Latest website: Renly Hall serves as the chairman of the jury of the three major European film festivals. This is undoubtedly a bold attempt to challenge the traditional ideas of the film industry; but considering Renly’s current brilliant achievements and status in the industry, things It becomes more interesting. Is it worth trying?

Of course, it is not only the film festival organizing committee that needs to bear great pressure, but also Lan Li also needs to face the critical eye of the industry peer review and provocation——

As an actor, it is a kind of talent and ability to be able to perform and to be able to make breakthroughs on the performance level; but as an artist, aesthetic taste, artistic heritage, film understanding, etc. are another matter, which tests comprehensive art. Quality is definitely not as simple as imagined.

From the perspective of Lan Li’s current status and situation, his performance talent has been recognized globally. This is not a controversial fact; but even so, Lan Li, who is less than 26 years old, is still at all times. Moment provokes the sensitive nerves of every film practitioner.

Think about it like this:

If Lan Li continues to be an actor, pure and focused on exploring the limits of his expertise, then he can easily win applause and cheers, Jack Nicholson, Meryl Streep, Daniel -Dai-Lewis, these old actors are all like this-none of them have served as judges for the three major European film festivals, even if there are no members of the jury, they always focus on their own performances.

If Lan Li jumps out of his comfort zone and tries to make attempts in other areas of the art field, then the provocations and challenges he will face will explode tenfold or even a hundredfold - he has achieved such a superpower at the age of twenty-five. High achievement, does this mean that Lanli's artistic heritage can stand the test? This will inevitably lead to doubts and challenges in all aspects, and it is possible that Lan Li will become the public enemy of the film industry.

Unless it is Lan Li who is willing to follow Meryl Streep, after more than 40 years in the industry, she accepted the invitation of the chairman of the Berlin Film Festival jury in 2016. Then, regardless of the result of her selection, Her artistic taste and industry status will not be challenged.

But now Thierry Fumao’s goal is to make a point, a shocking point, let Renly, who is 26 years old next year, serve as the chairman of the jury of the festival.

To put it ugly, Thierry just put the blue gift on the fire and roasted it.

Not to mention Lan Li, even senior filmmakers who have been in the industry for many years are not necessarily willing to take over the position of chairman of the jury. This is indeed glory, but it is more pressure, for every filmmaker, it is the same. This is especially true for Lan Li.

Pressure, this is equal to both parties, and it is possible that Lanli still needs to bear more pressure-it is the truth that the coldness can be overcome from the heights.

Thierry didn’t get Renly’s response in the first time. This was unusual for Renly. This made him more confident. Even Lanly was shocked by his proposal, and even a little bit astonished. Yeri's mood became cheerful: the whole world was able to kill Ren Li by surprise, and it is estimated that only the Cannes Film Festival was the only one. This pride and self-confidence was shown in Thierry's gestures.

"I know I know that the pressure is very great, it may be beyond imagination. But we sincerely send out the invitation, I hope you can consider it." Thierry expressed "comfort" in a caring gesture, but it was revealed between the lines. Out of the pride of making such a decision at the Cannes Film Festival.

Renly would not deny it. This was indeed unexpected. Compared to Venice, which was flashing in the gossip, Cannes was not joking, it was a real invitation; but when he noticed Thierry’s pride, Lanly was I couldn't help but raised the corners of my mouth, "Of course, this is an honor but also a pressure. When Alberto sent out the invitation, I clearly realized this. This is definitely not as simple as I imagined."

Thierry’s smile was a little stiff, he didn’t conceal it—but he didn’t know whether he was unwilling to conceal it or unable to conceal it. He immediately understood: Alberto Barbera, the chairman of the Venice Film Festival, was always thinking. How should we get Venice out of its current predicament?

Could it be that Lanly is Alberto's answer?

More importantly, this means that Venice is ahead of Cannes. This is the most shocking and unexpected thing about Thierry.

Is it possible that this is just Lan Li’s smoke bomb? Just to fool yourself?

But thinking about it seriously, Thierry denied this possibility. On the one hand, Renly was not necessary at all, and on the other hand... Renly’s actions in the past year have indeed triggered a lot of discussion in the European film industry. Renly’s current status and influence, Venice’s attempts to win over Renly’s is no longer normal-after all, even Cannes has begun to make Renly’s ideas.

