The Rick International Film Festival can be said to be one of the world's top traffic, with media focus, concentrated resources, and numerous directors and producers. There is a privately popular saying in the circle, "As long as you dare to fight and bet, this is God beginning to favor you first day."
The red carpet session of the opening ceremony is undoubtedly the first battlefield for artists to win the favor of God. However, unlike the real battlefield where there are many men and widows, most of the "enemies" on the red carpet are female artists. After all, men's dresses have strict restrictions such as wearing bow ties, unlike women's dresses, which have unlimited possibilities.
Zheng Anlin, like the general public, has always believed that red carpet beauty is something between women, but when she saw Li Zhiqing push the door in, she immediately felt that this concept was pure fart.
She admired those long legs wrapped in slim trousers for a while, and then took a serious look at the delicate and presumptuous smiling face after makeup. She just wanted to praise that he is not as handsome as a mortal today, and he seems to be otherworldly The guy raised his hand to touch his stomach, and asked seriously: "Why don't you order food? I thought I could have something to eat when I came over."
"Quickly take these two sentences back," Zheng Anlin said heartbroken, "This is not what a god should say."
Li Zhiqing couldn't help being stunned: "Huh?"
In order to do styling today, I already blew up lunch. It is almost two o'clock in the afternoon. Is there a problem with eating
"You're going to walk the red carpet, male lead." Zheng Anlin said.
Li Zhiqing was still puzzled.
The little actor who played Li Zhiqing's younger sister in the movie smiled and reminded him: "Little Brother Li, we haven't eaten since noon yesterday."
Even drinking very little water, worried about edema.
Li Zhiqing: ""
"Director Jiang and the others didn't eat anything last night, they only ate a serving of mashed potatoes this morning."
Li Zhiqing looked at the director team sitting on the opposite sofa, a line of big characters flashed across his face: Are you all crazy
"I'm middle-aged... I can't help it." Jiang Ping touched the buttons on his coat and smiled sheepishly.
Older people have a slow metabolism, and they don’t have time to exercise. Their overall body is not in the fat category, but there is a layer of fat on their stomachs. It doesn’t show much in ordinary clothes, but it’s all exposed in a suit that fits.
The rest of the people laughed after Jiang Ping finished speaking, as if sucking their stomachs inadvertently.
"The lens will widen people, eat less to make the stomach empty, and look better in dresses." Zheng Anlin explained.
Li Zhiqing, whose waist is full of lean muscles: "..."
He understands the truth, but there are so many guests present, and they can't leave after walking the red carpet. The opening ceremony is estimated to be after nine o'clock, not to mention that they have to register at the assembly place in advance, which is too much effort.
"Come here and sit down. The organizing committee sent you the order of admission at noon. Let's check the process time." Jiang Ping waved at him, "According to the etiquette, after the red carpet, you have to say hello to the jury, and then you can compare their faces with the judges." Remember the name, and don’t make a mistake when the time comes.”
It looked like they really didn't plan to have lunch.
Li Zhiqing sighed, the more he thought about it after sitting down, the more he couldn't bear it, he turned his head to seek help from You Chuan, but he didn't expect that the other party had already opened the door and left, and when he came back, he had an extra fragrant steak cup in his hand.
The steak and side dishes have been specially instructed, and the cuts are much smaller than the usual ones. You don’t have to worry about the sauce sticking to your mouth or eating your lipstick. The people who bought it can be said to be very careful.
Li Zhiqing's eyes lit up, and after receiving the steak cup, he felt the attention from the people around him, and he generously handed it forward: "Do you want to eat?"
The rest of the people shook their heads quickly, fearing that they might not be able to stop the brakes after taking a bite. The red carpet matters, the red carpet matters.
Maybe it was because the smell in the room was too tormenting. Jiang Ping explained the precautions very efficiently. After finishing speaking, it was almost time. When the makeup artist finished the final makeup check, everyone got up and prepared to go to the assembly point.
Zheng Anlin watched Li Zhiqing stand up, his waist wrapped in the dress was thin and straight, and it was completely impossible to see that his stomach had just been filled with a large steak cup.
"Is brother Li still human?" The little actor playing the younger sister had the same attention as Zheng Anlin.
