Latest URL: If the dilemma of art films is one of the products of the times, then the same is true of online streaming media. This is also a fixed feature of every era, just like a product of nature, there must be a detoxification method next to the poison, and the problem always comes with the solution.

The dilemma of art and culture will inevitably find a solution. More importantly, is streaming really the answer?

Thierry stared at Lanly's sight, filled with all kinds of chaotic thoughts, his eyes became more and more interesting, "So, is it really so beautiful? Everything is just for the development of art. Change, so that art films can get a broad and bright development space?"

Thierry’s question made Lan Li chuckle, but he was not surprised at all. Compared with Berlin’s decisiveness and Venice’s hesitation, Cannes’s attitude was more than Lan Li’s expectations, but I seriously thought. Think, Cannes can develop to the present position, Giles and Thierry's vision is absolutely indispensable, then their attitude towards new things is worthy of careful consideration——

Although online streaming is a form of resolutely combating exclusion from the perspective of French culture, it is even more resolute than Germany; but Cannes will never miss the changes and opportunities contained in it, which may change the entire industrial structure. time.

"Don't believe me, believe in the facts, believe in the interests." Lan Li did not try to defend himself, because there is no need, business is the best choice in business, "compared to words, numbers are the most reliable."

Lan Li’s mouth raised a shallow arc, confidently and calmly, “We can sit down and slowly discuss the cooperation agreement: what movies can be on the platform, and what can’t; movies need to be shown in theaters for a few weeks before they can land on the platform. What agreement should be followed; after the film is on the platform, how the profits should be distributed and how the resources should be allocated...and so on, we can all negotiate face to face slowly."

Thierry knew that these rhetoric would inevitably portray a vision that was too beautiful to be realistic, and the actual situation would inevitably be a different picture; but he also had to admit that Renley’s words were correct, rather than just being here in the sky. It's better to sit down and speak with numbers.

So, the key question now is, should he give Lan Li a chance?

Cannes is not Berlin or Venice. Compared to Berlin, they are more open and changeable. Compared to Venice, they do not need to be constrained by power and have more autonomy. Of course, Cannes also has its own problems, from the internal protests and checks and balances of the French film industry, as well as Cannes's future development prospects. These conditions must be considered.

It is precisely because Thierry understands how magnificent and shocking things are and how far-reaching they are involved, he can clearly understand the silence in Berlin and Venice. Go deeper.

Now it seems that what Lan Li is planning is far beyond imagination.

Thierry looked at Lan Li carefully. He thought he knew enough about the young actor, but he was still surprised when he got along with him.

"I guess, you are indeed open to more choices now." Thierry did not respond positively to Lan Li's proposal, but made a little teasing with the words Lan Li was interviewed at the beginning, and then transferred his words. " So, does this mean you are willing to accept more challenges?"

It is impossible for Thierry to give a positive response on the spot. He inevitably needs time to think and time to discuss. The situation at the Cannes Film Festival cannot be simply decided on the spot. Renly knew this, and it was the same in Berlin and Venice, and it was only the first conversation today, but he was a little disappointed in Thierry's handling of such abrupt change of the subject.

However, Lanly's surface was not obvious, he just cast a meaningful look at Thierry, and the deep meaning made Thierry comprehend himself. Then, Lanly went on to say, "Of course, I am very Being willing to open up possibilities and try different things is also one of the privileges of actors."

Whether it was Thierry who found Renly through Roman, or Thierry nodded and agreed to Roman's invitation, it means that Thierry also wanted Renly. Just now Lan Li had revealed his hole card, and now it was Thierry's turn, and the position of the game was quietly changed.

However, compared with Lan Li, Thierry is not "requesting" but "inviting". There is a subtle difference in posture, which can be seen from his expression.

"What do you think, the chairman of the Cannes Film Festival Jury, how about this challenge?" Thierry's mouth has a small smile, without extra words, those bright eyes are expressing his pride and pride——

Looking at the world, there is no other person who dares to make different attempts and challenges so boldly and so adventurously, apart from Cannes.

