But, desperately, Ms. Merritt still has reason.

She clearly knows that this film may truly leave her name in film history. Paint a big FK.

It is precisely because she still has a sliver of reason that Ms. Merritt understands that she cannot destroy this work.

She even needs to help Lu Yi, carefully disguise this movie as a warm love road movie, deceive all audiences, let them enter the movie theater with the highest expectations, and then bear the sharpest knife.

Ms. Merritt, who insisted on art, would never think that one day she would put herself in a desperate situation because of her pursuit of art.

"What else can I do?"

Ms. Merritt was silent for a long time. She opened the window and the humid air of the French countryside flowed into her lungs. The 43-year-old film critic lost all purpose at this moment.

"No matter what I do, it's impossible for the director to change the ending, and it's impossible for the dead people in the story to come back to life. What else can I do?"

She stared blankly at the white mist drifting across the woodland, shining brightly in the moonlight.

In desperation, Ms. Merritt felt a calling.

The call came from the infinite heights, from the starry sky, from the depths of the ocean, from the abyss of the seabed, from the center of the desert, from the unknown mausoleum.

She stood up.

Taking off her shoes, she stood on the windowsill.

That call calmed Ms. Merritt's thoughts, and she saw clearly where she was.

From the moment of pressing the play button, she is like Amber embarking on a journey, and there is only one final ending.

There was no escape for her.

Stepping forward, Ms. Merritt wanted to step into the calling.

At this time, her dog suddenly rushed into the projection room and yelled twice, bringing Ms. Merritt back to her senses.

"Ouch!"

When she turned to look at her dog, she slipped and fell from the window sill.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

The barking of the dog echoed through the wet night, and the dog came to the windowsill and looked down.

Ms. Merritt fell in the grass, bruised all over her body, and came to her senses with a yelp as though a broken bone had been broken.

Ms. Merritt had images from the movie replaying in her mind as she tried to get to her feet and call for help.

She knew very well that her dreams for a long time to come would be related to it.

She also understood the purpose of those colleagues who sent emails to herself.

The best way to handle this movie is to recommend it to anyone I meet!

===380. He stuffed money===

"New movie? Yes, you can see it then, right?"

Bai Qiquan was a little distracted during the video call with his girlfriend.

He had just gone through the holidays during the Chinese New Year, and now he will be on holiday again. Although he worked overtime every day until [-] o'clock in the evening for more than a month, but thinking about it now, Bai Qiquan still thinks this job is really cool.

He was going to take his girlfriend abroad for fun during the vacation, and when discussing the destination, he happened to mention the film festival.

"Cannes is in France? I really want to go to France."

His girlfriend Pang Zhen stayed in Yannan to work, and the two of them were in different places now, but Bai Qiquan felt that according to his current income, it would not be long before Pang Zhen could come to Jiangcheng to find an easier job to catch fish.

"How about we travel to France and watch your movie by the way?"

Pang Zhen had an idea and made a suggestion.

"Ah, I don't know how many times I've watched this. It's a healing literary romance movie. It will be released in China, right?"

Bai Qiquan was not sure.

He is not very optimistic about the box office of this movie.

Although the movie is excellent, he thinks it is not as shocking as "Magic Tide". Moreover, the audience of this kind of literary romance movie is not as good as the epic blockbuster, and it is not released simultaneously all over the world. The box office may not even be as good as the previous "Madman". Mouth" or "Crying".

Moreover, it is rare to go to a foreign country with my girlfriend, but I actually want to watch a movie I made.

"Then you can't watch it with me."

Pang Zhen said angrily.

"Okay, no problem, no problem at all, it's a great honor!"

Bai Qiquan didn't hesitate either.

It doesn't matter where you go, what matters is who you go with, what movie you watch doesn't matter, what matters is who you watch with.

Anyway, enough money.

"Is this movie good?"

Pang Zhen asked again.

"It's not bad, it's very warm and healing, a road movie with a little bit of adventure."

Bai Qiquan thought for a while before answering.

"Then I will also Amway my friends and help you get some box office."

Pang Zhen said happily.

"It should be released simultaneously in May in China? I don't know the arrangement, maybe it will be in June or July."

