Chapter 368 This Is the Influence of Hollywood's Top Directors

Gilles Jacob was sincere and decisive in his approach.

Softly banning Rain Wu and completely cutting off Cannes from him was the best result Gilles Jacob could achieve.

Although the European film industry is united, it is not so united that the three major film festivals are all in the same boat.

Even Venice and Berlin might be secretly happy behind the scenes, hoping that the influence and credibility of Cannes will be questioned, so as to increase the value of the two.

People in the same industry are enemies.

Gilles Jacob has done the best he can.

Wu Yuan is not the kind of person who will not give up even if he is right.

It is not good for Wu Yuan to discredit the credibility and influence of Cannes.

The most important thing is that Cannes is actually fair, and Rain Wu was just a clown.

If Wu Yuan lost the Grand Jury Prize at the 58th Cannes Film Festival because of Rain Wu's influence, then Wu Yuan might have a grudge against Cannes.

If it didn't work, then it would be a good thing to make money with peace.

He also promised Gilles Jacob that he would be a member of the jury of Cannes next year.

Wu Yuan said calmly on the phone: "Mr. Chairman, I understand what you mean."

"Cannes has gone through 60 years of ups and downs. I believe in an authoritative and fair international film festival like Cannes. I have always been honored to be a part of Cannes."

"I will not fire at Cannes in front of the media, but what the media want to write is not something I can control.

"It is even more impossible for me to speak for Wu Yusen and help him clarify."

"Silence is the biggest concession I can make for Cannes."

"As for my friends, you know, Hollywood has always excluded the European film industry, and I can't influence the entire Hollywood. What they want to say is not up to me. "

He also knew that without evidence, this public opinion storm would eventually come to nothing.

Perhaps Wu Yusen would lose face around the world, and Cannes would be ridiculed by Hollywood, but it would not bring Wu Yusen to ruin.

If you don't kill the snake, you will suffer from it.

Under the situation where there is no way to kill Wu Yusen with one hammer, Wu Yuan does not intend to jump out and confront Wu Yusen head-on.

The current public opinion scandal is enough for Wu Yusen to drink a pot.

In Europe, Cannes will soft-ban him. Although Venice and Berlin are watching the fun, after knowing Wu Yusen's "despicable" behavior, although they don't say it, everyone's impression of him has also dropped sharply, and they will hate and spit on him.

In the future, Wu Yusen wants to continue to rely on his previous European influence. I'm afraid it's basically impossible.

Oh, Wu Yusen didn't have much European influence to begin with. Influence.

Compared with the Sunglasses King who is also from Hong Kong Island, Wu Yusen's influence in Europe is simply the younger brother.

And in Hollywood, it goes without saying.

Although Hollywood does not pay much attention to the moral level of directors, it does not care whether you are a director with good personal ethics. What matters more is whether you can make a hit commercial film or an award-winning art film. Only the results speak.

However, Wu Yusen had already disappeared from Hollywood a few years ago and was kicked out in disgrace. Now he can't even think about returning to Hollywood for development.

After experiencing this round of black material exposure, Wu Yusen's global career can be said to have suffered a devastating blow.

What artists hate most is the private tricks and shady dealings that affect the fairness of awards.

With such a stain on him, Wu Yusen's future development will face hell mode.

"Thank you. "Hearing that Wu Yuan gave face to Cannes and chose to remain silent, Gilles Jacob was very grateful, and his tone was full of sincere friendship: "Daniel, I know that you are a truly noble director, unlike a villain like John Woo."

"As long as you don't speak, leave the rest to me."

"I am very much looking forward to meeting you in Cannes next year. I believe that with a noble judge like you, Cannes next year will be extremely exciting."

Hehe, not adding insult to injury is noble?

Wu Yuan didn't care about Gilles Jacob's praise at all.

"Mr. Chairman, is there anything else?"

"If there is nothing else, I still have some things to deal with here."

"It's okay, then you go ahead. "Gilles Jacob hung up the phone with a smile.

Holding the slightly hot phone, Wu Yuan let out a long breath.

With a happy mood, he took out his laptop and went over the wall to browse the Internet.

Sure enough, Hollywood caught the scandal of Cannes and it was like a climax. It criticized Cannes for being unfair and criticizing Wu Yusen's mean behavior.

If Cannes still needs to protect Wu Yusen to prevent him from ruining Cannes' reputation, then Hollywood really has no worries.

"Mission Impossible 2" was released in 2000. It's a thing of the past. Now Wu Yusen has no status in Hollywood and no one will speak for him.

Directors, producers, and actors from all walks of life have been on Twitter and other social media, complaining for Wu Yuan and feeling sad about the unfair treatment he has suffered.

Is it because Wu Yuan has such good relationships?

Of course not, it's just a pity to kick a fallen dog.

Who is the European Big Three? They have never been very fond of mainstream Hollywood filmmakers. At least the first-line directors and actors in the mainstream circle rarely get awards with enough gold content in the European Big Three.

Their home court is the Oscars.

Now that Cannes, which has always been aloof and unwelcome, has been exposed to a scandal, it is really like Li Yunlong attacking Ping'an County. Everyone wants to help out.

Wu Yuan hasn't said a word yet, but his colleagues in Hollywood are already indignant, making Wu Yuan laugh and cry.

"Now, Wu Yusen's reputation is really going to be stinking on the streets."

He touched his chin and thought with some gloating: "Does the "The Crossing" have a chance to be approved?"

"Are there any suckers who dare to invest several hundred million yuan in Wu Yusen to make this big bad movie?"

It's hard to say, it's really hard to say.

I told you to do something bad to me in Cannes.

Wu Yuan felt like he drank a glass of ice cola on a hot day, and his whole body was refreshed.

At the same time, people in the domestic circle were also frightened by this sudden public opinion storm.

In the past, they all knew that Wu Yuan had a great influence in Hollywood and that he had a high status in Hollywood, but they didn't have a clear concept.

Now they have.

When the news of Wu Yusen suppressing Wu Yuan in Cannes broke out, half of Hollywood supported and solidarized Wu Yuan.

From Peter Jackson, who directed the "Lord of the Rings" series, and the famous director Spielberg, to Hollywood first-line actors such as Tom Hanks, Depp, and Brad Pitt, they all spoke publicly for Wu Yuan.

Wow, each of these names listed separately is a big shot that no director or actor in the mainland can reach, but they all spoke for Wu Yuan.

Is this the influence and status of a top director in Hollywood?

Half of Hollywood jumped up and down for a little unfair treatment?

For the first time, all the insiders in the domestic circle who paid attention to this matter felt Wu Yuan's international status so clearly. An unprecedented sense of oppression made them immediately put Wu Yuan on the list of people who should not be provoked.

This is a real big shot!

I can't afford to offend, and I don't dare to offend! (End of this chapter)
