Cannes and Hollywood are the holy places for actors all over the world. The Oscars have greater influence, but they are more biased towards the United States. Cannes is the first of the three major events in Europe, and it is more artistic.
Cannes is usually held in mid-to-late May, but due to the epidemic, it has been slightly postponed.
Bo Yan has been to Cannes. His first film went to Cannes with director Yu Fenfei. Although he didn't win an award here, he won the Golden Olympics for Best Newcomer after returning to China, and his stardom has been bright ever since. The movie "Moonlight" that I filmed with Shang Feier also premiered in Cannes. Xia Siyu has also been here, but every time she comes, it’s not because of her works—it’s because of her endorsements.
Since red carpet attendance has become a trend, many Chinese female stars have used various means to obtain tickets to the red carpets of major film festivals and come here to compete for beauty. The Oscar standards are too high, and without a work it would have been easy to be laughed at by the crowd. However, the threshold in Cannes is relatively low, and there are many high-end luxury goods and cosmetics endorsements. It is easy to get a spokesperson or ambassador status. And after all, France is more literary and artistic in many people's minds, with a higher level of professionalism. Come and have a look and send a press release when you go back, which can be regarded as a KPI.
But walking on the red carpet is bound to involve one thing: clothing.
In the past few years, some female stars, who wanted to gain fame, wore all kinds of fancy clothes on the red carpet. A small section of the red carpet was only a few dozen meters long at most. They could walk you for twenty minutes, and in the end you were The security guard dragged him away politely.
She used to walk on red carpets when she collaborated with high-end luxury brands to endorse her. However, last year her reputation collapsed and the high-end luxury brand did not renew her contract. She is no longer a full-line spokesperson for that company. Of course, she had a good relationship with that company and it was not difficult to borrow designer clothes, but she didn't want to.
Xia Siyu brought her work with her this time, and she is pretty and has a good figure, so does she need to show it off? Everyone in China knows it. These days, wearing something fancy or flashy is not as attractive as wearing a sack.
So the day before he was about to go to Cannes, Bo Yan was relatively calm. Anyway, male celebrities could just wear black suits. Xia Siyu was also relatively calm and discussed with him how to film the drama. The only one who was relatively uneasy was Wei Jingjing.
Although Xia Siyu doesn't think it matters, but the so-called human skin is like the shadow of a tree. If a star wears clothes from previous years on the red carpet, it will not be considered as frugal, and will only be laughed at as "Hubi". Xia Siyu is now in the stage of making a comeback. Her reputation has improved, her box office is good, and her new movie is being filmed. How can she wear casual clothes
Not only do you have to wear it, you have to wear it several times. We still have to communicate with Shang Feier’s team and Bo Yan. It's easy for Bo Yan to talk, but Shang Feier has a lot more to think about. Colors, styles, and themes all have to be designed in advance.
Moreover, Bo Yan and Xia Siyu also received magazine shoots and endorsements. They had to stay in France for three days after the Cannes Awards Ceremony and returned after shooting magazines and advertisements.
Everything was ready. They had been shooting late at night the day before, and they didn't finish until two o'clock in the morning.
Bo Yan and Xia Siyu didn't have time to rest, so they changed their clothes and took off their makeup. The assistant packed up their things and headed directly to the airport.
When she returned to China before, Xia Siyu flew on Emirates Airlines and was very satisfied with their first-class cabin. She also booked the flight this time.