Zheng Anlin patted her on the shoulder: "He is an evildoer in the skin of a fairy."
Li Da evildoer did not follow the crowd out of the room immediately. He walked up to You Chuan, straightened the collar of the other party, and explained: "The venue is strictly disciplined, you can't bring assistants into the venue, so I won't bring you in to suffer."
You Chuan kept his mouth shut and did not speak.
"You go back to your room to rest and wait for me. I'll be right back after the opening ceremony." Li Zhiqing discussed with him patiently, and seeing that You Chuan was unwilling to part with him, he deliberately tilted his head and blinked at the old dragon god, "Is that all right? "
This trick has been tried and tested.
You Chuan looked down at him, and finally compromised: "Okay."
Li Zhiqing held his hand with a smile and squeezed it hard: "Wait for me to come back."
Invited guests from other countries also stayed in this hotel, and the area near the hotel exit has long been occupied by media from various countries.
As soon as the crew members of the movie "Sister" walked out, the Chinese media in the middle of the crowd immediately took pictures of them.
The media from other countries raised their cameras reflexively, but when they saw a group of unknown Asians over there, they put the cameras down again.
A British cameraman just took off the strength on his arm, and his accompanying partner urged: "Why are you standing still? Shoot! This is the only Chinese crew shortlisted for the main competition."
"Huaxia? How many years have they produced a watchable movie?" The cameraman smiled nonchalantly, "If the crew is really capable, it won't be too late to shoot at the closing ceremony."
"Idiot!" The partner hated iron and steel, "Didn't you see that person behind the crew?"
Several other Western media heard the conversation between the two, and couldn't help casting their eyes over there.
The last person who came out of the hall was a tall and handsome young man, standing out from the crowd behind the crew members, much taller than his female companion who was walking on the sky, with a smile on his face Light but sincere, and more importantly, his long hair, which is smoother than a woman's and black, has almost become an important symbol of hot news not long ago.
The young actor from China won the "Rick's Most Beautiful Face" event with his outstanding facial features. I heard that even the chairman of the organizing committee praised his appearance in private.
Recognizing the other party's identity, a group of photographers gasped one after another. The news value of Li Zhiqing's photos was far greater than that of their domestic actors.
Including the incident of Bacchus' visit to apologize in the morning, Huaxia media interviewed them three times after the crew landed on the island. Li Zhiqing has a good memory and has some impressions of the reporters' faces, and he did not forget to wave and greet them on the way.
Before he could say "Thanks for your hard work", the foreign media, whose face was tired and indifferent last second, suddenly held up the camera to him, and the flashes went off one after another.
So many people suddenly made such a move at him at close range, Li Zhiqing was so startled that he stopped in his tracks, his right hand awkwardly stopped in mid-air for two seconds, and then continued his gesture of greeting.
The other team, who was three minutes ahead of the crew at the departure time, happened to walk to the parking space. Hearing such a commotion behind them, they took the opportunity to turn around and get in the car and turned to look at the hotel. It's envy.
"Don't talk about them, I'm almost envious." Sitting in the vehicle covered by the crew, Zheng Anlin pressed her chest and let out a long sigh of relief, "Although it may attract criticism, it is also a good thing to get media attention on the first day . . ”
Some vitriolic journalists might make a fuss about Li Zhiqing's self-sufficiency, but as long as the premiere of the film is over, any rumors will be self-defeating.
"This is a good opportunity, you must perform well." Jiang Ping echoed, "The best directors and producers are here, if you can get them to notice you, it will be easy to go abroad, even if you go back to China, you won't be afraid to the script."
Li Zhiqing nodded with a modest smile: "Yes, don't worry."
Jiang Ping wanted to say something more, but he vaguely felt that something was wrong, and seeing Zheng Anlin looking at him strangely, he immediately came to his senses, coughed twice and turned his head away.
Concerned about chaos, he just said some nonsense.
With such a background in his hands, it would be so difficult for Li Zhiqing to enter the international film and television industry. Even without Lou Yu's support, why would he worry about not having good resources in China now
The Movie Palace is built on a mini-island adjacent to Riker Island, and the final route leading to it is only a wide sea-crossing bridge, and the assembly point is on the central square at the other end of the bridge.
