It stands to reason that the judges should not meet with the finalists in private until the final list of winners is announced.
Although foreigners may not know the idiom of melon fields and plums, they must know this truth.
But having said that, no one actually delves into it.
But it's always good to keep a low profile, so the Coen brothers chose the meeting place for the "Cannes Chinese Night" dinner.
It's easy to find an excuse, just say that you want to taste authentic Chinese food.
In those Chinese restaurants abroad, in order to meet the taste of foreigners, the tastes of various dishes have long undergone strange changes.
It's the same everywhere, and Golden Arches doesn't have to sell soy milk fritters in China.
The evening is set on the beach on the bay of Cannes and is buffet-style, with an invitation required to enter.
Of course, you can also be like Mu Ming, brush your face to enter.
As soon as he entered the venue, Mu Ming called Teres first, but was told that he was early and had not yet arrived.
"Let's go, eat something first."
Mu Ming stretched out her hands helplessly at Wan Qian, explained the situation, and then said with a smile: "It is said that the seafood in Cannes is quite good, just try it." ” Maybe it's because there were too many events in the previous two days, and there were fewer directors, actors, and the like tonight, and most of the people who attended were the bosses or producers of film and television companies, mainly to promote movies.
Mu Ming walked all the way over, and someone greeted her from time to time.
After all, they are all in the same circle, and even if they don't know each other, they are more or less familiar.
Besides, after the media publicity in the past few days, there are really few people in Cannes who don't know Mu Ming.
Of course, there are many acquaintances.
Mu Ming just took some oysters and shells on the plate, and when she turned around, she saw Yu Dong and Jin Qiaoqiao and his wife.
"Yes, Mr.
Yu, such a coincidence?"
Mu Ming was holding a dinner plate in her hand, and it was not suitable for shaking hands, so she could only nod with Yu Dong.
"It's not a coincidence, I heard that you arrived, so I came here on purpose."
Yu Dong explained.
Seeing Mu Ming's puzzled expression, he smiled and continued: "Mainly talk about "Monster Hunt" with you.
Let's go, sit down first. ” Returning to the position, Mu Ming first introduced Miss Wan Qian to Yu Dong and his wife, and then prepared to introduce Wan Qian again, but was stopped by Yu Dong before he could speak.
"No need to introduce, this is Miss Wan Qian.
Now in Cannes, there are not many people who don't know Miss Wan.
Yu Dong nodded politely at Wan Qian, and said with emotion.
The various interviews that the young lady accepted during this time are still very fruitful, and her popularity has grown rapidly.
Just a few days ago, it was obscure, but now it is like one of the most blooming stars in this year's Cannes.
In fact, it's not just in Cannes, the young lady has also become a lot more popular in China recently.
Previously, when Mu Ming announced the relevant lineup and information of the new work, Wan Qian, as the heroine and absolute starring, had already attracted the attention of many fans and netizens.
Now that "Room" is being screened in Cannes, it is natural that most of the news about Cannes is indispensable to mention.
Correspondingly, Miss Wan Qian's name is remembered by more people.
It's not just because of the Cannes Film Festival.
Many viewers discovered that the heroine of the criminal investigation drama "Signal", which was popular just a few days ago, was Wan Qian.
"Signal" is a criminal investigation drama that was broadcast on Mango Satellite TV a few days ago, and when many viewers heard that it was Mango Satellite TV, they immediately thought that this would be another idol drama under the banner of "criminal investigation", in fact, all kinds of love idol dramas.
Unexpectedly, just four episodes have been broadcast, and they have already exploded Weibo and Moments.
The super brain hole that solves the case across time and space, the film-level shooting and production, the compact and powerful plot direction, and the excitement brought by the selection of real events all attract the audience.
And the only girl among the three leading actors in the play is Wan Qian, who has been frequently mentioned recently.
The two phases are superimposed, and the natural heat grows rapidly.
Of course, about the fire of "Signal", Mu Ming and they don't know yet.
After greeting each other and saying a few words, Wan Qian and Jin Qiaoqiao went to the side to chat, leaving Mu Ming and Yu Dong and began to discuss the matter of "Monster Hunt".
As I said before, Cannes is not just an art festival, but also the world's largest film market.
Last year alone, nearly 1,000 films from 118 countries were screened here.
By the end of the festival, more than 4,000 films had been sold, with a total turnover of $1 billion.

Such a huge market has naturally attracted the attention of film and television capitalists from all over the world, and Bona is naturally no exception.
On the second day of the festival, Bona announced that it would invest in Hollywood director Roland Emmerich's "Midway".
With a total investment of up to US$80 million, PropNex owns global rights except for North America.
There are naturally purchases and sales, and Bona's main "Monster Hunt" this year was also taken to Cannes for sale.
And it is precisely because of the previous large investment that Yu Dong also attaches great importance to this movie. happened to know that Mu Ming would also come back to attend the dinner tonight, after all, Shuimu Film and Television also had nearly forty percent of the investment in "Monster Hunt", so Yu Dong came to the door and wanted to ask Mu Ming if he had any suggestions.
After all, compared with the ability to direct, Mu Ming's vision in the circle is the most envied by the bosses of these film and television companies.
"Eh, the screening of "Monster Hunt", why haven't I heard Li Ying mention it?"
Mu Ming said suspiciously: "Moreover, she didn't seem to participate." ” "Uh, this ......"
Yu Dong coughed and hesitated: "This, after all, is just selling films, and the movie itself is more important, so several leading actors did not participate." ” Yu Dong said this tactfully, but the meaning was very clear.
That is to say, the leading actors are not famous anyway, and there is no bonus effect when trading, so it doesn't matter if they come or not.
Xiao Zhao is naturally a hot new generation of Xiaohua in China, but he is not well-known internationally.
Oh, and it can't be said that in East Asia and Southeast Asia, there is still some well-known.
After all, the original "Flower Thousand Bone" was also quite popular in these two regions.
Hmm-shouldn't Xiao Zhao be allowed to enter the international route?
Mu Ming thought about it, and it seemed that there were really no more brilliant movies with female protagonists in her memory.
There are a few impresses, and the image of the protagonist is not very suitable.
Mu Ming really wanted Xiao Zhao to try "Wonder Woman", a bun-faced, soft and cute Wonder Woman, it's fun to think about it.
Of course, it is impossible for DC to hand over the role of one of the "Big Three" to a Chinese girl, so Mu Ming just thinks about it.
The schedule of "Monster Hunt" was selected in August, and there were also releases at the same time before and after it, as well as "The Return of the Great Sage", "The Woman of the Dynasty: Yang Guifei", "Taiping Wheel (II)" and "Pancake Man".
Here, "The Return of the Great Sage" and "Pancake Man" both have Mizuki's investment.
"The Return of the Great Sage" is a film controlled by Mizuki, so they negotiated with each other and staggered the schedule.
As for the other two, it doesn't matter, just play fair.
In particular, no matter how you look at these two movies, they smell like bad movies.
After chatting for about twenty minutes, Teris rushed over.
Yu Dong said hello and left consciously.
Only then did Teres tell Mu Ming that the Coen brothers were here.
The serial number of this chapter......
