Venice is a world-famous water city.
However, what it is most famous for is not the scenery, but the businessmen who exploit it to the extreme.
They can squeeze the poor people who have no money and skin them alive.
To squeeze a person's value to the extreme.
Of course, now they have a better name: "capitalists".
The Venice Film Festival will not officially begin in two days, so Fang Yuan has time to play on the streets of Italy with Wolong and Fengchu.
Zhu Lu stayed in Venice for some time, and he became Fang Yuan and Nie Yutian's tour guide.
Just as the three of them were wandering aimlessly in Venice.
I actually met a group of Chinese people who were eating at the table next to me.
In the past two days, all I could hear was Italian.
Now, suddenly hearing Mandarin, Fang Yuan and the other two felt very familiar.
At the same time, the other side seemed to have noticed Fang Yuan's table.
There were several women at that table, two of them were about 33 years old, and two were about 20 years old.
These women all pointed at Fang Yuan.
At the same time, there were three middle-aged men at that table, and they couldn't stop looking at Nie Yutian with admiration.
The people opposite said something again, and a thirty-year-old sister in a blue battle robe slowly walked over with a goblet in her hand.
"Hello, it seems that you are also Chinese, right? Well, we are also excited to see our compatriots, so we wanted to come over to get to know you. I hope I will not disturb you. If I do, I will apologize here."
As she spoke, the sister in blue battle robe raised the goblet and drank it all in one gulp.
When Zhu Lu saw the sister in the blue battle robe, his eyes widened.
There is no way. A magician who is almost thirty years old really can't resist a woman with the attributes of a mature woman or a married woman.
Zhu Lu quickly moved his lips to Fang Yuan, and the shape of his mouth seemed to be saying "Hurry up and agree to it".
Fang Yuan also felt that it was indeed heartwarming to see fellow Chinese people in a foreign country, so he nodded in agreement.
"Okay, it just so happens that we haven't had anyone to chat with for a long time."
After saying that, Fang Yuan and the other two sat down at that table.
When assigning seats, Zhu Lu planned to sit next to the sister in blue robe. He wondered if he could win the heart of the sister in blue robe through this meeting.
Unexpectedly, the sister in the blue battle robe said directly: "Little brother, please sit next to me."
Fang Yuan looked over and saw three middle-aged men sitting on the other side, so he decided to sit over there.
So Fang Yuan sat in.
When Nie Yutian saw that this slutty bitch in the blue battle robe was actually trying to snatch Fang Yuan away, she sat down next to Fang Yuan without saying a word.
At this moment, there is no room on this side.
Zhu Lu widened his eyes and sat down next to the old man helplessly.
As soon as Fang Yuan and the other two took their seats, the people here became enthusiastic.
Especially the four women of different ages, who were frantically looking for Fang Yuan to talk.
The three middle-aged men, as if to save face, spoke to Fang Yuan and the other two as equals.
After some conversation, Fang Yuan and his friends realized that these people were also invited to attend the Venice International Film Festival.
Among the three men, sitting in the middle is director Shang Wujie, and on both sides are producers Hou Wu and Hou Wen.
There are four women, two of whom have a bit of a wifely temperament, and they are distinguished by the color of their clothes.
The sister in the blue jersey is called Catherine. She is a film investor and also a second-generation Chinese American.
The sister in the yellow battle robe is called Lin Yan. She is a screenwriter and a second-generation Chinese American.
The other two are younger, one is called Xu Kexin and the other is called Tang Rou.
They are the two protagonists of this movie.
Fang Yuan also asked why the leading actor of their movie didn't show up.
These people smiled at each other, and then said that their movie was about a lesbian couple, so there was no male lead.
Fang Yuan was even more stunned.
He has also invested in movies and understands the film censorship requirements in China.
It is indeed difficult for movies with themes like Lala to pass the review, no wonder they were not seen at the Golden Dragon Film Festival.
"Um... have you given up the domestic market?"
Fang Yuan raised his own question. After all, China's film market is growing day by day and has now become the second largest film market in the world.
Under normal circumstances, except for film investors like Fang Yuan who don't want to make money, other film investors will try their best to get the films they invest in to enter the Chinese market.
The men smiled at each other again, and director Shang Wujie explained, "Little brother, you are wrong. I am a director from America, and my movies are normally shown in America. Therefore, our movies cannot be seen in China. Of course, it's not that I want to give up, but movies that want to be shown in China need to be reviewed. Movies of our subject matter can't pass the review."
Fang Yuan also nodded in understanding. No wonder he had never heard of the name of director Shang Wujie. It turned out that he was a Chinese director living in America.
Nie Yutian also asked curiously: "Director Shang, how did you get into the United States to be a director?"
As a new director, she naturally admires American films very much.
After all, it is the world's number one TV market.
Wu Shangjie raised the corner of his mouth and thought to himself: I finally asked this question.
He shook his long bangs that covered his bald hair, and then slowly explained, "It's like this. After graduating from university in China, I got a green card and have been living in America ever since. It took me all these years to become a director."
