    On the snow-white two-meter-long big bed, Lu Meili let her hair down and lay with most of her body reclined. Half of the quilt covered her body and half hung down beside the bed, sleeping soundly.

    Yuan Qiaoqiao came in from the outside holding a paper bag, with a corner of her long bread exposed. When she saw the way she slept, she couldn't help but shake her head. This sleeping state was really terrible.

    Putting down the bag of bread in her hand, she shouted: "Get up, it's almost noon. If you go back to sleep, you won't be able to sleep at night. You will stay up until the middle of the night and wait until the next day.  It¡¯s time to get up again.¡±

    Lu Meili opened her eyes and raised her head to look at the alarm clock on the bedside. However, because her sleeping position was almost sideways, she couldn't see it at all. She yawned and asked, "Qiaoqiao, what time is it now?"

    "Ten forty."

    "It's already that time." Lu Meili sat up from the bed, stretched and said, "Where is my mother? Isn't she with you?"

    "My aunt is with Xinyuan's Mr. Chen. In addition to exploring ways to distribute Xinyuan's movies overseas, she also has other things to do. She has many more things to do than me, so I won't follow the past and cause trouble."

    After hearing her words, Lu Meili couldn't help but complain: "What you said is really shameful. My family knows about my own affairs, and you are obviously the real big boss of Xinyuan, but you are here to be carefree and let others do the work for you.  Don¡¯t you feel ashamed?¡±

    Yuan Qiaoqiao said very sincerely: "What do I have to be ashamed of? It's not that I didn't want to stay out of it, but my age is not convincing at all.

    I don¡¯t want to just keep others busy, but even if I go along, no one will pay attention to me, and no one will treat me as the boss. What do you want me to do?  "

    Glancing at her, Lu Meili said nothing and went to the bathroom to wash up.

    After she came out after washing, Yuan Qiaoqiao discussed with her, "Cousin, if you are hungry, drink some milk and eat some noodles first. When it is lunch time, we will go to have lunch in a serious manner.  OK?"

    "Okay." Lu Meili agreed without hesitation, picked up the milk cup and took a big sip, then broke off a piece of baguette and put it in her mouth, "What are your plans for today?"

    "Except for attending the "Hong Kong Nights" movie promotion event organized by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council tonight, there is nothing serious to do today."

    Lu Meili knew that the main reason she came to Cannes was to attend this event, so when she saw her as if nothing happened, she asked curiously: "This event seems to be very grand and grand, and it is responsible for promoting Chinese films and overthrowing foreign films."  It¡¯s such an important task, why don¡¯t you prepare in advance?¡±

    "What are you ready for? Stop it, stop it, don't talk about this event as if it's a high-end event. In fact, it was an event that the Hong Kong Trade Bureau came up with after seeing the decline of the Hong Kong film market and the tendency to develop into the Taiwan market.  The idea of ??revitalizing Hong Kong films is just to use the platform of the Cannes Film Festival. In fact, it is no different from selling films at the film festival¡¯s trading market booth.¡±

    "From what you said, it seems like you don't like this event?"

    ¡°It¡¯s not like it¡¯s like that, it¡¯s just like that.¡±

    Yuan Qiaoqiao sighed softly, "How deep are the barriers between Eastern and Western cultures? When you were a stewardess and flew around foreign countries, even if you didn't have in-depth contact with foreigners, it was just a superficial impression.  You should feel something.

    The main market for Chinese-language films, even when the Hong Kong and Taiwan film markets were at their most prosperous, was only limited to those areas in Southeast Asia that were once the Ming dynasty and were influenced by the culture of flower growers. They didn¡¯t even cover the whole of Asia. I don¡¯t know where they got the confidence.  , and you actually want to introduce it to Europe and the United States?

    Japan, which is also an Asian culture, once filmed a story in "Journey to the West" and also cut out a section from "Three Kingdoms" and filmed it. However, the movies they produced, in our opinion, are messy and unclear.  Can not look.

    These are still neighbors. Because of some historical origins, the cultures of both sides have a lot in common.  But even so, they still cannot understand the essence and core of the five thousand years of culture of our flower growers, let alone the West, which has almost no understanding of us and knows very little about us.  "

    Lu Meili listened and felt that what she said made sense, but thinking that Xiangjiang had held such a big event and was rendered useless by her, she couldn't help but question, "Are you being too alarmist?

    If this is the case, what about the minds of the Hong Kong Trade Bureau and the people who came to participate in this Hong Kong night?  Couldn't they have thought of this?  "

    "The United States was once a colony of the United Kingdom. We even have the same ancestors. Culturally, they are almost of the same origin and species. However, British movies are not so popular in the American market, and even though British artists have made a career in HollywoodThere are more people than other countries, but how many are opening up the situation?

    Similarly, among the Chinese stars who have entered Hollywood over the years, how many have succeeded?  Although racial discrimination is not allowed in the United States due to political reasons, and there are special laws and regulations for this reason, can discrimination be prohibited by laws and regulations?

    For us Chinese-speaking artists, there is almost no other way to come to Hollywood unless we show off our fists?

    Regardless of the huge success of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", the actors in it received a lot of bonuses, and it seemed to have opened the door to Hollywood. But in fact, there are very few roles left for Chinese in Hollywood. The bosses of various film companies, producers,  Directors, producers, they would rather give roles to black people than to Chinese people.

    In Hollywood movies, because they involve a sensitive issue of racial discrimination, black actors rarely play bad guys in them, but for our Chinese-speaking actors, we have no such scruples.

    ¡°For all the Chinese artists who have entered Hollywood, most of the first roles they got in Hollywood were bad guys, but even then, they were given very few opportunities.  "

    Yuan Qiaoqiao's words were not unfounded, they were well-founded, because she knew clearly that later on, all the artists who entered Hollywood, even those like Cheng Long and Jet Li who had managed to gain a foothold in Hollywood through their kung fu, came back.  Start shooting your own movie.

    After the 2008 Olympics, countries all over the world had a slightly deeper understanding of flower growers, and the film market for flower growers developed. Hollywood began to pay attention to this film market, but the Chinese actors they used in their films  , whether it is a special edition or something else, anyway, the role of Chinese in Hollywood movies is still very embarrassing. It is dispensable and it doesn¡¯t matter if it is deleted, it will not affect the plot.

    "Don't you want to break into Hollywood? It is the center of world cinema and a palace. If you can go there to make movies, you might be able to achieve an international reputation."

    "I don't want to, I haven't figured out my own film yet, so I'd better work in my own area. To put it bluntly, many of my own directors have made bad films, leaving someone who doesn't understand the culture of flower farmers at all  If a director comes to make a movie about a flower grower, it¡¯s a joke.¡± (Remember this site¡¯s website address: www.hlnovel.com
