"It's opening!" The actresses were already sitting in the front row. Su Yin glanced around and saw that except for them, the rest of the first row was all men.
"Yeah," Tang Yue maintained her posture well. She sat up straight, then leaned forward unconsciously. "I think there should be another movie coming out, right?"
"Right," Lin Xuan'er nodded. She shook the glass of sweet wine in her hand and said, "Generally speaking, this movie would be a strong contender for an award this year."
"The program brochure has been delivered." Wang Xingrui said softly. When the young and handsome young man came over, she immediately took it with a smile.
It was only then that Luo Chen reluctantly sat down next to them, and Ling Hu came with him.
"Didn't Brother Bei come with you?" At this time, Wang Xingrui looked up at them and asked with some confusion.
She originally thought that Helian Bei would come with them, but she didn't expect the result to be like this.
"No." Ling Hu stretched himself and said with a smile, "Brother Bei seems to be waiting until tomorrow to come. After all, today is not the award ceremony."
"But Brother Bei's film didn't participate in the film festival selection this time," Tang Yue said, glancing at Zhang Yingyuan's back as he sat with Zhou Yiyang, and then whispered, "What a pity for Director Zhang. If he wasn't the chairman of the film festival and had to avoid suspicion, it would definitely have been selected for the main competition unit!"
"I've heard Brother Bai say that before," Su Yin said excitedly, "Director Zhang shot this movie really well and has a lot of ideas. He was shocked after watching a few clips on the set."
"Really?" Lin Xuan'er's eyes lit up when she heard this. It seemed like she had very high expectations for this movie. "It's a pity that we can't see it for a few days."
Zhou Yiyang was now sitting next to Zhang Yingyuan, and sitting on the other side of Zhang Yingyuan was Ning Mang.
As soon as the three of them sat there, the reporters ignored the many celebrities present and focused their cameras on them.
Zhou Yiyang had long been accustomed to these scenes. He smiled and continued, "Teacher, among all the movies in this magazine, if you only look at the titles, which one is your favorite?"
At this time, Zhang Yingyuan slowly opened the program brochure and saw the first page of the program.
The first program was the screening of the participating films. I didn’t know the director of this film, Zhang Yingyuan, and he seemed to be a newcomer.
However, Zhou Yiyang put the highly anticipated Moonlight Girls' new song performance in the second place, which surprised Zhang Yingyuan:
"I thought you would put the four of them first. After all, you know that many people watching the live broadcast are here just for them."
Zhou Yiyang laughed. He knew that this was probably what most people would say after seeing this program list.
"Indeed, many people think so, but I don't think so. I think the theme of this film festival is movies, and everyone's attention should be on movies. Their performances may be highly watched, but if they are played first, then what is the difference between it and those ordinary award ceremonies?"
Zhou Yiyang paused, then whispered, "Besides, the four of them have just taken their seats, so we can take this opportunity to sit down and rest for a while!"
Ning Mang then continued, "Director Zhang, Lao Zhou really loves movies. If it were me, I definitely wouldn't have thought of this. Lao Zhou has a bigger vision."
Zhou Yiyang raised his eyebrows after hearing this, then laughed: "I'm not as good at talking as you, but you're still better."
Zhang Yingyuan listened to the two brothers bickering and found it extremely amusing. "You two have a really good relationship, but I looked at the films in the exhibition this time, and there's even an animated film?"
Zhou Yiyang hummed, then glanced at Zhang Yingyuan, as if trying to discern Zhang Yingyuan's attitude towards cartoons from his reaction. However, Zhou Yiyang tried many times and found that he still failed. He really couldn't discern Zhang Yingyuan's true attitude.
"I think cartoons are pretty good!" Ning Mang answered directly, "I used to think cartoons were for kids. But last year, after watching several American animated films, I discovered that some good cartoons are just as good as live-action movies!"
Zhang Yingyuan finally smiled. "Don't you think I don't support your ideas? No, I saw a lot of cartoons in France before, and they really have their own ideas. I've been waiting for you to make a cartoon that's both meaningful and a box office hit!"
Zhou Yiyang looked at Zhang Yingyuan's expression and knew that what he said was his true thoughts.
Zhou Yiyang smiled shyly, then continued, "Teacher, I've discovered that you really have the ability to predict the future. I do have this thought now."
Zhang Yingyuan immediately laughed, then patted Zhou Yiyang on the shoulder and said, "Well, not bad, you are quite creative. I'm looking forward to the work you will produce."
After Zhang Yingyuan put down the program leaflet, he said, "To be honest, the new directors you found this time seem quite talented. I haven't even thought of some of the themes and content. I'm really looking forward to this screening."
Zhou Yiyang immediately laughed: "Indeed, I am looking forward to it too."
However, most of the viewers watching the live broadcast in Moonlight at this time did not think so. They had been waiting in the live broadcast room for so long just for Moonlight Girl's performance.
Now that they know that Moonlight Girl will not appear until the next movie is finished, these viewers have indeed begun to express their opinions and comments online:
"Why is it arranged like this? Don't we have to wait a long time?"
"I don't understand what Zhou Yiyang is thinking. Doesn't he know what we, the audience, are waiting to see?"
"As a viewer who just wants to see the show, I'm speechless. This kind of film festival is full of art films that I don't understand. I don't know what's good to see!"
Zhou Yiyang didn’t know what was being discussed online at the moment, but Guan Fei could see the online comments at any time.
When she saw this, she couldn't help but laugh: "Are these people here to stir up trouble?"
Zhang Yingyuan sat next to her and glanced at the comments. Then he said with a smile, "Don't pay attention to these people. When the movie starts, they might become the same group of people who blindly praise the movie again."
