The premiere just ended. A young reporter wearing eyes attended the press conference and immediately entered the hotel where he was staying, sat on the chair in front of his desk, like an old monk entering a meditation, closed his eyes and motionless, and his brain began to run at full speed. Combined with the plot of "The Ten-Side Haze" and some situations at the premiere, he fantasized about how a new film that was very popular at the Cannes Film Festival should be treated.

Whether the facts are true or not is not important. The most important thing is that the manuscript must cause strong responses in the country.

The young reporter opened his eyes at this time, picked up the pen in front of him, and the tip of the pen fell on the manuscript one after another, making a "rustling" sound.

"Yesterday, I was fortunate to witness the premiere of "The Horizon" on site with my own eyes."

Because the manuscript was sent back and the time difference was not calculated, it would take the next day to be published, so the young reporter specially adjusted the time.

"It's really a blessing in my life. Because you won't be at the premiere, you will never know that a martial arts film can actually cause such a sensation in the international film industry at the Cannes Film Festival!"

Having written this, the young reporter stopped writing a little, organized the language, and continued to write: "Applause almost overturned the ceiling of Lumiere's hall. If Mr. Lumiere could see this scene, it would be shocked?"

"The audience, audience from the country, audience from France, audience from the United States, and audience from the world, are all applauding!"

"Hands, the slap is red! The slap hurts! The slap is numb! Still non-stop! As the back of the male lead and the female lead lying on the snow, the sad scene freezes on the screen. With the extremely magnetic and penetrating singing of the ending song singer Catherine Batel, as the subtitles roll, the audience stood up and applauded, and the applause was like a storm, as it seemed to overturn the dome of the Lumiere Hall, and gradually turned into a rhythmic high-five, five minutes, ten minutes, twenty minutes... It seems that it will be drummed forever."

As if all this had been witnessed with your own eyes, the words written by the young reporter were filled with true feelings, and even made people feel the touching scene at the premiere of Lumiere Hall.

"Many viewers burst into tears unconsciously, were infected by the story, and were moved by the film!"

Having written this, the young reporter remembered that he had to appropriately praise the actors. Cannes was far away from the East, and the reporters had a tacit understanding with the producers. What he wanted to write was not entirely based on the pen in his hand?

The young reporter thought for a few minutes and continued to write.

"The female lead's face was filled with tears, and the tears reflected her charming smile in an oriental way; the two male leads seemed a little at a loss when they experienced such a scene for the first time; Director Zhang had seen the world, and was moved by this scene, and he led his three actors to bow to the audience frequently to thank them, but the audience still refused to give in and slapped his slap even louder..."

Young journalists have been living abroad in recent years. Hua Tuanjin of foreign entertainment journalists has seen too much praise, and they are inevitably learning a little.

Now it's just right.

But young journalists know that it is not enough to have audiences alone, and they also need to include some heavyweights, especially big names in the international film industry, so that they can highlight the extraordinaryness of the film and the main creators.

"This is what happened yesterday at the global premiere of "The Ten-Side Haze" at the Cannes Film Festival. Then many international friends sent congratulations to the crew. The chairman of Hollywood Relativity Entertainment Group and American billionaire Ronan Anderson held director Zhang's hand tightly, and was moved by the film, and regretted that he missed the North American copyright of "The Ten-Side Haze"..."

"Quentin Tarantino, chairman of the jury of this year's Cannes Film Festival, hugged Director Zhang tightly... Oriental Films are so popular here, and that special pride surged, permeated, and rose in the hearts of reporters..."

I don’t know if I was a little tired after staying up late to write articles or if I was moved by myself, the young reporter’s eyes were a little red at this moment.

He went to the bathroom to wash his face, and after he came back, he continued to think about how to write later.

There are ordinary audiences and big names, right! There are also opinions from foreign media! Especially colleagues!

The young reporter was inspired in an instant, and the "rustling" sound of notes falling on the manuscript sounded again.

"I interviewed several foreign colleagues on the spot. A French reporter from Le Figaro said: "The Horizontal Haze" is much better than "Hero". Whether it is the picture, fight, or the expression of characters and human nature, it is innovative. He said that he has become a fan of Director Zhang."

"And the young female reporter of "German Film Weekly" believes that "The Horizontal Haze" is the best film made by Director Zhang: "If you participate in the competition unit, you can definitely get the 'Palme d'Or!"

Anyway, I don’t have to pay taxes when bragging, and I have never mentioned the names of two reporters, and young reporters are not afraid of missing out.

