I am a literary giant in Europe

Chapter 512 Four out of Six, Double Egg Yolk (Part Two)
But it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t happen!
In the subsequent Best Actress nominations, Juliette Binoche received nominations for her roles in "Hidden Camera" and "Life Is Beautiful".

Besides Binoche, Sharon Stone was also nominated for "Broken Flowers".

Yes, that's the actress from Category III films.

Her film *Basic Instinct* is quite good. Besides that, her nude scenes in *The Voyeur* and *The Specialist* with Sylvester Stallone are also quite memorable.

Therefore, the implementation of copyright law in China has both advantages and disadvantages.

Before copyright law, everyone ate well... After copyright law was enacted, many online works lost their original meaning.

It's ugly!
Hannah Laszlo, who starred in "Free Zone," is also nominated for Best Actress.

But shouldn't Natalie Portman be the female lead in this movie?

From the very beginning, she was in the center position.

but……

"I heard that the jury's attitude was that Natalie's acting skills were not enough to carry the role of the female lead, and that Hannah overshadowed her in the whole film. In some ways, Hannah was more like the female lead, so the jury chose her."

Leslie Cheung had calmed down by then and whispered to Lau Chun.

The person who spread these words is self-evident.

It must be Maggie!

Liu Jin nodded, made a hand seal, and secretly performed a ritual.

"Sharon Stone won't win the award, Sharon Stone won't win the award, Sharon Stone won't win the award..."

Mei Ting and the others stood aside, secretly laughing non-stop.

Juliette Binoche asked in bewilderment, "What is she doing?"

"he……"

Leslie Cheung, barely suppressing a laugh, said, "He's doing something to prevent Sharon Stone from winning the award."

"Does that mean I'm going to win the award?"

Juliette Binoche couldn't help but laugh too.

Having known Liu Jin for so long, this is the first time I've seen him act like a child.

"The winner... Hannah László!"

In the distance, on the set of "Free Zone," Natalie Portman's face was dark.

Little did she know that the two most important works of her life were also slipping away from her...

Hannah László jumped up excitedly.

The entire Free Zone crew stood up and applauded in congratulations.

Liu Jin put his arm around Juliet Binoche and whispered to comfort her, "I'm sorry, my magic power isn't enough. I can only kill Sharon Stone."

"I will definitely intensify my cultivation when I get back, and next time I will use my magic to kill everyone else."

Juliette Binoche was initially a bit down.

But after hearing Liu Jin's words, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

She slapped Liu Jin on the shoulder and laughed, "I think I understand why Sophie and Emmanuelle are so infatuated with you."

Amos, you're such a good comforter!

"Juliet, I was just trying to comfort you, but you've made a fuss about me."

Next time I perform this ritual, I'll kill you too.

This time, Liu Jin spoke in French.

Not many people on the entire "Life Is Beautiful" crew could understand it.

Juliet, however, had completely shaken off her earlier gloom and was now laughing nonstop...

Ren Dong couldn't help but turn to his two lackeys behind him and say, "You two, don't be like Amos and leave your mark everywhere."

"Damn it, none of you have the ability. I'm just being redundant."

Guo Jingfei and Lei Datou's faces also darkened!
……

"Three out of five, that's good!"

Jiang Wen took a sip of his drink and smiled, "I guess this is about it."

Han Shanping also agreed.

For his first film, he won three major awards and received five nominations, which is quite an achievement.

It's a pity he would have been happier if he had won the Palme d'Or instead.

It wasn't so much happiness, but more of a feeling of jealousy.

That's good, it saves that old Ren from eating too well and getting too smug.

At that moment, a jury award was announced on television.

The winner is Wang Xiaoshuai's "Shanghai Dreams".

"This award was added temporarily, right? I don't remember there being such an award before."

"It's very likely that it's an honorary award, but it's still alright."

Han Shanping was disheartened.

This film was primarily controlled by Stellar Media Group Limited, with no involvement from China Film Group.

The main reason is that Han Shanping is a bit obsessed with handsome men.

It's not that I'm targeting handsome men, but I'm disgusted by all those so-called sixth-generation stars.

Following the Jury Prize is the second major award of this film festival, the Grand Jury Prize.

The nominated films include Three Funerals, Broken Flower, Free Zone, and Child.

The winner of this grand prize...

The original timeline was "Broken Flowers," directed by Jim Jarmusch, an old-school art film director in his fifties.

But in this space-time, things have changed.

"The winner of the Jury Grand Prize..."

The Grand Jury Prize was awarded by seven judges.

Javier Bardem was in charge of presenting the awards. He glanced at the list in his hand, then looked up and glanced in the direction of the "Life Is Beautiful" crew.

Their eyes met briefly before he looked away.

In that split second, Liu Jin received the message from Javier Baden.

Don't worry, there's a surprise for you, Bro!

