I Forged the Myth of the Old Ones

This is rare in history, no, even unique.

Amid the doubts and expectations of everyone, the nominated films for Best Actress began to play.

Naturally, amber is among them.

The host invited a senior in the film industry, an actress who had won the Palme d'Or for Best Actress, to come on stage to present the award.

She glanced at the contents of the envelope, and immediately, a healing and mysterious smile appeared on her face.

"This year's Palme d'Or, the best actress winner is Amber."

The whole place went quiet.

The spotlight came to Lu Jian's side.

That seat is empty.

===386. I also have a problem with my brain? ===

The scene was a bit embarrassing.

Even the cheerful background music seemed out of place.

All the camera lenses were aimed at the empty space next to Lu trip.

Everyone gathered their eyes there, waiting for a miracle to happen.

Some people fantasize that Amber will come out of some dark place and amaze everyone. Some people fantasize that Amber will fall from the sky and come to the stage with a wire hanging. Some people fantasize about lighting up and seeing that incomparably beautiful girl sitting on the seat. girls.

However, nothing happened.

The band was a little overwhelmed, and the host and award presenters looked at Lu Jian with a dazed look.

At this time, Lu Jian seemed to pat the "people" around him on the shoulder, and said a few more words, as if encouraging.

The music sounded again, and the spotlight moved inexplicably.

The spotlights in the venue generally have two modes, one is manual lighting, and the other is automatic tracking. The automatic tracking mode is similar to the focus of the camera, and it will automatically track people's faces. In complex situations, it is generally automatic tracking. +The mode that the lighting engineer manually adjusts on the side.

Now that the spotlight is moving, it means...

The guests present held their breath and watched the spotlight gradually move towards the stage. Although it was empty inside, it was as if there was someone there.

With the movement of lights, the scene became silent.

Many people are thinking, confused, and looking for answers.

Why would Lu Jian do this?

What is the point of doing this?

Why does the spotlight follow the void?

Is Amber really there?

At this time, sitting in the front row, an old man in the art world suddenly applauded.

Taking him as the starting point, the entire venue began to applaud, and the thunderous applause overshadowed the sound of the music, which was deafening.

The spotlight came to the stage, next to the presenters.

It was as if there was a person standing there.

The Cannes actress who presented the award hesitated for a moment, and soon, she seemed to understand something, showing that healing and mysterious smile.

She picked up the trophy and handed it to the side as if there was really someone there.

It's just that nothing catches it.

The trophy was placed on the ground and placed in the center of the spotlight.

The applause stopped at this moment.

The audience was silent, staring at the trophy on the ground, as if they were listening to Amber's acceptance speech.

The silence lasted for a while, and after a while, Lu Jian took the lead in applauding.

"well said!"

he cheered.

With Lu Lian as the center, the applause spread again.

The guests present seemed to have heard a wonderful and inspiring speech, showing a fanatical attitude.

Outside the venue, Pang Zhen and Bai Qiquan who were watching the live broadcast were at a loss.

"What is this doing, performance art?"

Pang Zhen didn't understand.

"This is, this is... I see!"

Bai Qiquan thought for a moment, and seemed to have found the answer.

"This should be combined with Director Lu's previous speech. He said that Amber is real. Her story is not under the control of Director Lu. She is a living person. This means that this role has surpassed actors and surpassed Beyond our understanding!"

"The character of Amber is dead, so her actor shouldn't appear in front of everyone. If she does, it will destroy the artistic conception brought by the movie."

"So, it would be perfect if Amber doesn't appear at this time!"

"Now, she doesn't seem to appear in front of our eyes, but in fact, it is precisely because of this that she can appear in front of our eyes. It is precisely because she does not exist that she exists!"

"Her acceptance speech seems to have nothing, but in fact, it is this kind of blankness that makes her full of infinite possibilities. As long as you think she will say something, she will say it. This is The true meaning of art is the best display of human imagination!"

"Director Lu's move is too clever, really too clever!"

"?"

Hearing her boyfriend's explanation, Pang Zhen's first reaction was whether there was something wrong with this guy's brain.

But thinking about it carefully, with so many bigwigs in the film industry present, it's impossible for everyone to be out of their minds, right?

