"Qin Guan won a new Best Actor Award, but I'm not happy about it."
"It's called the Golden Horse Awards by Chinese. It's not a Hollywood or European award. It's not even an A-level international film festival."
"Qin Guan has to share a trophy with a Chinese actor he doesn't know. I feel so wronged."
"My beloved idol, please come back to Los Angeles. Otherwise, he will be treated unfairly."
Some China students couldn't stand it anymore, so they spoke up for the Golden Horse Awards.
"The Golden Horse Awards have been held for almost half a century. They are very influential among Chinese films in China, the three regions of China and Southeast Asia."
"The actor standing next to Qin Guan is Andy Lau, a famous Chinese actor with more than 20 years of acting experience. I wonder if you have seen the film" Ambush from Ten Sides "in the US last year. He is the actor standing next to Zhang Ziyi."
"What's" Ambush from Ten Sides "?"
"Oh, the Chinese martial arts film that failed miserably at the box office?"
That was a digression.
There was a heated discussion about whether Qin Guan had improved or regressed after leaving the US. In the end, it was Qin Guan's performance in "Ke Ke Xi Li" that determined everything.
Columbia Pictures contacted Qin Guan shamelessly and got the rights to show the film in independent and art cinemas in North America.
Thanks to Qin Guan's influence in the United States and the two Best Actor Awards, Huayi Brothers Pictures managed to recoup some of the cost of the film, which was supposed to be a loss.
Art cinemas in North America, 138 screens and one month.
The total box office revenue was 3.08 million.
It was more than "Elephant".
This had also increased the number of views on the domestic video search engine for "Ke Ke Xi Li".
China is not like the United States, which extends the lifespan of a film through the sale of videotapes. Once the film has finished broadcasting in China, the viewers can only watch the entire film on the major video websites.
Although the viewing effect on the internet was a little bad, it was free, wasn't it?
But for the investors, Huayi Brothers, this was enough. The subsequent money seemed to have come for nothing. It was all thanks to Qin Guan's influence that he had become more famous.
By the time they figured it out, they found that Qin Guan had disappeared from the country.
Qin Guan's firm didn't announce his schedule until then.
Qin Guan had not returned to the United States, nor was he taking a nap in a luxurious villa in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles.
Now, he was heading to France, where he had nothing to do with his work. It was said that the crew of Columbia Pictures would meet him there.
That's right. The film he was going to be involved in was another masterpiece of Columbia Pictures.
The Da Vinci Code was a film that was rarely associated with religious beliefs. Translator: Lan _ Editor: Efydatia The Da Vinci Code was a film that was rarely associated with religious beliefs.
Columbia Pictures and its director, Howard, had been under pressure from all walks of life ever since the film adaptation of the novel had started shooting.
Thousands of letters of protest flew like snowflakes to the crew, who were about to start filming.
Thanks to the pressure from the Catholic Union and the related guilds, the crew had to be stealthy.
The reason Qin Guan had come to Paris first was because the Louvre Museum in France was an important location for the film.
The "Mona Lisa" painting was an important clue for the film.
At the same time, the crew would also come to France to pick a local actress to escort the film during its trip to France.
When he checked into a hotel near the Louvre in France, he understood why Columbia had been so confident in making the film.
The patriarch of the Italian family, who had saved Qin Guan and Armani in Milan, had invested a large amount of money in the film when he had heard that Qin Guan was in urgent need of help.
The Italian godfather had also put in a lot of effort in the rental of some of the important locations.
As for the source of this middle-aged man's confidence, it was all given by the Asian man whom he had only met once.
He had been searching in Italy for a long time, but he had failed to find a film with a large investment that could catch his eye.
However, "The Da Vinci Code" had been to his liking.
Horror, suspense, and a little bit of intelligence. The question about the noisy religious personnel had been thrown to the back of this bold man's mind.
Qin Guan didn't need to run around for the early stage of the film. He only cared about the role and the shooting. There was only one problem for him.
Where are the director and the producer?
The staff wiped the sweat off their foreheads with a handkerchief and gave them an answer, which left them speechless.
"Are you asking about the director and the producer?"
"They were casting in France when they received a call from Chirac."
"Chirac? Which Chirac? Is it the Chirac I think it is? "
"Yes, the French president."
"Okay, go on."
"I don't know what the director and the president talked about, but they have an hour to talk about today."
"I think the producer and the director are negotiating about the renting of the Louvre Museum."
Qin Guan got nervous all of a sudden. "Do you think they will give us a chance to use the original 'Mona Lisa'?"
"No way!" The assistant shook his head vigorously. "The Art Alliance and the museum have already guessed what we're doing. They just found a replica two days ago and sent it to the person in charge of our props with great fanfare."
"They paid for it out of their own pocket to protect the cultural relics. It's said that the replica is an antique. It's a very delicate replica. Some people in the oil painting field will also be dazzled at first glance. '
