"Labyrinth of the Heart" premiered in Cannes on May 18.

As a new director, Hao Yun had no appeal in Cannes.

He and his team began to hand out flyers early on, which was a necessary procedure.

This way people would know that there was such a work and when and where the first screening would be held.

Jiang Wen also came, and his time with Zhou Yun was very short.

Jiang Wen even helped to hand out a few flyers, but was soon pulled by an acquaintance to chat.

During the film festival, Cannes was full of filmmakers.

Director Hao Yun was very happy to hand out flyers everywhere.

Because he could get some attributes.

Although Hao Yun was delayed for a few days to participate in the promotion of "New Police Story", his French level rose by handing out flyers, shaking hands with others, and simply chatting.

There were also various other attributes.

There were too many attributes to use, so Hao Yun had to apply multiple attributes on himself at once.

The side effect was that his spirit could not bear it.

But he still kept smiling, cherishing the opportunity of the Cannes Film Festival.

For the film, the organizers of the film festival will also help promote it.

They put up large posters on some major occasions, with introductions in at least four languages, including English, French, German and Chinese. People who see the introduction and are interested will choose to watch the movie.

In addition, there are a group of filmmakers specially invited to participate in the premiere.

When the time was almost up, Hao Yun and his friends appeared on the red carpet again.

In addition to the opening red carpet, the organizers will also arrange red carpet sessions for each film shortlisted for the main competition unit and the screening film.

In fact, it is the red carpet that was walked a few days ago.

The red carpet of the Cannes Film Festival is short and refreshes your cognition. It is no wonder that many stars do not leave even when urged, because if they really just walk once, it will be over in tens of seconds.

But it is indeed one of the most watched movie red carpets in the world.

The guests invited to attend the event mainly include Quentin Tarantino, the competition unit of this year's film festival, and of course the Chinese judge Xu Ke. Jiang Wen also invited several other judges.

There is no need to avoid suspicion at this time.

Because Quentin and his team watch the premieres and screenings every day, and have watched many films since the beginning of the film festival.

If you don't come to the film produced by Jiang Wen, you will be guilty.

Almost all the Chinese filmmakers who are still in Cannes are here.

Actors, directors, film critics, capital...

Wang Jiawei, wearing sunglasses, is particularly conspicuous in the crowd. He is not so arrogant that he thinks that the film directed by Hao Yun, a new director, is not a threat to him at all.

Moreover, he is not so stingy.

Even if Hao Yun wins the award, it is not to say that he has surpassed Wang Jiawei.

Many media from all walks of life also came.

The definition of a new director at the Cannes Film Festival is the first time that a work is shortlisted or exhibited.

Even if you are fifty years old and have made twenty films, but you have never been nominated or participated in the exhibition before, you are also a new director.

But Hao Yun is a new director completely different.

He is new from the inside out, because "Heart Labyrinth" is his first time as a screenwriter and director.

He has never even made a short film to practice before.

This makes everyone very curious and want to see it first.

After the red carpet, the main creators went to the theater lounge to wait. This is the last toilet time.

The time is very short.

Everyone is adjusting their emotions. Except for Hao Yun who looks indifferent, even Zhou Yun is a little nervous.

She also participated in this movie. In theory, any film shortlisted for the competition unit has the opportunity to win any award.

She has a chance to win the Best Actress...

Of course, that would be really ridiculous. Her role has very few scenes. The performance style of "Heart Labyrinth" focuses on being natural, and there is no depth at all.

As for why Hao Yun doesn't care, no one has the heart to explore it.

This kid's brain circuit is different from that of normal people. If there is any difference between normal people and normal people, it's just a matter of getting used to it.

No one spoke. After a short break, they entered the theater one after another.

When Hao Yun and his team entered, the audience applauded them.

This has nothing to do with the movie. Any movie exhibited here will follow this fixed process.

The seats of the main creators are in the middle of the audience, and the names of the main creators will be on the chairs.

Before Hao Yun and his team came to their seats, they stood up and gestured to the audience for the media to take pictures, and then sat down to watch the movie.