The parking spaces near the square were all disabled by the special car of the organizing committee. Vehicles driving from all directions could only be parked on the periphery of the square. The invited guests had to walk to the rest area of the assembly place.
It has long been heard that Riker Island, which has a small land area, has a six-figure number of visitors during the film festival, but it is not always full of crowds when shooting locations. The crew members who had never participated in the film festival thought it was just an exaggerated statement by the media, but as soon as they approached the square, they were overwhelmed by layers of human heads outside.
The four-way route has been blocked by the police early, and there are many tourists on both sides of the road. Many of them are wearing gorgeous dresses and pretending that they are going to attend the red carpet. A monster doesn’t respect borders at all.”
The vehicle stopped, and the main creative team got out of the car one by one.
The tourists on both sides of the road showed unexpected enthusiasm. The languages of different countries are intertwined, and they are all clutching their mobile phones hard, not knowing whether they are taking pictures or recording videos.
Zheng Anlin dared to swear that she praised Li Zhiqing no less than ten sentences in these words, even if there were girls who confessed, there were even a few bold blond boys who directly shouted hot love when Li Zhiqing passed by. Declaration comes.
This is probably the power of the "black-haired elf" who was once at the top of the list. Zheng Anlin glanced at Li Zhiqing's profile from the corner of her eye, even if this elf is a man, it doesn't matter.
This small square in front of the overpass certainly cannot accommodate all the invited guests who are about to walk on the red carpet. Except for a few big names to superstar figures who can be the finale, any team must strictly follow the time frame stipulated by the organizing committee, otherwise it will be out of date No wait, Li Zhiqing's team is no exception. So when they arrived at the gathering place, the world-renowned opening ceremony had already kicked off, and the giant screen set up in front of the rest area broadcast the red carpet event in real time for every waiting guest.
Li Zhiqing himself had the opportunity to see the red carpet only after he took his seat in the rest area, but his fans sat in front of the computer early, watching the live video of the domestic partner, eagerly waiting for his idol to appear on the stage.
[It's been almost an hour, I don't know when it will be Li Li's turn. ]
[Don't worry, don't worry, the bosses are almost gone, and it should be the turn of the crew of the main competition unit soon. ]
They only posted two barrages, and someone said sourly: [It's just a small star in my country, and there will definitely not be even a second of footage by then. ]
[What are you talking about? Is there such a curse? ] Li Zhiqing's fans didn't reply, and other netizens couldn't take it anymore, [They are going to win glory for Chinese movies, so it's your turn to chatter here? ]
[Don't waste your time with this kind of person, just now I saw her asking why her idol didn't show up, I think it's because Hei Li Zhiqing's fans didn't become popular during the day, and came here at night to find a sense of presence. ]
When a passer-by responded, that person didn't even dare to fart.
But with this little disturbance on the barrage, the waiting time seems not as long as before.
The entry order of the crews of the main competition unit is the same as that of the list of shortlisted works when they were announced. Seeing that the crews of the films before "Sister" have entered the arena, and the next special car of the organizing committee to pick up the guests is also moving at a constant speed from the bridge. coming.
The live broadcast room suddenly became lively, and the colorful barrage flew past with Li Zhiqing's name, making passers-by and netizens excited.
This is the only Chinese movie that can compete for international awards in recent years.
People watching the live broadcast were staring intently at the private car that gradually stopped in the video, expecting Li Zhiqing to open the car door and walk out. Unexpectedly, the camera suddenly turned and turned back to the cross-sea bridge connecting the movie palace.
I saw a fuchsia supercar with an extremely high-profile and eye-catching appearance galloping from the end of the bridge. The sound of pure performance came from far and near, constantly shaking everyone's eardrums.
The sports car finally stopped in front of the red carpet arrogantly, and the co-driver quickly got off a white-haired woman who was also extremely arrogant.
Seeing who came, all the media present exclaimed.
Hilda Sanchez, the internationally recognized "devil" in the fashion circle, has exquisite designs and unique vision. She can change the annual fashion trend with a single sentence, but she is also notoriously arrogant and harsh. It is said that anyone who meets her aesthetic requirements There are only a handful of them. Despite this, many European nobles still regard her as a guest of honor, a fashion winner who really stands on the pyramid.
