This man knows how to hype

Chapter 432: Wonderful Scene, All Women (Update 14)

Xu Xiyu is rarely left speechless by a movie.

Mainly, he won't watch movies that might leave him speechless.

But sometimes, you really can’t help yourself. Just like the last time I watched “Inception”, I couldn’t help but praise it.

And this time, "Dawn Without Night" really made him vomit.

Physically, I almost vomited.

Because the pictures in this movie were shaking all the time, Xu Xiyu felt motion sickness. In this situation, Xu Xiyu couldn't pay any attention to what the second half of the movie was about.

Fortunately, Lu Ye also seemed to think that Xu Xiyu could not appreciate his masterpiece, so he was not invited to comment during the discussion after the movie.

Lu Ye is more likely to invite foreign film critics and peers to make comments.

For a director like him, he has been receiving foreign investment for many years and has been active in many large and small film festivals abroad.

Therefore, he didn't care about the closeness of his relationship with Xu Xiyu.

It's okay as long as it doesn't appear bad on the surface, there's no need to be too good.

In fact, it was not only him, but also many people in the country. These people were either seniors or had their own special ways, so they didn't really care about Xu Xiyu.

This includes Zhang Yujiao, who has her own way, otherwise she would not have been able to become a jury member of the Venice Film Festival.

But, there are exceptions to everything. Zhang Yujiao, who originally didn't care about Xu Xiyu, now has her mind completely focused on him.

Because, not only did Xu Xiyu ignore him on the red carpet, but he also ignored him after entering the venue, and even now after watching the movie.

As the saying goes, if the mountain doesn’t come to me, I will go to the mountain.

Finally, after the interactive session, everyone gathered in groups of three or four to communicate.

Zhang Yujiao stopped in front of Xu Xiyu and stretched out her hand, saying, "Boss Xu, I've heard a lot about you."

"Teacher Zhang, you're joking. I've heard of you for a long time." Xu Xiyu was a very presentable person. If someone came to his way, it would be inappropriate to pretend not to see him.

However, after saying hello, he also said to Lu Qinyao and the others: "You guys go get ready first, it's almost time."

"Hey." Lu Qinyao nodded, without even looking at Zhang Yujiao, and walked away.

This made Zhang Yujiao feel a little embarrassed, and she forced a smile and said, "The people under Boss Xu are quite arrogant."

"They are all quite shy. It's normal for them to be so nervous that they can't speak when they meet an international superstar like you. Please forgive me." Xu Xiyu smiled happily.

"Mr. Xu, your movie will be released soon. If this is the case, I have to consider avoiding suspicion. After all, I am a judge this time."

"Then you should avoid suspicion." Xu Xiyu said with a nod, then stepped past her and walked outside.

This can finally make Zhang Yujiao completely unable to do anything.

She even began to suspect whether someone had revealed to Xu Xiyu what she had said while reviewing the film.

But on second thought, it's impossible, those judges and Xu Xiyu have no connection at all.

Moreover, those who can serve as judges for the film festival are all veterans, and they all have some tacit understandings that they will never reveal.

Thinking of this, she quickly caught up and stopped Xu Xiyu again and asked, "Boss Xu, how did I offend you that you are so disrespectful to me?"

This sentence clearly shows anger.

Zhang Yujiao feels that she is qualified. This is not because she is arrogant, nor is it because she cannot distinguish between the big and small kings. According to the current situation in the entertainment industry, she is indeed qualified.

It's like, although Gong Li is just an actress, investors still have to be polite to her. Although Zhang Yujiao is not as good as Gong Li, the nature is the same.

This is only Xu Xiyu. If it were someone else, her words would be even more unpleasant, because in the entertainment industry, most people don't care about the thoughts of people of lower status than themselves. This has nothing to do with intelligence, but a matter of atmosphere and habit.

Of course, it was precisely because she met Xu Xiyu that this approach did not work. Xu Xiyu asked the same question in return: "Teacher Zhang, how have I offended you that you are so disrespectful to me?"

Yes, he didn’t know what Zhang Yujiao said when she was watching the film.

But there are some things that you don't need to know so clearly.

As an artist who has been in the industry for many years, Zhang Yujiao should be quite clear about what to say and what not to say when facing interviews with reporters.

But when she was interviewed by domestic reporters that day, she deliberately praised "Dawn Without Night" alone. As a result, the reporter would definitely ask about "The Intouchables".

When the reporter asked, she deliberately said in an embarrassed tone, "I personally like "The Intouchables" very much."

This may seem like a compliment, but in fact it is a deliberate denigration.

Because, if any other public figure were to respond in this way, they would never answer unless they wanted to deliberately step on someone.

But Zhang Yujiao treated others as fools and thought that Xu Xiyu would not be able to detect her little tricks.

Xu Xiyu has always been too lazy to pay attention to this kind of people.

After all, this is the Venice Film Festival, not some domestic film festival.

If it was a domestic film festival, she could belittle it as much as she wanted, Xu Xiyu didn't care, after all, they were just competing with each other.

But you still do this abroad? ?

I can only say that it's no wonder that Chinese films can't go abroad. Don't even think about expecting this kind of stuff to drive Chinese films overseas. They are not even as good as Indians.

"Mr. Xu, I don't disrespect you. Instead, it's you who disrespects me again and again." Zhang Yujiao's face had turned a little gloomy.