So, what should he do?

The rapids retreat? Said that Cannes doesn't care about Renly at all, they refuse to compete with Venice, which will reduce their style, and then choose another trustworthy judge to show that they are still better than Venice; or are they going against the current? Compete head-on with Venice to see who has the more courage to create the first jury chairman under 30 in the history of the three major European film festivals, and write history?

Between the sparks and flints, Thierry's thoughts have been tumbling countless times, but he did not have the impulse, but looked at Lan Li carefully, only then realized Lan Li's excellence.

Assuming that Alberto did find Renly, and Renly did not agree in one breath. Obviously, Renly is also continuously operating in order to promote the online streaming media platform; thinking further, Roman Abramovich’s move is also It has become more profound. Is this really just a coincidence?

Of course, Thierry would not deny a possibility. Alberto just thought about it-he couldn't understand the power struggle in Venice. Even if Alberto really had such an idea, he might not be able to implement it. , Just like even if Venice is really willing to cooperate with Don Quixote Channel, Alberto still has countless tasks to complete, the progress of things is definitely not that simple.

At this moment, Lan Li is using his own bargaining chips to start a game with the three major European film festivals. Does this mean that... What he did to find Lan Li today is actually in the arms of Lan Li? So, should I continue to insist on the invitation? Or is it to avoid being constrained by the blue ceremony, the strong man chooses to withdraw and leave, away from the mud? But this involves one more thing-Don Quixote channel, what is the attitude of Cannes? Are they willing to cooperate with Renli?

complex!

With countless thoughts tumbling in his mind, Thierry's gaze at Renly became meaningful. It is not until today that he really understands "Lan Li-Master Hall", what this term means, things are definitely not as simple as imagined. Although Lan Li is now at the top of the pyramid, the whole world still underestimates Lan Li.

After breathing in and out, Thierry made a decision.

"Alberto? Oh, it seems that you should be very popular now, wait a moment, another competitor should also catch up." Thierry said with a smile, the words are alluding to the Berlin Film Festival, " But I always believe that Cannes should be the best for you. The position of the chairman of the jury is undoubtedly an opportunity for you to show your art to the world. You know, provide some references for those independent film creators. ."

The subtext is talking about the Don Quixote Channel-Renly can use Cannes to promote the Don Quixote Channel and gather more powerful independent film forces. At this point, Cannes has more advantages than Berlin and Venice, at least, the commercial level of exposure is guaranteed.

But Thierry's words were not fully clarified, and he still had some reservations.

He knows, and Lanly also knows that for such a major cooperation, they all need time and space to think carefully and negotiate. It is definitely not a yacht party that can be completed.

Nevertheless, this is still good news for Renly: Thierry has shown a positive attitude, which is completely different from Berlin and Venice. Perhaps the Don Quixote Channel can really seek a breakthrough here in Cannes.

"Of course. We are all art creators who love movies. Although expressed in different ways, when the sun goes down, we still love movies and art. This is the most important thing, isn't it?" Lan Li also gave a positive attitude, "I guess the challenge can always make people excited, and there is excitement at the same time as fear, just like bungee jumping."

This is Lan Li's view on the position of the chairman of the jury, and he also needs a little time to consider.

"As far as I know~www.novelhall.com~You like skydiving very much. In comparison, bungee jumping should be a trivial matter." Thierry emphasized once again that he hopes that Lanly will be the chairman of the jury, wise! Resolute! simply! Strong! Brave! Thierry has shown his ability in a short confrontation, and it really makes people see the strength of Cannes in the past ten years.

Lan Li did not speak, but showed a smile. He cast his gaze at Thierry meaningfully and raised the champagne glass in respect. This gesture seemed to be saying, "Then, it's up to you next."

Thierry did not continue to speak any more, raising his glasses to signal, the two gently collided the glasses, and then both took a sip of champagne, and their expressions were relaxed.

The yacht party is still going on lively. The waves lightly beat the hull of the boat, rising and falling like a baby cradle. Those laughter and joy are simmering in the flickering lights. Many eyes have noticed Lan Li and Thie. In the conversation, but few people know the content of their conversation——

In less than ten minutes of meeting, a storm that may change the global film industry is brewing!

The question now is, how will things develop?
