised that this colleague knew him.

The actual situation is that as his reputation has risen in Europe and after he won the Best Foreign Language Film Oscar, his name and appearance have become qualified to be remembered by others.

So, after coming back to his senses, he smiled and stretched out his hand:

"Hello, Mr. Director. Are you British?"

"Irishman."

The handsome old man, who looked far from ugly, smiled and held his hand.

Xu Xin nodded and asked curiously:

"How will you be here?"

"I'll take a walk."

Pointing to the sea in front of him that was glowing with silver in the early morning light, the handsome old man Martin shrugged:

"I just arrived last night. The weather is nice today and the sea is beautiful, so I came to take a walk. I didn't expect to meet you. Did I disturb you?"

"Of course not. I also like to look at the sea, be in a daze, and let my mind wander."

"Hahaha, do you have to relax in the morning?"

Hearing the other party's rhetorical question, Xu Xin used the same shrugging gesture as him and smiled:

"A good day needs a relaxing start, right?"

"Haha, you are right, Mr. Director."

He seemed to agree with Xu Xin's words and nodded:

"I like your works very much, especially "Heart of the Sun", and I am also looking forward to "Breaking Silence" this time. To be honest, your works are also one of the main reasons why I came to Cannes."

As he spoke, he nodded politely to Xu Xin:

"Then I won't disturb you, sir. I wish you a nice day."

"Thanks."

Xu Xin responded politely.

After watching the other person walk towards the beach, he sat back on the beach chair.

With some curiosity, he took out his mobile phone and searched for the other party's name.

Only then did I discover that the other party had only filmed three works.

Of course, then again, although the other party's works are relatively few, Xu Xin will not choose people based on "quantity".

What's more, I have actually watched one of them.

"Killers Have No Holidays"

He has seen this movie.

My general impression...the script is very well-conceived.

Let's just say...this name sounds familiar.

It turned out to be the director of this movie.

Looking away from the encyclopedia information on his phone, he glanced at the other person's retreating figure.

Then he withdrew his gaze and continued to lie on the beach chair and enjoy the warmth of the early morning in Cannes.

Just a small episode.

…

There were obviously a lot of tourists in Cannes on the 11th.

Xu Xin spent about an hour basking in the sun on the beach, and tourists around him had already appeared in every corner of the beach.

He didn't stay any longer and got up and turned around to go back to the hotel.

As a result, as soon as he crossed the road and entered the hotel, he suddenly saw a familiar figure.

It really looks familiar, or... you can tell who it is at just one glance.

Ginger pattern.

Jiang Wen was standing in front of the trash can in the hotel with a middle-aged man, smoking and talking about something.

Xu Xin was not surprised, after all, "One Step Away" was also one of the films screened in Cannes this time.

After thinking for a while, he walked towards the other party.

Although the two of them have never met... in the true sense of the word.

He has rarely attended award ceremonies in recent years, and his social circle is actually very limited. Although he is very familiar with his second brother, he has never met Jiang Wen in "real person".

If you bump into Yu Qingyuli, you must say hello.

Otherwise, during the Cannes Awards ceremony in a few days, the second brother will come and he will not be able to deliver.

As he walked up, Jiang Wen seemed to feel someone looking at him. When he turned his head, he looked at Xu Xin.

Xu Xin nodded with a smile and said proactively:

"Can I call you big brother?"

Jiang Wen was stunned.

Then his eyes were full of surprise.

But these emotions soon turned into smiles:

"No problem. If you call him second brother, he must be the eldest brother when he calls me. From now on, I will call you Xiaoxu, okay?"

"Eh."

Xu Xin responded with a smile, and the two of them held their hands together.

However, perhaps because of Jiang Kui, the two naturally became close to each other.

Unlike many strangers who have just met, no matter how enthusiastic they are on their faces, there is still a layer of strangeness in their hearts.

Then, Jiang Wen introduced to him:

"Marco, producer and producer of "One Step Away"."

Xu Xin instantly understood who this person was.

Jiang Wen has his own film and television investment company called "Biyilehu", which he opened in partnership with his friends.

And this friend is Marco.

At the same time, the other party is also the producer of "The Sun Also Rises" and "Let the Bullets Fly".

These two people have always been inseparable when it comes to film investment and distribution. It must be normal for them to follow them now.

"Hello, Director Xu."

"Hello, Mr. Ma."

After the two shook hands and got to know each other, Xu Xin asked:

"Brother, where are you planning to go?"

"Go shopping. I came early yesterday and stayed in the hotel for a day to adjust to the time difference. Now I am very energetic and plan to go shopping. I haven't been here for a few years. What about you? Just came back from outside?"

"Go for a walk on the beach."

"Okay... have you brought the movie resources?"

"Uh... no."

Hearing this, Jiang Wen nodded with regret:

"Okay, then let's do it tomorrow. I just looked at the movie manual and your movie is scheduled for tomorrow. I'll go and check it out tomorrow. When will they come?"

"Before and after the opening ceremony."

"become."

Jiang Wen nodded happily:

"Are you free at noon? Let's have a meal together?"

"Okay."

"Then let's just say that we went for a walk. Let's add WeChat and contact you when I come back."
