Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The most eye-catching part of the opening ceremony of the film festival is undoubtedly the red carpet. This can be said to be a grand fashion show, the best stage for celebrities to show themselves, and a battle show for the space.  Why do domestic stars flock to film festivals?  Because there are two benefits of walking on the red carpet of film festivals. One is that you can grab headlines and expand your popularity. The other is that you can be on the cover of overseas magazines and improve your image.  Establishing a high-end image is very important for an actress. When Zhang Ziyi wanted to film Zhang Jizhong's "Swordsman", she was scolded by Zhang Yimou. This is the reason.  Once the level of a celebrity drops, those high-end brands that focus on their own brand image will no longer come to you. It is impossible for international brands like Dior and Chanel to find a TV star to be their global spokesperson.  Of course, the most important thing when walking on the red carpet is the clothes. If the clothes are not matched properly, not only will you not win the page, but you may become a laughing stock.  Cheng Peng didn't care. It didn't take much time to change into a suit, white shirt and tie. But the girls on the crew didn't dare to be careless. They started busy in the afternoon, doing hair, makeup, trying on dresses, wearing jewelry,  I was so busy that I didn¡¯t even eat dinner.  It took until seven o'clock to finish the work, but the effect was good. Everyone looked bright and bright, and it was definitely more than enough to appear on the cover of a magazine. Then a group of people surrounded Cheng Peng and walked toward the movie palace in a mighty manner.  The red carpet in Venice is arranged differently from the red carpets in Cannes and Berlin. The red carpets in Cannes and Berlin are arranged vertically, with a red carpet leading straight to the entrance of the Cinema Palace. However, Venice must be narrow due to its geographical location, and the front of the Cinema Palace  There was no large open space, so the red carpet was laid out along the street in front of the Cinema Palace, horizontally.  At this moment, the 100-meter-long carpet outside was occupied by nearly a thousand reporters and countless movie fans. It was so crowded that it was even more lively than a temple fair during the Chinese New Year.  This is exactly what Marco Muller wants, to gather popularity through Hollywood stars, attract everyone's attention to Venice, and rejuvenate the ancient film festival.  Will Smith, Angelina Jolie, Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow, Al Pacino, Reese Witherspoon and other Hollywood stars appeared one after another, making the scene scream.  The sound got louder and louder, and the strong flash lights illuminated the scene into daylight.  The most famous among Cheng Peng and his group is Zhang Ziyi, but even the gap between her and these top Hollywood superstars is huge and cannot be compared with them.  Naturally, they cannot enjoy the treatment of Hollywood superstars. They can only stand in line at the entrance with other celebrities and crew waiting to walk on the red carpet, waiting to get on the red carpet.  Zhang Ziyi and the others were relatively calm, but Yang Mi and Wang Luodan were particularly excited. They couldn't stop talking and chattered non-stop.  Cheng Peng knew that they had no experience of walking on the red carpet of film festivals, so he reminded them as someone who had been there: "Today is the opening ceremony. You have also seen that there are a lot of people walking on the red carpet. When you walk on the red carpet later, don't stay too long.  , If you stay too late, it will delay other crews and make everyone disgusted. When our movie premieres, there will be enough time to take photos for you!" At this point, he thought of Fan Ye on the red carpet in the future!  Showing his fierceness, he raised his head and glanced at her.  Yang Mi and Wang Luodan both nodded and said they understood, but Fan Binbin was a little depressed. Why are you looking at me? Do I want to stay on the red carpet? Am I so thick-skinned?  At this time, another crew came over, and Cheng Peng saw a few Chinese faces. They were director Jia Zhangke, who was shortlisted for the main competition unit "The World", and the male and female protagonists Cheng Taishen and Zhao Tao.  "The World" is a film that takes place in the Beijing World Park. It tells the story of a group of outsiders struggling for survival and love in the competitive city of Beijing. They live in their own narrow world.  It interprets the same sad and joyful life as that of most outsiders floating in the capital.  We are both Chinese filmmakers. We would definitely say hello when we meet on such an occasion, so Cheng Peng took Zhang Meng there. Jia Zhangke is half of Zhang Meng¡¯s idol.  Jia Zhangke knew Cheng Peng and had seen his movie "The Two of Us". He was very impressed by the superb level he showed in the movie. He stood at the entrance of the red carpet and chatted enthusiastically with Cheng Peng and Zhang Meng.  Just as the conversation was getting underway, a loud "boom" came from the red carpet area, causing screams and the red carpet suddenly became a mess.  Two minutes later, the security guards of the film festival found out what was going on. Some evil guy secretly lit a firework and threw it into the crowd, which scared everyone. After confirming that it was just a firework, the red carpet  The ceremony returned to normal.  After waiting for more than ten minutes, Cheng Peng and the others boarded the red carpet of the film festival under the guidance of the film festival security.  I don¡¯t know if it isBecause Tong Lixi shocked the whole world with her Chinese-style look for Walking in the Snow and Looking for Plum Blossoms, the six heroines in the crew all wore Chinese-style skirts.  But to be honest, Cheng Peng thinks it is most suitable for Chinese actresses to wear Chinese-style clothing, which can especially show the soft and gentle side of oriental women and look particularly charming.  When the entire crew walked on the red carpet, this group of beautiful Chinese-style girls immediately caused a commotion in the media.  The photographers clicked the shutters frantically, and the flashes flashed.  Several girls stood apart, showing charming smiles, allowing themselves to pose for photographers to take pictures. A burst of Chinese style suddenly appeared on the red carpet in Venice.  