The young reporter's writing became smoother and smoother, and the fantasy scene seemed to be right in front of him.

"The press conference after the premiere has almost become a commendation meeting for global journalists to affirm the film. Director Zhang was enthusiastically sought after by media reporters. Later, he attended the party organized by the film festival and received an invitation from the international large entertainment group Relativity Entertainment. Ronan Anderson, chairman of Relativity Entertainment, invited Director Zhang to go to Hollywood after the Cannes Film Festival to negotiate continued cooperation between the two parties..."

This manuscript was written very smoothly. After the young reporter finished writing it, he carefully proofreaded it twice, then contacted the producer's press officer and passed the manuscript to the other party via email.

The two sides have reached a tacit understanding, and the press releases sent to the country must be reviewed by the producer.

The young reporter's manuscript was not only successfully passed, but was also praised by the producer's press officer and asked him to send it to the country immediately so that he could be reported as soon as possible.

The young reporter was busy until midnight and finished his day of work. He was very tired and mentally exhausted, but the efforts he had done this day were worth it.

Ronan didn't know at all that his name had become a tool for others to increase their value. Even if he knew it, he would just laugh it off. This kind of situation that appears on big people may be more frequent in the future.

Besides, I made so much money through two of the "Heroes" and it would be reasonable to let them borrow their names.

The response of "The Horizontal" after its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival is not good, at least not as good as the situation when "Hero" was released in North America, and even the reputation gap is a bit big.

The only positive reviews in this film are exquisite pictures and gorgeous colors, while the rest are basically negative.

If a commercial film wants to attract audiences to the theater, then the visual effect is absolutely important. Needless to say, the pictures of "The Deep Haze" are simple and elegant. Almost every shot is quite exquisite, enough to be framed into an oil painting.

But it is not enough for commercial films to have pictures alone, unless they can reach the level of "Avatar".

What's more, "Avatar" also has a storyline that is understandable.

Because of the relationship between exchange rates and global market acceptance that can never be ignored, it is difficult for Eastern movies to make such a large investment as Hollywood movies.

The special effects screen is the most inaccurate investment link, and the exquisite screen is all made of money.

As for the plot of "The Horizontal Haze", no one cares.

After watching it, Ronan was able to make a rough judgment that the second and their investors would become veritable winners with the North American and international copyrights sold at high prices, but Sony Entertainment, which spent more than 100 million soft-girl coins to buy out international copyrights outside Oriental and North America, and Lionsgate Pictures, which spent 20 million US dollars to buy North American copyrights, are very likely to suffer losses.

At least within the past two or three years, this movie project will be in a loss state.

Ronan did not see Navas of Lionsgate again after the premiere, so he asked Connie to ask. After seeing his premiere reputation, Navas returned to Los Angeles as soon as possible.

It is estimated that Lionsgate also evaluated the premiere, but the evaluation results were not ideal.

This film actually shows that it is not easy to make a good commercial film, and it is not as simple as many art film directors describe it.

The high investment in commercial films determines that it must gain recognition from more people, which is obviously more difficult.

Luo Nan also recalled what was the next film of director Zhang after this film? Is there enough market value?

Is it "Golden Armor"? Or "Three Guns"?

It seems that these are of very limited value for international distribution companies such as Embassy Pictures.

Especially "Three Guns", it's so hard to believe that this is a work directed by a director of director Zhang's level.

Ronan quickly confirmed something that his cooperation with Director Zhang could come to an end.

The day after "The Haze" was released in Cannes, Ronan went to the trading venue for a special trip, but did not find any videos in his memory. What interested him was Park Chan-wook's "Old Boy".

Once upon a time, Korean films developed rapidly by drawing on the Hollywood model. After 2010, many excellent works have appeared.

But Korean films have just emerged, and it is difficult to enter the North American market. In some ways, Korean directors and production companies are similar to neighboring countries. As long as the film can enter the North American market, it will be a victory, and the rest are easy to say.

Especially the neighbor's two consecutive martial arts masterpieces caused a warm response in North America, almost causing Korean media to shout that Ang Lee and Zhang are Koreans...

The movie buyer of Embassy Films came to Xiudong Film, the production company of "Old Boy", and made progress quickly.

Korean films are learning from Hollywood in many aspects. The director has no right to speak in film copyright transactions. Embassy Pictures quickly negotiated with the copyright holder of "Old Boy" to buy out the North American copyright for $250,000 and obtain the remake authorization for $100,000.
