Conquer America, Start with a Boxing Champion

And Marion Cotillard was also a great lover.

She understands Link very well and is willing to tolerate everything about Link. She is like a lover and an older and wiser sister. When getting along with her, Link can clearly feel a purity from her. And the passionate love makes him feel no pressure.

This is why Link is willing to be intimate with her and continue their relationship.

Compared with her, Emma Watson, Chrissy Liu, and Taeyeon are too young and appear immature in this regard.

Link needs to pay attention to moderation every time he gets along, which can be troublesome sometimes.

——

After a good sleep in Paris, the next day Link and Marion Cotillard, Junior Cassel, Monica Bellucci, Guillaume Canet and others took a plane to Cannes to attend the film festival.

A total of 1,858 films were registered for the 66th Cannes International Film Festival, and 78 films were shortlisted, including "Destiny" directed by mainland Chinese director Jia Zhangke, "Blind Detective" directed by Hong Kong director Johnnie To, Hong Kong director Liu "Crossing the Line" directed by Yun Wen.

There are 19 films shortlisted for various awards in the main competition, including "Rust and Bone" starring Link and Marion, "Destined" starring Jiang Wu and Stan Wang, and "The Beautiful City" directed by Paolo Sorrentino ", "Like Father, Like Son" directed by Hirokazu Kore-eda, "The Life of Adele" starring Léa Seydoux, "Venus in Furs" directed by Roman Polanski, etc.

This year's Cannes Film Festival was very lively, and there were many stars walking the red carpet that day. From Europe and the United States, there were director Spielberg, Christoph Waltz, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicole Kidman, Leonardo DiCaprio, Toby Martyr Quayle, Sofia Coppola, Aisha Argento, Uma Thurman, etc.

There are also many people from China, including Director Ang Lee, Andy Lau, Cheng Long, Donnie Yen, Zhang Ziyi, Wang Baoqiang, Gao Yuanyuan, Liu Jialin, Jiang Wu, Bin Binfan and so on.

"Hey, Link! Come over here."

In front of the Cannes Film Festival Palace, when Link walked on the red carpet, he happened to meet the crew of "The Great Gatsby" taking pictures on the red carpet. Leonardo, Tobey Maguire, Carey Mulligan, Gao Mei Elizabeth Debicki et al.

The taller sister Elizabeth Debicki is 190cm tall. In order to prevent being compared when taking pictures, Leonardo pulled Tobey Maguire into the middle to block the thunder, which seemed a bit despicable.

"Hey Leon, Toby, you guys look great."

Link greeted.

"Yes, you look great too. Hi Marion, you are so charming. Oh, Monica, see you again."

Leonardo said hello.

In the end, the two teams stood together and took a group photo.

Link and Leonardo stood in the middle. Next to him stood the two beauties Marion and Monica. Next to Leonardo stood Tobey Maguire, Carey Mulligan, and the tall girl.

When a few people took a group photo, thousands of fans outside the barbed wire let out a deafening cheer and shouted his and Leonardo's names. Judging from the number of people, there were even more people calling him.

In the photography area opposite the red carpet area, hundreds of photographers in black formal attire took photos of a few people with their guns and cannons, and the shutters sounded loudly.

Link stood for more than thirty seconds and wanted to leave, but the photographers refused and shouted, "Mr. Baker, wait a minute."

"Why are you so anxious before the filming is finished?"

Leonardo pulled him and said.

"There will be other guests coming later, and we can't stay here for too long."

Link waved to the fans and continued walking forward with Marion and Monica. On the way, he met some enthusiastic fans. They handed over notebooks and pens through the gaps in the barbed wire, hoping to get his autograph.

Link had to stop again to sign autographs for more than a dozen fans.

"Didn't you say you can't stand here for too long?"

Leonardo came up and joked.

"The enthusiasm of the fans cannot be disappointed."

Link signed a few books, said goodbye and continued walking.

"Do you have any conflict with Leonardo?"

Marion chuckled.

"Yes, Leon said that when he was filming "Inception", he proposed to you, but you ignored him. When he saw you loving me like this, he was very jealous of me."

Link smiled.

Marion smiled slightly, held his arm tightly, and looked at him with eyes full of fascination.

"Link, I'm curious, do you have any male actor friends that you get along with well?"

Monica Bellucci asked.

"Of course, except for Leon, who is not very convinced by me, everyone else in the circle has a good relationship with me."

Link said.

"You do have more masculine charm than Leonardo."

Monica looked at his profile and smiled.

"Thanks!"

The group walked into the auditorium of the Festival Palace, and Link met more acquaintances. Everyone greeted him warmly when they saw him. Even if someone was far away, they would come around to say hello to him.

"Mr. Baker, you are here too."

Wang Baoqiang greeted very cautiously.

"Stan, I saw your movie "Lost In Thailand" in Beijing in February. It was very interesting."

Link shook hands with Wang Baoqiang and said.

At the end of last year, "囧囧" starring Wang Baoqiang, Xu Zheng, and Huang Bo was released in China and grossed 1.27 billion in box office, setting a new record for domestic movie box office and movie attendance.

