She dominates the entertainment industry with her disaster system

"Lingxi, Miss Beichuan just called and said that the premiere date of "The Inverse Judgment" has been set. It will be on May 5, the morning of the third day after the opening ceremony of this year's Cannes Film Festival."

Jia Jia's deliberately lowered voice came from her ear, as if triggering a key word. When she heard the word "Cannes", Su Lingxi's originally scattered attention quickly returned.

"No wonder when I asked her whether we should submit the film before the deadline of the Berlin Film Festival, she told me not to rush." ​​Su Lingxi put the script aside with a smile that was somewhat meaningful. "It turns out that she had thought of the plan long ago."

The release of a movie is a big deal, and Su Lingxi does not intend to discuss it in depth during the breaks on the set.

After the show was over, they gathered again in the living room of Su Lingxi's suite and talked again about the matters that needed to be arranged before the movie was released.

"According to the opinions of the investors and producers, the name of the film will be officially changed to The Inverse Judgment before it is released. In addition, let me remind you that Miss Kitagawa recently declined the proposal from Toho Co., Ltd." Zhang Wenya cleared her throat and continued, "She insisted on sending the film directly to Cannes for review."

Su Lingxi smiled even more when he heard this.

Kitagawa Yoshiko has a strong personality and has always regarded Fujita Ryo as her role model. In addition, she has already presented her resume twice at the Berlin Film Festival. Su Lingxi had long expected that she would choose to use this opportunity to impact Cannes - after all, for Asian filmmakers, the chances to collaborate with Hollywood film companies in production are few and far between, and if you miss this opportunity, you may never get it again.

Therefore, Su Lingxi was not surprised by the news and remained calm as usual, "It's normal. This is indeed what she would do."

"Besides that? Is there any other news I need to know?"

Zhang Wenya picked up her phone and took a look. "You may not know that you have been secluded for the past two days filming, but the jury members for this year's Cannes Film Festival were announced last month. The chairman is Martin Kubrick."

It was him...

While Su Lingxi was surprised by the list, she also felt an indescribable sense of trance.

Time flies so fast. It feels like the closing ceremony of the last Cannes Film Festival has just passed, but preparations for the next one have already begun.

"Then... Sister Wen Ya, is this a good thing or a bad thing for us?" Jia Jia looked left and right, and seeing that no one else was talking, she couldn't help but ask, "Director Kubrick and Director Mirren are friends, and Director Mirren is a friend of our boss. If we convert it, it means that Kubrick and the boss are also friends, right?"

Zhang Wenya chuckled and did not deny her statement, "I guess so, but their understanding of 'friends' may be different from ours."

"But with Columbia Pictures around, it shouldn't be difficult for The Inverse Trial to be shortlisted for the main competition."

Su Lingxi nodded obediently, but in her heart she was wondering what her chances were of winning an award at Cannes this time.

Columbia Pictures is one of the producers of the film. Kitagawa Yoshiko is the director and also the most carefully cultivated student of Fujita Ryo. No matter from which perspective, there is a high possibility that "The Inverse Judgement" will be shortlisted for the main competition unit.

But the problem is that Su Lingxi wants not only a nomination, but also a real trophy.

Logically speaking, the last session was actually the one in which she had the best chance of winning an award - the movie "Paris at Night" has connotation, intention, beauty, and is full of literary and artistic style. It was directed by Selina herself, and the style is exactly the same as the winning works in previous years. No matter how you look at it, it should be the tone that the people in Cannes like.

Unfortunately, things went against their wishes. Cannes only gave them the Best Screenplay and gave the Best Actress award to Sandra Masters, who played the vengeful heroine in "Scream".

This unusual move puzzled many film critics in Europe and even the world. Some believed that it was all related to Greta Mirren, the jury president. After all, it is well known that she prefers tough and strong female roles. Others speculated that the tastes of the Cannes judges had changed based on clues in recent years, and believed that Europe was about to usher in a new film storm...

Su Lingxi is very good at both English and French. After the Cannes Film Festival, she browsed tens of thousands of different opinions from film critics from all over the world alone in her hotel room. One review from British film critic Peter Bradshaw impressed her the most.

He wrote in the British newspaper The Guardian: [Although Mia Selina's film is still a sensational and boring clichéd love film at its core, it is far from the kind of MV-style movie that many of us worry about. She put some careful thought into the plot and setting, which is a pleasant surprise.]

[In the film, Nicole Sue, who plays a terminally ill patient, performs mediocrely. This girl probably has no idea what her strengths are. Perhaps her performance in The Thorn of the Rose, which was full of spirit, will only be a swan song. Of course, with Simon Prideaux desperately pretending to be a mental patient and his poor acting skills, the heroine's rivalry is obviously more colorful than her solo performance...]

As the chief film critic of The Guardian, Pitt Bradley is undoubtedly very famous in the European film industry, and Su Lingxi is no stranger to his name.

Sharp, profound, and deep, these are the words netizens used to describe this film critic.

She had read his review of The Thorn of the Rose when it first premiered at the Berlin Film Festival.

In her opinion, Brad's characteristics are not only his sharp language, but also his keen and profound insight. He can always accurately capture the deep and true essence of the movie, and pays attention not only to the plot and performance of the movie, but also to the director's shooting intention, the theme of the film content and the ideas that the film itself wants to convey.

It is true that his writing is often criticized by some movie star fans for being too sharp, but Su Lingxi has seen too many negative reviews and does not care too much about it.

What she cared about were the opinions and suggestions hidden behind Brad's sharp words.

For example, his film reviews for "The Rose Thorn" and "Paris at Night" were both very sharp, but she was able to analyze his completely different feelings towards the two films through his words - compared to the latter, he obviously preferred the former.