Cheng Peng was very indifferent, and always kept a smile on his sunny and handsome face. However, because he was standing in the middle of a group of girls, he felt like a little green among the red bushes. He was very eye-catching. The reporters rushing to take pictures of him were no better than those of several girls.  less.  Because I had been reminded beforehand, even Mr. Fan was not as arrogant as the future. After a short stay, everyone walked out of the photo area.  The Chinese reporters in the interview area shouted the names of Cheng Peng and Zhang Ziyi at the top of their lungs, trying to conduct a simple interview with them, but Cheng Peng did not go over, smiled and waved to the reporters, and then led a group of people into the movie.  palace.  Sitting down on the set, Yang Mi and Wang Luodan were still in a state of intense excitement, with a faint blush on their faces and eyes shining with excitement.  Cheng Peng smiled and said: "Fox, judging from your appearance, I'm afraid your feet are already weak from fear, right?" Yang Mi's feet were indeed a little weak and she had no strength at all. When the overwhelming flash lights came on, she felt that she  His eyes were almost blind.  The excitement coming from deep within her heart not only made her body tremble slightly, but also drained the strength from her body, making her hands and feet weak.  Of course, Yang Mi would never admit it, it would be so shameless: "It's not a problem for me to run 500 meters now. I'm just a little excited, not nervous at all." But Wang Luodan admitted it openly: "My feet  It's a little soft and her hands are a little shaky! " She has no experience on the red carpet. This is her first time participating in a film shoot. She didn't expect to be able to attend the opening ceremony in Venice. It was like a dream.  Cheng Peng nodded and said: "Dandan is a good boy, how can he be like this lying fox!" Not long after, the host of the opening ceremony came up, a beautiful woman in her thirties, who should be from Italy.  Cheng Peng didn't know the star.  After a humorous opening remarks, the members of the main competition unit jury appeared one by one to the applause of the audience.  This time the film judges in Venice are much better than those in Berlin. Cheng Peng basically knows Wolfgang Beck, the director of "Goodbye Lenin", Spike Lee, the black director, and Duchamp Makavi, the director of "The Coca-Cola Boy"  Jeff, British actress Helen Mirren, "Farewell My Concubine" producer Xu Feng, and Hollywood actress Scarlett Johansson.  Then, a video collection of jury chairman John Bowman began to play on the screen. John Bowman's most famous works are "Glory Days" and "Big Four". He won the Oscar twice for these two films.  Best Director and Best Picture.  Cheng Peng met John Baumann in Berlin. His film "Skull Nation" was a shortlisted film in the main competition. However, after the film was released, the media received rave reviews and did not win any awards. Cheng Peng did not get the opportunity to communicate with him.  .  After the film highlights were played, John Bowman walked onto the stage to the warm applause of the audience. He smiled and joked with everyone, which caused a burst of laughter from the audience.  However, Cheng Peng couldn't help but laugh. The old man was already over seventy years old. If he was asked to watch a horror movie like "Dark Invasion", who would be responsible for the fright? He somewhat understood why the film festival did not select horror films to be shortlisted for the main competition.  .  After John Bowman gave a brief speech, the clips of the participating films began to play on the screen, such as "The Big Sleep", "Empty Room", "Howl's Moving Castle", etc., one after another.  Each film lasts thirty seconds and is a wonderful clip that can show the characteristics of the film.  "Dark Invasion" was placed at the end. When the movie appeared on the big screen, Cheng Peng's eyes suddenly widened and a strange smile appeared on his face: "Mark Muller is so bad.  But I like it!" "What?" asked Yang Mi next to him.  "Stop talking and watch the big screen!" On the screen, Chen Ran, played by Zhang Ziyi, woke up from her sleep, looking a little haggard. Since the car accident, her sleep has been very bad.  She came to the table, picked up the medicine for treating mental illness, took two pills from it and swallowed it.  She raised her head and looked out the window. A golden full moon hung in the sky, the moonlight shining like water.  Feeling a little bored, she came to the window and looked at the scenery outside the window, but at this momentWith a "clang" sound, a steel pipe broke through the window and shot towards her head. "Ah!"  "The audience in the cinema hall was unprepared for this. No one expected that such a scary scene would suddenly appear. They were all frightened and shouted crazily. Some even rolled to the ground in fright. "Oh, God.  Ah, it really scared me to death!  Mark, you bastard, why did you arrange such a scary scene in the opening ceremony!  " "Damn it, I think I'm going to have nightmares at night, it's so disgusting!  " "My heart almost stopped beating, damn Mark!  " Not just ordinary viewers, but also several leading actors in the "Dark Invasion" crew were startled and screamed. Although they were the leading actors in the movie, they had not seen the finished film and did not know what the real movie was.  Only Cheng Peng rolled his eyes, stared at Yang Mi next to him, and said angrily: "Fox, you screamed, why did you pinch my arm?  "The next day, overseas media reports focused on Hollywood superstars, especially Spielberg, the director of the opening film "The Terminal", and Hanks, who starred in Tom Hanks, while domestic media focused on  The performance of the Chinese Legion on the red carpet ¡°The Venice Film Festival opens, the Chinese Legion counterattacks!  ¡± ¡°The Venice Film Festival is showing Chinese style!  " "Chinese actresses can hold up half the sky in Venice, and Chinese style is very popular!  "However, for the Italian audience who attended the opening ceremony, the most impressive of all the participating films was undoubtedly "Dark Invasion". The stunning debut of the film at the opening ceremony made countless people full of expectations for the film. "Dark Invasion" also  Before it was released, it had already become popular in Venice.