"Haha, thank you Mr. Baker for the compliment. Mr. Baker's performance at the Spring Festival Gala this year was also very good. Everyone said they were surprised to see Mr. Baker at the Spring Festival Gala."

Wang Baoqiang bared his white teeth and smiled.

After a few words of flattery and seeing many celebrities queuing up to say hello to Link, Wang Baoqiang stopped being nagging and took the initiative to say goodbye to Link.

After returning to his seat, everyone from the Chinese crew surrounded Wang Baoqiang.

"Baby, are you familiar with Link?"

"Haha, that's right, last year I went to Los Angeles to attend the Oscars, and Mr. Baker invited me to his home and took me around the Lionsgate studio. Mr. Baker is really a down-to-earth person."

Wang Baoqiang praised.

"Baby Niu, I've even been to Link's house. I heard that Link is now worth tens of billions of dollars. How is his house?"

"Of course it's great. The houses on the Santa Monica Bay are big and beautiful. When I have money in the future, I will buy a villa there."

Wang Baoqiang said.

"Baoqiang, you know Link. Link is the boss of Lionsgate Pictures. You don't want to work in Hollywood with him?"

"I never thought that my acting style is more suitable for the mainland. Going to Hollywood is equivalent to giving up my martial arts skills. It is not cost-effective to go there. However, Mr. Baker told me about cooperating with me and said that if I am short of money to make a movie, I can contact him. Baker Sir, he is a very humane person.”

Wang Baoqiang said.

Everyone else looked envious after hearing this.

Link is a billionaire and one of the bosses of the seven major Hollywood film companies. If you can have a good relationship with him, there will be many benefits in the entertainment industry. However, Link is a big boss after all. He can't even deal with people he doesn't know. There was no chance to talk to him.

Everyone looked at the honest and rustic Wang Baoqiang and had no idea why Mr. Baker favored him. They also couldn't understand why everyone automatically thought that stupid people would be lucky.

After everyone left, Binbinfan sat next to Wang Baoqiang and patted his shoulder, "Baoqiang, do you have Link's phone number?"

"Yes, I have his business card."

Wang Baoqiang patted his pocket and smiled.

"How about taking it out and showing it to sister?"

Binbinfan smiled.

"Well, what's the point of a business card?"

"Stop being so nagging, take it out quickly, or I'll get angry."

Binbinfan said pretending to be angry.

Wang Baoqiang scratched his face, hesitated, and carefully took out the business card, "Sister, I can show you the business card, but you can't call Link randomly."

"You know, is that the kind of person I am?"

Binbinfan rolled her eyes at him, grabbed the business card and took a look at it. It was a very simple business card with only a string of phone numbers in gold fonts, and she happened to know that this kind of business card was rare and much better than those flashy ones with many titles written on them. Business cards are more valuable.

Binbinfan quickly wrote down the phone number on it and returned the business card to Wang Baoqiang.

I also felt relieved.

Ever since she met Link at the Cannes Film Festival in 2011, she wanted to hook up with Link. Later, Link appeared on the Forbes list of the world's richest people, worth billions and tens of billions of dollars. Lionsgate Pictures His hands are getting bigger and bigger, becoming a Hollywood giant, and he also has a lot of investments in China.

She wanted to hook up with Link more, but she never had the right opportunity. She approached Yang Dami, but Dami said yes on the surface, then turned around and forgot about it. At the same time, she secretly guarded against her getting close to Link.

Chris Liu, who is rumored to have a closer relationship with Link, is more aloof and difficult to deal with.

Now that I have Link's phone number, I just need to find a suitable time to catch up with Link. With Link's help, it will be much easier to enter Hollywood.

As an actress, she naturally covets the title of international movie star, but this title is not that easy to get.

Last year, she tried her best to sneak into the crew of "Iron Man 3" and filmed a few scenes. However, in the international version, all her scenes were deleted and were only available in China.

Failed to break into Hollywood. If Link had helped, this would never have happened.

Binbinfan looked at Link who was surrounded by many European and American celebrities, his eyes became more and more intense.

At around six o'clock in the afternoon, the Cannes Film Festival Awards Ceremony began. The first award was the 'Camera Golden Award for Best Debut Film', which was won by the Singaporean film "My Parents Are Not Home". The second award was the Best Short Film Award, which was won by South Korea. The movie "Safety" won.

Director Jia Zhangke's "Destiny" won the Best Screenplay Award, and Japanese director Hirokazu Kore-eda won the Special Jury Award for "Like Father, Like Son".

When it came time to award the best actress, five actresses were nominated.

Léa Seydoux and Adele Archipoulos were both nominated for "La Vie Adele".

The heroine of "The Past" is Béronice Bejo.

Geraldine Paras, the heroine of "Beautiful Faces".

The final winner was Marion Cotillard, who won the Best New Actress Award at the Cannes Film Festival in 2004, became the Oscar-winning actress and Golden Globe-winning actress in 2008, and became the Cannes Best Actress this year.

In terms of film achievements, she is higher than other French actresses.

When actor Christoph Waltz read Marion Cotillard's name on stage, there was a round of applause.

