November 2th, the last day of the month.
The opening ceremony of the Oscar selection is today.
In the past, the annual Oscar draws were held at the end of May and the beginning of June, when the town of Cannes had the most beautiful scenery.
I don't know why this year, but it was suddenly changed to early March.
France's Oscar selection, also known as the Palme d'Or.
Since the sponsor of this award is named Oscar Rivera, everyone habitually calls it the Oscar selection.
Although the Oscar selection has the same name as the Academy Awards in Los Angeles, it has a different influence in the world film circle.
The highlight of the Academy Awards is Best Actor and Best Director.
The Palme d'Or focuses more on the film itself.
Its most important trophy, the Palme d'Or, is also awarded to the film with the best storytelling.
The trophy of the Academy Award is for people, but the Palme d'Or is for the film itself.
Whether these two film festivals, which claim to be the fairest in the world, are really fair or not, only the judges themselves will know.
On the evening of the 28th, Gu Jiujiu had a completely new look, wearing the 20000 Euro evening dress she just bought.
"Brother Chang'an, my outfit is not worse than those big-name celebrities, right?"
Li Changan took two steps back, looked at her with scrutiny, and nodded slightly:
"Not bad, not bad, those foreign girls who show their heads and poses are not worthy of being our maids!"
"Really?" Gu Jiujiu beamed with joy, her little face was already smiling.
"...that's the one..." Li Changan frowned:
"Jiujiu, I suggest you eat more papaya in the future!"
Gu Jiujiu was stunned for a moment, and asked in a daze:
"Why eat papaya?"
"Ahem..." Li Changan changed the topic and said:
"Let's go, go and see how my translator is doing, let's go!"
"Oh!" Gu Jiujiu walked a few steps, turned around and asked Wu Yunfei:
"Xiao Wu, Brother Chang'an said eat more papaya, what does that mean?"
Wu Yunfei stared at her for a while and said a word.
Gu Jiujiu's delicate face instantly turned red, and she cursed loudly:
"Smelly Xiaowu, shameless, you don't learn well at such a young age!"
Wu Yunfei was called stupid!
Am I so wronged or not?
Brother Chang'an said what Papaya said, and you insisted on asking me.
I'm just explaining the efficacy of papaya. If I want to scold you, I should also scold Brother Chang'an, right?
Gu Jiujiu wrinkled his nose, made a face at him, turned around and chased after Li Changan.
The Holiday Cinema by the beach is the main venue of this film festival.
All tickets for this grand theater that can accommodate 1100 spectators were sold out a week ago.
It was the first time for Li Changan and the others to participate in the Cannes Film Festival, and they thought they could buy tickets at any time like in China.
Unexpectedly, at the box office of the movie theater, the chubby French ticket sales lady shrugged:
"Sorry, all tickets are sold out."
Is it so hot?
Li Changan brought two well-dressed beauties and stood at the entrance of the movie theater to make trouble.
If I knew it earlier, I would have booked tickets online, but now it's a good thing. When I got outside the gate of the film festival, I couldn't even get in because of the ticket problem.
A few people stood outside the theater door like gate gods, watching the handsome men and women enter the theater one after another.
These people are also very curious about Li Changan and his party.
A handsome man with an oriental face and two beauties from the East and the West with very different styles standing at the gate of the cinema like security guards is a very eye-catching thing in itself.
There is no shortage of speculators anywhere.
The predicament of Li Chang'an and the others has long been in the eyes of interested people.
A thin, middle-aged Caucasian man with a swallowtail beard leaned over with a wicked look and asked in French:
"Hey buddy, want a ticket?"
Li Changan glanced blankly at Emma who was wearing a rose red evening dress.
The little blond beauty didn't have the slightest awareness of being an interpreter, and was staring at him expectantly.
My temporary employer is very rich, so it must be no problem to buy a few high-priced scalpers tickets, right?
Emma is very happy that she can participate in such a big event as the film festival.
This set of expensive clothes on her was also bought by Li Changan with his credit card.
When Gu Jiujiu was shopping for clothes, he insisted on paying for it himself.
In her words, my sister is now a rich woman, a rich person, just an evening dress, drizzle!
Li Changan was so happy that she paid for it herself.
It's not for nothing that I'm a penny-pinching rooster.
Who knew that Gu Jiujiu added another sentence:
"Brother Chang'an wants to pay, just buy it for Emma!"
I bought it for her, why?
Even if An Nuan and Qin Xiaomi are so close, brother has never bought clothes for them.
A temporary foreign girl, how can she have such a big face.
Gu Jiujiu leaned close to his ear and whispered:
"Brother Chang'an, don't you think it's a very honorable thing to bring a beautiful western beauty like Emma?"
In fact, she didn't need to lower her voice deliberately, because Emma couldn't understand Dalong's language at all.
A word to awaken the dreamer.
Yes, it would undoubtedly be a very glorious thing to bring Emma to the film festival.
Maybe those foreigner judges will give more impression points.
Li Changan waved his hand: "I bought it!"
When Gu Jiujiu pulled Emma to choose the dress, she was still wondering if it was true.
From Emma's point of view, Li Changan hired him and had already paid his salary, so there was absolutely no need to help him buy clothes.
But since there is such a good thing, Emma will not be stupid enough to refuse.
But the girl was very measured, and she just chose a moderately priced evening dress.
The price is incomparable with Gu Jiujiu's, only 4000 Euros.
Even so, she was still uneasy, for fear that her employer would be angry.
After all, this dress is already worth her one-year tuition fee.
Li Chang'an didn't care about the price issue, the big deal is that at the autograph, I can sign a few more books to get back the money for the clothes.
But he didn't expect that his inadvertent behavior made Emma feel that his temporary boss was a rich and powerful master.
Since the money is not bad, just buy a few scalpers tickets. Is it so difficult?
Emma looked at her boss suspiciously.
Li Changan also looked at her.
The two stared at each other.
"Emma, my brother can't understand French!"
In the end, Gu Jiujiu was clever enough to understand what Li Changan meant.
Emma suddenly realized!
It turns out that I am their translator and director!
She relayed the words of the white man in a somewhat impressive manner:
"Sir, he asked if we wanted to buy tickets!"
Damn banana cake, what did you think it was for, it turned out to be foreign scalpers!
"Ask, how many tickets do they have!"
Emma turned her head and started communicating with the white man.
A gloating voice came from behind Li Changan:
"Hey, Director Li, is this something you can't buy to play the door god at the door?"