To be honest, Liu Jin was already very satisfied with three out of five scores this time.

but……

Who could resist the Palme d'Or?
"Winner: *The Child*, produced by EuropaCorp, directed by Jean-Pierre Dardenne and Luc Dardenne, and produced by Jean-Pierre Dardenne." The *The Child* crew in the distance erupted in jubilation.

But the Dardenne brothers frowned, and Jean-Pierre Dardenne subconsciously looked toward Luc Besson's location, a look of confusion on his face.

It is worth celebrating that "The Child" won the Jury Prize.

But winning the Jury Prize also meant missing out on the Palme d'Or.

This is somewhat different from Luc Besson's previous promises.

The Dardenne brothers exchanged a glance, sighed softly, and, along with the rest of the crew, slowly walked towards the awards stage amidst applause.

So, who will be the winner of the Palme d'Or?
Jamus?
Tommy Lee Jones?
or...

The moment Pierre Dardenne stood behind the microphone, his gaze swept over the cast and crew of Life Is Beautiful.

That's unlikely; they've already won three major awards.

This includes Cannes Best Actor and Best Screenplay winners... although this year's Best Screenplay award was split into Original Screenplay and Adapted Screenplay...

Probably not. Amos is indeed a genius, but probably not enough to win him the Palme d'Or!
Damn America!

The Dardenne brothers cursed inwardly.

At this stage, the most likely winners are Tommy Lee Jones and Jim Jarmusch.

Both of them are from America.

The Cannes Film Festival has finally surrendered to Hollywood!

If we include "Free Zone," then if it weren't for "Life Is Beautiful," Hollywood would have almost monopolized the market.

……

"Probably not!"

Jiang Wen sat in front of the television, muttering to himself.

"What do you mean, Uncle Jiang, I can't do it?"

Tianxian and Shuchang were both a little tired.

It's already very late...

The two little girls leaned against Zhou Yun.

Jiang Wen and Han Shanping, on the other hand, were drinking and watching TV.

"I had heard that 'The Child' was very likely to win the Palme d'Or, so how did it become the Jury Prize?"

"Who did you listen to?"

“Gilles”.

"You mean Jacob?"

"Yes, the selection committee of the organizing committee has a very high opinion of 'Children'."

"Could it be..."

The two exchanged a glance and abruptly sat up straight.

Amos was doing very well in France, yet he remained silent after being assassinated twice, which seemed a bit odd.

This guy……

On the television, the camera happened to pan across the cast and crew of "Life Is Beautiful".

Ren Dong seemed to be in a state of 'sagehood', appearing to be without desires or wants, and whispering something to Leslie Cheung next to him.

Glazer, meanwhile, paid no attention to the guests' remarks and was talking with Sophia and Juliet.

Of the entire crew, only Liu Jin remained upright, his eyes fixed intently on the awards stage.

The awarding team for this year's Palme d'Or consisted of Jury Chairman Kusturica and all members of the jury.

The award was presented by Kusturica.

Palme d'Or nominees: Life Is Beautiful; Three Funerals; The Child; and Broken Flower.

"The selection of this year's Best Picture was very difficult."

The jury conducted three rounds of voting before making their final decision.

In 2005, the winner of the Best Film award at the 58th Cannes Film Festival was…

Kusturuca took a deep breath and smiled, "Life Is Beautiful, congratulations Amos!"

The entire audience erupted in uproar!
Almost everyone's eyes were fixed on the Chinese man who sat there with his back straight.

Chairman Ren and the others were completely blank in their minds.

They were so stunned that they didn't react and just sat there dumbfounded.

Only Liu Jin stood up, smiled, and hugged Chairman Ren.

"Chairman Ren, it's time for us to go up on stage to receive our awards!"

"Old Zhang, we won the Palme d'Or!"

“Sophia, I’ve told you before, your abilities are outstanding.”

"Juliet, I will definitely use magic next time to help you win the Best Actress award at Cannes."

"Old Guo, wake up..."

"Big Head, let's claim the prize together!"

"Grezer, congratulations!"

"Sister Mei, congratulations!"

He hugged and reminded everyone one by one, finally bringing them back to their senses from the shock.

At this moment, applause resounded throughout the cinema!

Meanwhile, Han Shanping's mind went completely blank in front of the television.

"You really won an award? And it's the Palme d'Or? Jiang'er..."

"Hehehe, I knew it, I knew this little rascal was definitely holding back a big move."

This is France, his territory. After everything that's happened, how could he possibly sit idly by and watch *Life Is Beautiful* miss out on the Palme d'Or?

Jiang Wen murmured.

Suddenly, he burst out cursing, "That bastard must be very confident."

Look at him like this...

"Damn it, Sisi, once you're on set, you better do your job well. Next year, your uncle will take you to Cannes. If that bastard doesn't help, you'll be crying to him then."

Tianxian and Shuchang finally realized what was happening!
The two little girls, for some reason, hugged each other, jumping and crying, laughing, and shouting...

Zhou Yun looked confused: A beautiful life doesn't seem to have anything to do with the two of them!
