Chapter 693: I Became Depressed (Asking for Monthly Votes)
The Jury Prize is different from the Grand Jury Prize. The Grand Jury Prize is equivalent to the second place, and its status is second only to the Palme d'Or.
The Jury Prize is a special award, that is, when a judge particularly loves a certain movie and strongly recommends it, he may consider giving this award as a compromise.
In terms of status, the Palme d'Or> Grand Jury Prize> Director Award=Actor Award> Jury Prize.
Hao Yun was able to win the award more because he was favored by a small number of judges.
But no matter what, winning the award is a good thing.
Any award in the main competition unit is more prestigious than not winning it.
I don't know what happened, but Hao Yun has won the award twice over Wang Jiawei.
The Sunglasses King kept clapping with sunglasses on, and Hao Yun couldn't see if he was gritting his teeth.
In fact, he respected the Sunglasses King.
This time in Cannes, he had many exchanges with the Sunglasses King and Zhang Manyu.
After all, everyone is Chinese.
Zhang Manyu is almost equivalent to retiring from the film industry, which is quite a pity.
In fact, when she first debuted, she was just a vase. No one could have thought that after so many years, she would win all the awards she could.
After receiving the certificate, Hao Yun did not open it immediately, but saved it up and returned to the hotel.
He opened it together with the Best Director Award at the Media Awards last time.
If he opened both together, maybe the things he opened would be better.
Okay, Hao Yun admitted.
Because he was in a hurry to take An Xiaoxi away at that time, and he was too excited after the successful escape, he directly forgot about it.
At the celebration banquet after the award ceremony, Hao Yun got a lot of attributes.
Mainly from directors and actors.
There was no way to save them all, so Hao Yun could only keep putting them on himself and then slowly digest them.
His mind was in a mess.
He touched his forehead with his hand and felt hot.
Maybe he would be the first poor guy to be shot in the head because of his active thinking.
Cannes is not short of beauties, and this is a country known as the country of romance.
The sex culture is famous all over the world.
The French are much more open than other countries. It can even be said that sex is a way of life.
A young and promising director like Hao Yun has received no less than ten invitations in this regard.
There are men and women.
From 40s to 50s, and from 10s to 20s.
It's not even a hint.
Some people just go straight in.
As long as they nod, they can go to the hotel to "make love" all night.
Hao Yun had to euphemistically say that his girlfriend was a jealous person, and the kind who couldn't live without him.
He was severely despised.
After finally returning to the hotel, Hao Yun took out two certificates and opened them.
[Congratulations to the host, winning the "7th Chinese Film Media Awards·Best Director Award" certificate, which can store 450 attribute points]
[Congratulations to the host, winning the certificate treasure box (medium quality)]
[Open the treasure box]
[Congratulations to the host for opening the certificate treasure box (medium quality), and getting director +5 (permanent), the script "Twelve Citizens" ("Twelve Angry Men"). ]
A new script, it seems to be an adapted script.
Hao Yun has seen "12 Angry Men".
It tells the story of a boy who grew up in a slum and was accused of murdering his biological father. The bystanders and the murder weapon in the case were presented in court with irrefutable evidence.
The 12 people who served as jurors in this case had to discuss the case in the jury lounge before the case was closed, and the discussion results must be unanimously passed before the case could be officially closed.
Considering Hao Yun's identity as a law student, it is reasonable to adapt this classic old film that won the Berlin Golden Bear Award.
However, this movie is not without difficulty.
On the one hand, there are differences in the legal system, and localization is difficult.
On the other hand, although the location of the movie is simple, it has extremely high requirements for the actors.
Twelve actors.
They must all have certain strengths. Any failure will affect the overall quality of the movie.
However, these are not difficult for Hao Yun.
He plans to invite Che Hao and even Chen Xingliang to serve as legal advisors.
The difficulty of adaptation will be greatly reduced.
Then select actors from the drama circle to perform. Not only are the pay low, but the lines are stronger than one another.
Hao Yun has a good relationship with all the major drama troupes. With the relationship of Jiang Wen or Feng Yuanzheng alone, he can gather all the people in an instant.
Let's not say it surpasses the original version, but at least it won't be a bad movie.
After opening this, open another one.