Lan Li was a little surprised--

Last year, the chairman of the Venice Film Festival Alberto Barbera personally arrived in New Orleans and sent an official invitation to Renly, hoping that the "Blasting Drummer" would go to Venice to participate in the exhibition; at that time, Alberto also mentioned that Renly was the chairman of the Venice Jury Proposal, but only for discussion.

Now, Thierry Fumao at the Cannes Film Festival has also issued an invitation, and things suddenly become interesting.

Why use "fun" to describe it?

First of all, the position of the jury of the three major European film festivals itself represents the taste and style of the film festival. Every jury must be selected carefully, and the chairman of the jury is even more important.

An excellent chairman of the judging panel can often represent the standard of the entire film festival, because the aesthetic taste of the chairman will largely determine the attribution of the final award; and a bad chairman of the jury may not only represent mediocre aesthetic taste , At the same time, it is very likely to become the victim of the jury members' wrestling, and completely lose the right to speak. Then the opinions within the jury will be violently divided, and the final selection result will be unsatisfactory.

Directors and producers are often the best candidates for the chairman of the film festival jury, because their work is in a position to control the audience; in addition, they choose actors and choose screenwriters, composers, writers, art directors, etc. Waiting for the same need to take risks, because they are more accustomed to the "single-soldier" mode.

The chair of the jury of the three major European film festivals, the last time an actor was selected was Catherine-Deneuve (Catherine-Deneuve) in Venice in 2006; Isabella-Rosellini in Berlin in 2011 (-Rossellini); Cannes in 2011, Robert De Niro.

Secondly, the jury of the three major European film festivals often means resume and ability. Although some unexpected names appear in the list of the jury, or even names that have not been heard before, on the whole, their artistic style in the industry And ability must be recognized to a certain extent.

Otherwise, even if you join the judging panel, you won't have the right to speak in the end, and it is very likely that you will just watch the crowd.

Age is not an absolute factor. After all, there is always no shortage of geniuses in the art field; but it is undeniable that this must be one of the reference factors.

For example, in the year that the three above-mentioned actors serving as chairpersons of the jury took over such an important task, Catherine Deneuve was sixty-three years old, Isabella Rossellini was fifty-nine years old, and Robert De Niro is sixty-eight years old.

For another example, since the millennium, the age of the youngest jury chairman of the three major film festivals was Li Gong in 2000, 35 years old in Berlin; Li Gong in 2002, 37 years old in Venice; Cannes is Luc Besson in 2000 and Quentin Tarantino in 2004, 41 years old.

Perhaps, age does not mean anything in the field of art, but in social life, it means resumes and qualifications, which no one can ignore. At the turn of the century, Berlin and Venice had close ties with the Chinese film industry, which broke their fixed shackles and made bold attempts.

If it is not the chairman of the judging panel, but just a member of the judging panel, then the age factor may weaken a lot, but even so, the constraints of social rules still exist.

Since the 21st century, members of the Cannes Film Festival jury, younger than 30 years old, are the only Canadian director Javier Dolan (Xavier-) who was exceptionally promoted to the jury this year. He also refreshed the three major European films. The youngest record of the festival jury.

Giles Jacob and Thierry Fumao showed a rare courage-in fact, in the jury this year, there is also Jack Gyllenhaal, who is only thirty-five years old. Fourteen-year-old Sienna Miller ~www.novelhall.com~ coupled with Havel, Cannes has indeed shown courage. This is also the boundary that Berlin and Venice dared not easily break, which once again proves that Cannes is now The detached location.

But now, Thierry is inviting Renly to be the chairman of the jury!

By the way, Renly and Havel were the same age, both were born in 1989, and Renly was seven months later than Havel, who had just turned 26 in March.

Once things happen, Cannes will easily detonate a global topic frenzy. Renly will not only become the youngest chairman of the jury in the history of the three major European film festivals, but also the first person under 35 in history. The chairman of the jury is as sensational as the 2000 Berlin Film Festival invited Li Gong to be the chairman of the jury!

The interesting part is here. Although Li Gong was only 35 years old, she has been in the industry for 13 years. As early as 1993, she became the second starring film in history to win the highest awards in the three major European film festivals. The actress, which also means that she has a deep foundation in the industry.

But what about Renly? Lan Li, who is under 26, is now the chairman of the judging panel. Is it too hasty?