The movie is in Chinese dialogue, and it is definitely impossible to dub it in English.

It has nothing to do with kneeling or not.

Filmmakers feel that the original dialogue is more emotional.

In order to make people from other countries understand, subtitles are generally used. These filmmakers have been in the battlefield for a long time, and reading subtitles does not hinder their understanding of the plot of the movie.

In the movies he participated in before, Hao Yun did not know what the finished product of the movie would look like until the movie was released.

This time it was a movie he directed, and the editing was completed completely according to his will.

He knows this movie very well.

Therefore, he had time to secretly observe other people's reactions to the movie.

No one cried bitterly.

This was not a sentimental movie in the first place. There was no sentimental part in the whole movie.

If anyone cried, it was definitely a black agent hired by the opponent.

From Hao Yun's perspective, everyone was at least quite serious about watching the movie, and they were all trying very hard.

After the 110-minute movie ended, the lights came back on, and Hao Yun and his team stood up to accept the audience's applause, once again feeling the world's respect for movies.

Then they came to the stage of the screening room to answer questions from the media and filmmakers.

"The Heart Labyrinth" was screened at 11 o'clock, and it was almost one o'clock after the screening.

It was the last show in the morning.

This was actually a very good time slot, because there was no need to rush to make room for the next show, and I could communicate more with everyone, thereby deepening their impression of the movie.

There were staff from the organizing committee handing out microphones on the scene.

After a foreign reporter got the microphone, he immediately asked a question.

"The structure of the movie is a bit complicated. I believe that many viewers today may not understand it - as a newcomer, why did you choose such a complicated way of expression?"

"Are you talking about non-linear narrative? I think it is a tool for the author. I like this narrative style very much. More importantly, this story is very suitable for this way of expression. I chose this style at the time..."

Hao Yun responded directly in English.

This kind of occasion does not involve Zheng Zhi, nor does it make people feel that they are flattering foreigners. Using English is more conducive to communication.

Most of the following questions are asked to him as a director.

Here, we will not prefer to communicate with Jiang Wen just because Jiang Wen is more famous. This is a respect for the movie itself.

Even for reporters from China, the topic is about the movie, and no gossip is asked.

At most, some media do not believe that Hao Yun, as a newcomer, can shoot such a thing. There are doubts in their words and deeds, suspecting that Jiang Wen is behind the scenes.

Chen Kaige was treated similarly in the past, and he suffered no less doubts than Hao Yun.

But this is a normal communication.

It is precisely because of this doubt that the excellence of the movie is more evident.

It is so excellent that it does not seem to be shot by a newcomer.

In order to deal with this doubt, Uncle Jiang gave Hao Yun a suggestion, asking him to show the comics he drew for "Heart Labyrinth" and the storyboard manuscripts used in the filming at the film festival.

Now...

Everyone knows what Jiang Wen's storyboard manuscript looks like, and when they look at Hao Yun's, most of the doubts on the scene suddenly dissipate.

The topic revolves around "Heart Labyrinth", but it soon spreads to all aspects of the film.

A normal new director may not have so much inventory in his stomach, and he will soon be emptied by tricky filmmakers in this process.

But Hao Yun will not.

He has too many attributes, and he has never been short of them.

These attributes come from international directors, screenwriters, actors, and film critics. With their blessing, Hao Yun can not only answer questions appropriately, but also have discussions with filmmakers on the scene.

This process can speed up his absorption of attributes and deepen his understanding of attributes.

Even if it is a temporary attribute, it can improve his film skills.

It was really a pleasant chat.

It was not until 2:30, when the next show was about to start, that the film exchange ended.

This fast pace, everyone is used to it at the film festival.

Just eat two pieces of bread and drink some water, and you can walk the red carpet of the next show, and continue the crazy but enjoyable movie-watching journey.

Once a year, tired but happy.

Hao Yun is no exception.

He ate something in a hurry, and then ran to walk the red carpet of the great movie "Old Boy", and then followed everyone in to watch the movie as an audience.