Without waiting for Xu Xiyu's reply, she continued, "Originally, I was thinking of bringing a few good friends from Hollywood to show my support, but now it seems that Mr. Xu has his own connections and may not need me."

"That's true." Xu Xiyu nodded sincerely. This sincere look made Zhang Yujiao laugh. She had seen arrogant people before, but she had never seen such an arrogant person.

So, she said while laughing, "It's really a new generation replacing the old. I didn't expect that Mr. Xu would be so domineering."

"There's a saying that goes, this industry belongs to you and it belongs to us, but in the final analysis, it belongs to us because I'm only 24, just like the sun at eight or nine o'clock. You have to accept your age." Xu Xiyu chuckled.

After saying this, he walked right past Zhang Yujiao and left the theater, this time without even nodding.

As for Zhang Yujiao, she stood there in a daze, her chin trembling with anger.

It is a great shame, it is really a great shame!
Lu Ye noticed her strangeness and led her aside and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you so angry?"

"Have you ever dealt with Xu Xiyu?"

"No, I don't deal with people who like to sing praises." Lu Ye said with some contempt in his words.

"Oh, luckily you have never dealt with him. This is the first time I have seen such an arrogant person. He made a few crappy movies and became the chairman of the board by eating gigolo meals. He really thinks he is a big shot!"

As Zhang Yujiao spoke, her teeth were almost chattering.

Seeing this, Lu Ye rolled his eyes and said, "It's normal for young people to be hot-tempered. His career was so smooth, how could he take us seriously? You should be more forgiving. We can't afford to offend him."

"Ha, ha! Okay, okay, I want to see how long he can keep his temper. Director Lu, his movie premieres tonight, and I won't go. Please tell your friends abroad not to go either.

I want to see if he can save his face when an international film festival can't even invite a famous foreign figure." Zhang Yujiao said, putting her hands on her waist, her chest rising and falling.

This state naturally attracted more people's attention.

A group of people gathered around to ask about his well-being.

"Teacher Zhang, what's wrong? Who is this that makes you so angry?"

"Oh, Zhang, look at you, you don't need to be angry at an arrogant person, God will punish him."

"Yes, I will make sure to let everyone know his arrogant nature. I don't think any Western practitioner will support him. We prefer gentlemen."

"Hey, some people are like this. Once they have achieved a little success, they start to look down on others. Teacher Zhang, don't worry, we are all on your side."

Listening to everyone's words, Zhang Yujiao felt much better.

Just at this time, there was another noise outside.

After a while, the assistant came in and whispered in her ear: "The red carpet ceremony for the premiere of 'The Intouchables' has begun."

"It's already started?" Zhang Yujiao was stunned when she heard that, then she looked at her watch, "It's not even 6 o'clock yet? More than an hour early?"

After all, the red carpet at the premiere can't be compared with the red carpet at the award ceremony.

It usually takes about half an hour to walk there. When the movie starts, there are still people walking on the red carpet, but they are just there to get in. They can't even enter the theater.

Upon hearing this question, the assistant's face turned a little unhappy, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know how to explain it to you. You will know if you go out and take a look. There are so many people coming."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone who was originally chatting here, including Lu Ye, pricked up their ears.

As for Zhang Yujiao, she first looked at the people around her, then scolded her assistant for being ignorant and gritted her teeth and said, "What do you mean?"

"I feel like all the European and American female artists from the Venice Film Festival are here. There's a long line of cars parked, seventy or eighty of them, and it's jammed." The assistant naturally knew it was a bad idea to bring this up.

But I have to mention that this is a huge spectacle. The red carpet show at the award ceremony is not as unique as this. It's all female artists!
Good man, he has disturbed a woman’s nest.

“What???” Zhang Yujiao widened her eyes and ran out quickly without caring about anything else.

When she ran, everyone else followed her.

Outside, Xu Xiyu also widened his eyes.

In his estimation, there might be thirty or forty female artists coming. After all, he didn't take Cheng Yunqing's 80% seriously.

But standing on the steps of the Film Palace and looking from afar, you can see a convoy that stretches as far as the eye can see.

"What's going on? Why are there so many?" he asked Cheng Yunqing in a low voice.

"You told me to spread the word, so I had someone repeat it, saying there's a great red carpet show here, inviting only the best women at the Venice Film Festival, and asking them to guess who wasn't invited.

If someone didn't receive an invitation, it only proves that she hasn't entered this circle yet. You may not know how interested these people are in integrating into a certain circle. "Cheng Yunqing shrugged.

"Boy, that word sounds familiar."

"I didn't expect that, but there are some things you can't reason with. Maybe they are just following the trend, or maybe they have wanted to do this for a long time but just haven't had the right opportunity.

In short, once the majority of people participate in an event, no one wants to be in the minority. You should prepare more invitations now and send them to the right people, so as not to offend others. "

Hearing this, Xu Xiyu was about to speak, but saw another person running out from the door of the Cinema Palace.

This person is Zhang Yujiao.

She first glanced at the long queue of cars, then suddenly turned her head to look at Xu Xiyu.

The look in his eyes could no longer be described by words like surprise and disbelief.

How can it be?

How is this possible?
How could Xu Xiyu have such a great reputation?
Even if we replace him with an internationally famous director, he may not be able to put together such a women's show!

What the hell is going on?

"Damn, how the hell did they do this?" Lu Ye also came out. Seeing this amazing sight, he felt like his three views were shattered.