Their applause is not like a show, but more like sincere.

So, this is a gap in artistic understanding?

She watched the live broadcast on the big screen outside the movie palace, the lonely trophy under the spotlight.

Looking at it, Pang Zhen suddenly felt that there seemed to be a person standing there, smiling at the audience.

The spotlight dimmed, and when it came back on, the trophy was gone.

"I'm out of my mind too?"

Pang Zhen was in a mess.

The host continued to announce the curtain calmly, and then came the final award, the Palme d'Or.

For the audience at the scene, the answer is self-evident.

If All Quiet, which won Best Screenplay, Best Director, Best Actor and Best Actress, cannot continue to win the Palme d'Or and complete the Grand Slam, it would be an insult to art, and that would be Cannes Unfortunately, history will remember this humiliating moment.

The guest of honor, one of the organizers of the Cannes Film Festival, a senior in the French art film industry, picked up the envelope. He hardly hesitated, as if he knew the answer, opened the envelope and read out the name on it.

"Best Picture "All Quiet in Spring", directed by Lian Lu."

The warmest applause rang out, and Lu Jian came to the awards stand.

Taking the heavy trophy with a crystal base and decorated with pure golden palm leaves, Lu Jian came to the microphone.

"What I can say is actually almost finished a few times before."

Hearing Lu Jian's ridicule, many people at the scene laughed in good faith.

Being able to stand on the stage of Cannes and give an acceptance speech is already an honor that many people can hardly get, let alone speaking several times in a row at the same session.

"This movie, as I said, I want to bring you some different feelings, a story about warmth, growth, and healing. I believe that audiences who have watched the whole movie will definitely understand my thoughts."

"In my opinion, the times are different. Human beings have reached the point where they have to change themselves to adapt to the future. While maintaining the status quo, we also have to make some changes. Otherwise, civilization will only usher in destruction."

"The reason why I make movies is not for fame or profit, but for the world. I only hope that my insignificant contribution can make the process of world destruction a little bit slower, and that's enough."

Lu Yi's speech made the audience think a lot.

Some people think that Lu Lian refers to the increasingly serious environmental problems. If human beings do not hurry up to promote environmentalism, the earth will be overwhelmed.

Some people think that Lu Jian refers to the current art world. Many people maintain outdated concepts and suppress new talents. If things go on like this, art will not exist.

Some people think that Lu Juan is criticizing the current movie industry, thinking that most people are eating vegetarian food in their corpses and are destroying movies, and his existence is to save the entire movie industry.

Some people think that Lu Juan refers to his own creation. From classic horror thrillers to current literary films, Lu Juan has surpassed himself in order to keep moving forward and making continuous progress.

Everyone didn't say what they said in their hearts, but only showed that healing and mysterious smile that understood everything.

===387. The pressure came to the Golden Bear ===

Just as Lu Juan got the award in Cannes and got soft, the jury of the Golden Bear Award in Berlin became distressed.

According to the current normal rules, the three major film festivals cannot participate at the same time.

In other words, if you want to win the award of the film festival, you must premiere at this film festival. Therefore, in the past ten years, no film has won the awards of two film festivals at the same time.

This is somewhat mutually exclusive.

After all, according to the criteria of the judges, if a film wins the Palme d'Or, it naturally shouldn't win the Golden Bear and Golden Lion.

After all, literati are always a little bit light on each other. If you think it is good, I must pick a little bit, otherwise I always feel that I am judging awards with your style.

But this time, "All Quiet in Spring" left the judges of the Golden Bear Awards a little uncertain.

These judges had all seen the film in France, and were naturally shocked.

If "All Quiet in Spring" premiered at the Berlin Film Festival, there is no doubt that the relevant awards of the Golden Bear Awards would all belong to Lu Jian, and he would give as much as he wanted!

But now, the Palme d'Or is one step ahead, awarding the grand prize.

So what about our Golden Bear Awards?

If you want to say that you don't want Lu Yi to participate in the exhibition, then the quality of the works of this year's Golden Bear Award is not as good as the Palme d'Or by more than a dozen Golden Lion Awards?