Bai Qiquan and the others are not responsible for distribution, and they don't know when it will be released.

However, the participating films will definitely be screened in France during the film festival.

It is said that some of Lu Yi’s fanatics have already booked tickets and hotels to Cannes early, and they are waiting to watch the movie as soon as possible.

Bai Qiquan didn't quite understand.

After finishing the video call and saying goodnight to his girlfriend, Bai Qiquan's nightlife can finally begin.

He didn't play games, because Pang Zhen has learned to check his record recently. If he is found to be fighting in the middle of the night, he might be told.

He can only play in the suburbs with a trumpet.

But Bai Qiquan really didn't play games today.

He swiped down the video, watched those supernatural little videos to help him sleep, and then saw a push.

"Cannes judge Ms. Merritt Leslie praises director Lu Jian's new film".

This is a short press release, the subject of which is actually the preparations for the Cannes Film Festival and the participating films, with an interview with some well-known judges in the middle.

Among them, Ms. Merritt's interview is particularly eye-catching.

First of all, she is a queen of poison tongue, who is best at criticizing works with sharp words, and basically denounces the works of commercial directors.

Secondly, she had published a short article before, arguing that Lu Yi's film was not even worthy of being nominated, which aroused a certain amount of attention, mainly because many domestic Lu Yi blacks used it as a bible to keep repeating.

So, in this news, Ms. Merritt's sudden change of face is surprising.

"After watching All Quiet in Spring, I thought a lot, and I had many words to describe this movie, but in the end I gave up describing it, because any words to describe this movie are pale and blasphemy Yes, the best way to present a movie is the movie itself, I think every audience who watches this movie can feel its unique charm."

Seeing such a statement, Bai Qiquan was momentarily stunned.

Wasn't this person still spraying movies before, and changed his mind after watching it?

Is this a little too exaggerated?

Bai Qiquan himself had watched the entire movie, and he asked himself, although the content was excellent, it was only excellent. If he transformed a film critic who was biased from the beginning into what he is now, could Director Lu really add a part to the movie? What computer accessories?

Not really, really not.

He scrolled down through the comments.

[Director Lu's movie is really invincible, how much this judge looked down on him before, but now he licks it so much! 】

【Am I the only one who finds it strange that the judges who were angry at Lu Yi a week ago are suddenly blowing up now?I'm afraid he changed his mind after receiving the money, or it was Lu Jian's hype in the first place? 】

[There is no key information in this comment, I feel that it can be applied to any movie, it is probably a scene talk]

[I can understand if you say that Lu Juan's movies are scary. After all, everyone has been scared, but Cannes is an art award. Do his horror movies really have artistic elements? 】

[I still believe in Dao Lu's strength, he can shut up those picky judges with his quality, awesome! 】

[No way, no way, there are still people who don’t understand the black and red hype now, first come to a personal anger to attract attention, and then to clean up the white and reverse, it’s old marketing. 】

[When will this movie be released in China? Is it only shown in foreign countries and not in China? 】

There was another scolding battle in the comment area, and Bai Qiquan had watched too much. At the beginning, he was still very angry, watching those rhythmic people jumping and gnashing their teeth.

But then he didn't care, anyway, the work is not money, and not everyone will like it.

But seeing these comments, he still murmured in his heart.

If he hadn't seen the original film, Bai Qiquan might really think that the movie was super awesome, but he had seen it, and Bai Qiquan felt that it was really not that bragging.

"Could it be that Director Lu really stuffed money?"

He was also a little uncertain.

In mid-May, the Cannes Film Festival will begin.

This time, because of the release of Lu Yi's film, the film festival has attracted more commercial attention. The hotels around the city are full a month in advance, and even the hotels in the next city may not be able to book.

In the past, many movie tickets at the film festival could be bought casually, so there was no need to worry about not being able to buy them. But this year, tickets for "All Quiet in the Spring" were hard to find, and even tickets for other movies sold a lot more.

Fortunately, Bai Qiquan had two movie tickets from the company.

You can watch it with your girlfriend.

===381. You translate for me what is healing===

Lu Juan arrived in Cannes half a day before the premiere.