Now that she is nearly 80 years old, she is still imposing, wearing a platinum gold floor-length dress, unceremoniously poking her 18cm heel into the red carpet that symbolizes glory.
Hilda's sudden appearance was definitely an unexpected surprise for the media on both sides. The official media's live broadcast directly cut her to a close-up shot, and she never missed it from the moment she stepped on the red carpet.
[Fuck, this crew is too unlucky, why did they meet this "devil head". ]
[… I doubt that her camera can follow her into the autograph until she enters the arena. ]
[Although I know the principle that those who are capable come first, I am still aggrieved. This is Li Li's first time walking on the red carpet! He is obviously so good! ]
The people watching the live broadcast were complaining about Li Zhiqing, and the person who said sour words just now suddenly erupted: [I just said that there is no camera for him, he deserves it. ]
A "deserve it" instantly ignited the firecrackers, making fans even more anxious.
The crew members sitting in the special car had already poured cold water from head to toe when they saw Hilda appearing, and they looked at each other with wry smiles, but there was nothing they could do.
Zheng Anlin saw Hilda standing on the stairs at the end of the red carpet doing the final posing for a photo through the car window, and suggested hesitantly: "How about... we wait?"
According to the rules, the guests in the previous group should get off the car when they reach the stairs, but the media focus is all on the "devil head" over there, so there must be no camera if they go out now.
The rest of the main creative team did not express their opinions after hearing this, and looked at Li Zhiqing together with Zheng Anlin.
Since you are willing to make "Sister", a movie that is easy to overturn, it shows that everyone here is not a master who likes to chase fame and fortune. They don't care that they can have a few seconds of footage, but they care about Li Zhiqing's.
They sincerely hope that this outstanding junior in the entertainment industry will not miss every opportunity to show his talents.
Li Zhiqing laughed at being stared at by them, and simply said: "We are here to participate in the competition with our works, and we didn't come here specially to promote ourselves, so there is no need to delay."
The rest of the people were stunned when they heard it, and their eyes gradually became excited after understanding the meaning of Li Zhiqing's words.
Yeah, the main character is the movie itself, not the creative team that made it.
"Good boy! Well said!" The music producer of the crew patted Li Zhiqing on the shoulder, "Let's get out of the car and wait until the premiere, so that they can see our Huaxia movies!"
The emotions of the members were successfully mobilized, Li Zhiqing nodded with a smile, and opened the car door with the encouragement of everyone's burning eyes. After getting out of the car, he turned around and bowed slightly, with one hand behind his back, and the other hand stretched out to Zheng Anlin who was about to get out of the car.
He was wearing the same dress that Lou Yu sent him.
The jet-black shirt has patterns like fog and rain on it, and the dress coat is also black, but because of the special material, it looks like satin in the sun, but it is more low-key and thicker than satin. In addition, silk and silk alternate among them, delicately outlining the narrow lanceolate bamboo leaves, making Li Zhiqing look amazingly elegant and refined.
And today he is rarely wearing a middle ponytail, and the brows are deliberately elongated and raised. His facial features, which are already full of fairy spirit, add more coldness for no reason, and this coldness collides with the natural smile on his face. An unspeakable taste that is addictive.
Zheng Anlin was stunned, and passed her hand into Li Zhiqing's palm, and her nasal cavity was sore as he slowly straightened her body.
She really loves this sensible big boy.
Not only Zheng Anlin was distressed, but all the fans who were watching the live broadcast were also distressed. A few soft-tempered girls even couldn't help their eyes turning red, as if someone had snatched and shredded a test paper that had been carefully filled out for a long time. It was terribly uncomfortable.
However, when they felt sorry for Li Zhiqing, someone who was standing on the commanding height of the red carpet was attracted by the tall and straight figure below.
In the live broadcast, Hilda's "devil head" turned her head slightly to the right, and her face that had been baptized by the years was still radiant under the exquisite makeup.
Just when netizens around the world wondered which media won her favor, Hilda suddenly turned her body directly to the bottom of the stairs, and the corners of her mouth that had been drooping all the year round suddenly lifted up, and she smiled and praised in front of the live broadcast of the official media without hesitation: " Take a quick look, whose lost young master is that?"