Marion Cotillard hugged him excitedly and kissed him before holding up her skirt and walking up to the podium. She happily took the box containing the golden palm branches and thanked Jacques Audiard on the stage. The director thanked Guillaume, Little Cassel, and Link, calling him his closest lover in the world.

"Link, are you happy?"

Monica Bellucci turned around and joked.

"Yes."

Link looked at Marion Cotillard on the stage and smiled.

"Marion is more than ten years older than you, don't you mind?"

Monica smiled.

"Of course not. Love has no regard for age, race or color. It only requires spiritual understanding. Marion and I are very compatible."

"You're compatible with a lot of women."

Monica saw Marion come off the stage and clapped along with everyone else.

Then the Best Actor award was presented on stage. Nicole Kidman opened the envelope, looked at the audience, and read out with a smile, "Mr. Linkbacker of "Rust and Bone"".

"Wow!"

When Nicole Kidman read out his name, there was a burst of noisy exclamations, because it made no sense to award this award to Link, and even Link himself found it strange.

According to the convention of the Cannes Film Festival, the 8 awards in the main competition unit will be divided into cakes and distributed to the 8 films shortlisted in the main competition unit, with one award for each film.

It’s incredible that this year’s Cannes judges awarded the Best Actor and Actor awards to the male and female protagonists of the same movie.

In addition, this Cannes Film Festival is considered to be the highest level in the past five years.

Famous international directors such as the Coen Brothers, Roman Polanski, Jim Jarmusch, Hirokazu Kore-eda, François Ozon, Abdai Kesich, Asghar Farhadi, Jia Zhangke, etc. all participated in the exhibition and were shortlisted. Main competition unit.

The other four actors nominated for Best Actor are all veteran actors.

Bruce Dern, the protagonist of "Nebraska", is 76 years old and a veteran Hollywood actor.

Mathieu Amalric, the leading actor in "Venus in Furs", is a veteran French actor. He has won the French César Award for Best Actor three times and the Cannes Film Festival Best Director Award.

Jiang Wu in "Destined" is also an experienced actor.

And Oscar Isaac, the leading actor in "The Ballad of Drunken Country", also performed well.

Although Link's performance in "Rust and Bone" is also very good, he does not have many obvious advantages compared to the above four.

Under such circumstances, the current jury still awarded the award to him, which made the audience surprised and puzzled.

No matter what others think, after hearing his name, Link hugged Marion and Monica. Amid warm applause from the audience, he buttoned up his suit and walked up to the podium to receive the award from Nicole Kidman. Winner of the Palme d'Or.

"Can this guy win an award too?"

Leonardo said with a frown as he looked at Link's back.

"I watched Link's performance in Rust and Bone, and it was really good."

Tobey Maguire said, clapping his hands.

"I know, but I don't believe his performance will be better than Bruce Dern or Matthew Amalric."

Leonardo hummed.

"Link is our friend. Shouldn't we be happy that he won the award? Why don't you look happy?"

Tobey Maguire looked at him doubtfully.

Leonardo grinded his teeth and forced a smile.

"I'm not jealous of Link. Although I didn't win the Cannes Best Actor Award, I won the Golden Globe Award and the Berlin Film Festival Award, so I won't be jealous of him. I'm commenting on this matter realistically. Cannes Film Festival just now The festival awarded the Best Actress Award to Marion, and now it awards the Best Actor Award to Link, which is against the rules."

"There is no rule at the Cannes Film Festival that says each film can only win one award. If the quality of a film is good enough and the actors perform well, it is no problem to win two or three at the same time. Link and Marion Goldier Ya's performance in "Rust and Bone" was equally matched, and it was reasonable for the judges to award the Best Actor and Actor awards to both of them."

Tobey Maguire said.

"Hmph, if you don't believe me, just wait and see. After the award ceremony, the media will definitely blast Link to death."

Leonardo said.

"What does this have to do with Link?"

"Of course there is. Who doesn't know that he is a master of public relations? Who can guarantee that this award is not the result of public relations? Even if it is not, the media will think it is."

Leonardo said.

"If there is a most romantic place in the world, it must be Cannes. Thank you to the beautiful Cannes, thank you to the jury, and thank you to all the fans who support me. I love you."

Link waved and walked off the podium amidst a burst of warm applause.

Although many people have objections to this award, no one will discuss it under Link's nose. After all, he is the boss of Lionsgate Pictures, and no one can guarantee that they will not cooperate with him next time.

Seeing him coming, the audience in the crew area smiled and applauded and cheered.

Other film awards will continue to be presented next.

In the end, Spanish director Amart Escalante won the Best Director Award for the movie "Hailey", the Coen brothers won the Jury Prize for "The Balladeer", and the French gay film "The Life of Adele" won the highest Palme d'Or. prize.

The film festival awards ceremony is over.

Except for Polanski's "Venus in Fur", Paolo Sorrentino's "The Great Beauty" failed to win any awards, but Link and Marion both won the Best Actor and Best Actress for "Rust and Bone", which became the biggest news of this Cannes Film Festival.

After the film festival, it caused widespread discussion and criticism in the media.