[Congratulations to the host, you won the "60th Cannes International Film Festival·Jury Award" certificate, which can store 550 attributes]
[Congratulations to the host, you won the certificate treasure box (medium quality)]
[Open the treasure box]
[Congratulations to the host for opening the certificate treasure box (medium quality), and got director +10 (permanent), script/soundtrack "Manchester by the Sea". ]
Huh, although it didn't give a high-quality treasure box, it's actually no different from a high-quality treasure box.
The best script award won in Cannes before had a capacity of only 600, and this time the jury award, although it was a medium-quality treasure box, it also had about 550.
Moreover, it also gave 10 points of director attributes.
As for this "Manchester by the Sea", the name sounds like a foreign script.
Probably similar to "Whiplash".
Hao Yun didn’t watch 12 Angry Men carefully. He is a law student and filmmaker. He has watched 12 Angry Men countless times.
If the new script is well adapted, it will be easy.
The key is Manchester by the Sea. Hao Yun read the script for one night.
Damn, I was depressed after watching it.
I was in tears on the plane the next day. I was so depressed.
The script of the movie is very good. There is no obvious regional cultural attribute. It is not difficult to translate it into Chinese.
The male protagonist caused the death of two children due to a mistake, and he fell into endless sorrow from then on.
The location can be a northern port city, Dalian or something else.
The mistake in the original work was to forget to put the fireproof board of the fireplace. We need to find one that suits the living habits of China.
In fact, the most troublesome thing is to choose the actors.
The male lead must be Hao Yun himself. He finally came across a script that can win awards.
Although he may be a little young, he can wait.
Anyway, there is no schedule for a while.
It is completely possible to wait three years later, when he is close to 30 years old.
Then make a more vicissitudes of life.
As long as the acting skills are in place, there will be no problem with persuasiveness.
The main reason why Hao Yun values this script is that the actor has a lot of room to play.
He even feels that his acting skills are not good enough now.
It is impossible to act while shooting.
Hao Yun plans to spend two or three years to initially integrate his performance style.
Then he will win the Best Actor Award.
As for the heroine, An Xiaoxi probably can't play it, but it depends on her progress.
The most difficult actor is actually the nephew.
There is really nothing outstanding about young actors in their teens and twenties.
Hao Yun can only take it one step at a time and spend more time looking for them.
After returning to China, Hao Yun made up for the domestic premiere of "Bullfighting".
This movie was released simultaneously with Cannes.
With the name of Hao Yun's new work, the theaters gave it face, and with the selection of the main competition unit of Cannes, the box office on the first day was several million.
In the next few days, as word of mouth fermented, the box office did not fall much.
Next is to spend money on publicity.
Guangguang Media invited many big names in the industry and held a lively event.
A "Jury Award" was blown by them as if they had won the Palme d'Or.
Wang Changtian rewarded Hao Yun with 5 million yuan, and also held a celebration banquet to give red envelopes to others.
Others did not get as much as Hao Yun.
Hao Yun was not very polite, nor did he share it with everyone. This was what he deserved.
An Xiaoxi did not attend the premiere and the celebration banquet.
She went on a trip with Aunt Liu.
Hao Yun did not expect that she had not had enough fun after accompanying her to Chengdu.
I felt a little empty in my heart.
It was like you ran to buy your favorite breakfast early in the morning, but found that the breakfast shop was closed.
Hao Yun went to her house and found that everything was still there.
It didn't look like she ran away suddenly.
Hao Yun did not change the script of "Twelve Citizens" and took it directly to Chen Xingliang.
Chen Xingliang was quite surprised.
In his opinion, the academic issues involved in this script may be naive, but considering that there are few movies related to law, he was interested.
He even called a few students to discuss this as a topic.
Hao Yun has already discussed the adaptation rights, so he doesn't have to worry about others copying his script - he is quite looking forward to someone copying it without knowing the consequences, so that his seniors can have something new to do to relieve their boredom.
All the seniors who participated in the discussion are doctoral students, and there are even lecturers in the school. He is the only one who is studying for a master's degree.
In addition to perfecting the script, Hao Yun is also trying to show off his face in front of his tutor.
He missed too many classes, and although he could complete the homework assigned by the teacher, it was inconsistent with his ideal pursuit of becoming Chen Xingliang's last disciple.
If something really happens in the future, he will be killed for the sake of justice.
Therefore, legal films are something that Chen Xingliang can pay special attention to.
