Take a look at the ugly players in our country, and then look at the quality of the players in the Italian league, who can randomly drag a local player to jump on the runway. It is obvious how handsome this country is.
Qin Guan got out of the car on the red carpet on the opening day of the Venice Film Festival. He was shocked by the scene.
It was the most crowded Venice Film Festival he had ever attended.
As the long-term host of the festival, the Lido Film Palace was a sacred place for art films.
The architecture and layout of the venue had been designed according to the requirements of the festival.
Even when there was no film festival, the red carpet and the golden lion, which represented the highest award in Venice, were dazzling under the scorching sun of Italy.
Everything there was related to art films. The old black and white photos and movie posters created a nostalgic atmosphere for Lido.
Even though the facilities of the Westin Hotel were not the most luxurious in Venice, it was still the first choice for tourists who wanted to enjoy a movie.
There was nothing else to talk about.
The spacious venue was as crowded as a temple fair during the Spring Festival in China.
They hoped that after the red carpet was over, there would be at least a few hundred shoes that had been stepped on.
Qin Guan was surprised, but he kept a straight face. He got out of the car and waved to the crowd. The square was filled with thousands of people, followed by loud screams.
His voice was so loud that it echoed in the sky.
The people who had finished the red carpet early were glad that they didn't have to watch such a sad scene.
Art films were a minority, so only the people who paid attention to the industry knew a little about them. Ordinary people didn't know much about them.
The purpose of their trip was to snatch the news and see the celebrities.
Therefore, when the most important figures of the film festival passed by in silence, they couldn't help but feel sad when they saw Qin Guan cheering in unison.
They didn't know that they were lucky though.
Qin Guan could feel the deep resentment that came with fame.
Because there were so many people, it was hard to tell whose flash was faster between a mobile phone and a professional camera.
Due to the large number of people on the red carpet, Qin Guan, who was popular on the red carpet, was trampled on both visually and auditorially.
It was the most confusing red carpet Qin Guan had ever walked. In the eyes of outsiders, he was smiling gently, walking steadily and waving his arms like a conscientious actor and idol.
If someone who knew him had been there, they would have been able to see his wandering mind and his instinctive movements.
He was clearly distracted.
How could he not be distracted? The flashes on both sides were as strong as a kilowatt light bulb. The screams that followed his footsteps pierced his eardrums.
Thanks to his perseverance, he managed to walk the red carpet, which was as long as an open-air square.
If a weak actor like Sister Lin had tried it, his soul would have left his body. He would have been shaken out.
As for the cute Italian policemen, they were useless.
Don't count on these lads. They fully embody what it means to be an Italian armed force.
Trapped in the crowd, they could barely protect themselves. If anything happened, they could only rely on Qin Guan himself.
Fortunately, Venice was a friendly city. Qin Guan walked through the red carpet unscathed and entered the Lido Film Palace.
By the time Qin Guan reached his seat, most of the audience was already seated.
Lee An of "Lust, Caution" and Jiang Wen of "The Sun Also Remains the Same" were already chatting with each other.
This was the benefit of the Venice Film Festival for the two nominated films. Two directors and related personnel of the same origin would be arranged together, so it would be easier for them to communicate with each other.
Of course, it would also be more convenient for the camera to focus on the live broadcast.
Qin Guan realized that his seat was right in the middle of the two crews, which served as a bridge between the two crews.
When the time came, the host of the award ceremony would save a lot of trouble when announcing the nominees. The Venice Film Festival did not have any outstanding features. Like the three major European festivals, it was known for its seriousness.
The Golden Lion, the highest award of the festival, would be announced at the end of the ceremony. There were very few Golden Lions.
The Golden Lion Award, which was the most prestigious award in the film festival, would naturally be announced at the end of the award ceremony. The Golden Lion Award had very few awards.
There were only two Golden Lions, one Silver Lion, one Best Actor and Actress, one Special Jury Award and one Gold Osara Award. That was all the awards at the Venice Film Festival.
Of course, it was also highly regarded in the field of indie films.
Therefore, when the host read out the works of the nominees for the Best Actor Award at the Venice Film Festival, the audience was shocked.
Not for anything else, but because of the sentence that the host added after he finished talking about all the finalists and their works.
"According to the rules of the Venice Film Festival, if an actor applies for the Best Actor Award for two films at the same time and is nominated for the Best Actor Award at the same time, the Venice Film Festival will only select one of the films as his entry for the Best Actor Award."
"Those of you who know me might have guessed who I am talking about. Qin Guan is an actor from China. His two films were nominated for the Best Actor Award at the Venice Film Festival."
"I have to apologize to Director Jiang Wen. After a discussion, the jury decided to use Qin Guan's excellent performance in 'Lust, Caution' as a bargaining chip for the Best Actor Award."
"Don't worry about it. I wasn't nominated for the Best Actor Award anyway.
