As a convention, the shortlisted films of Cannes are screened at the film festival every year.
Then Zhou Yihang and Su Yin’s various versions of “Sweet Honey” are no exception.
The Moonlight Girls, who have always been united, will naturally go to see the finished film together for Su Yin.
Even Su Yin was quite curious.
After all, every time Zhou Yiyang edits a movie, it is often completely different from the version they shot.
When they entered, Tang Yue looked at the crowded place and felt uneasy.
"How could there be so many people?" Tang Yue was stunned. "I thought they were all very busy and couldn't possibly fly over just to see us win the award?"
"Because you're so famous now," Zhou Yihang smiled, not in a sarcastic tone, but because he didn't write down his true thoughts. "So no matter what, I have to ride on your popularity. As far as I know, the number of people from China accounted for more than half of the total number of people at Cannes this time."
He glanced at Su Yin and suddenly explained, "But don't feel pressured. Even if you don't win the award, I don't think these media outlets would dare to scold you."
Lin Xuan'er laughed when she heard this and said half-jokingly, "Of course. It's because we're being labeled as internet bullies now."
This is something Lin Xuaner had seen online before. It said that because they were not allowed to say a bad word about them, they were like bullies.
"Bully is good." Zhou Yiyang smiled: "At least it's down to earth."
When they finally found a seat, the movie started.
When Su Yin's face appeared on the big screen, people couldn't take their eyes off her. She was so superior.
Tang Yue, who was watching this movie for the first time, couldn't help but sigh. Although she never said it, Tang Yue knew that Su Yin seemed to be better than herself in appearance, acting skills and popularity.
However, Tang Yue has indeed adjusted her mindset and is no longer as jealous as before.
She knew very well that she had a unique status and there was no need for her to compare herself with Su Yin.
Especially after she won a trophy, Tang Yue became much calmer.
Now Tang Yue couldn't help but hum the melody that runs through the entire movie, which is also the song of the same name "Sweet Honey".
The song was finally sung by the four members of Yue Shao, but Su Yin was the lead singer.
This song "Sweet Honey" was initially an original song and was not very popular on the Internet.
As the movie was shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival, the popularity of this song began to rise steadily.
Zhou Yiyang even speculated that this song might eventually surpass Moonlight Girl's other songs.
However, their minds did not wander for too long. Instead, they quickly calmed down and immersed themselves in the movie.
No matter what angle the death scene is shot from, Su Yin in the movie always has excellent looks and expressiveness. This alone has attracted many judges.
As the applause continued for a long time, Zhou Yiyang couldn't help but complain about the local traditions.
"I remember someone said before that after a movie ends, you can tell whether a movie is popular by how many people stand up and applaud, and how long they applaud."
"I know that too," Bai Yangyu smiled, and continued, "If I remember correctly, among the movies just now, 'Comrades: Almost a Love Story' had the most applause.
From this perspective, we actually have hope.
"There's more than just hope." The person next to him laughed. "It's a romance film, but it captures so much more than just romance. I misunderstood Mr. Zhou at first. His work is amazing!"
"To be honest, although romantic films are not well received in Cannes, there are always exceptions."
When the audience beside him said this, he smiled and looked ahead, then continued:
"Maybe Cannes will dispel the rumors this time and tell others that romantic films can also win awards!"
However, for Su Yin, as the day of her elimination approached, she became even calmer.
At this time, Tang Yue glanced at Su Yin and said softly:
"As expected of you, Xiao Xiao Su, you are worthy of being the youngest artist to hold the three gold medals in our country. You are indeed extraordinary."
At this time, Su Yin couldn't help but glance at Tang Yue and jokingly said, "Tangtang, you know, when you say that, it makes me feel like you're being sarcastic."
"How could that be!" Tang Yue's eyes widened. "I really envy you for your state. When I went to the Academy Awards last time, I almost didn't sleep the whole night."
Soon, it was the day of the Cannes Film Festival awards ceremony.
Zhou Yiyang naturally also arrived at the scene. He knew very well that he had to be here at this time.
Not to mention that Su Yin and she have a special relationship, but apart from this, as a boss, he should also pay attention to the artists under his management.
At this moment, Zhou Yiyang was sitting next to Su Yin and felt that many people around him were taking pictures of them.
"You said, if you really win the award, let's go on stage together holding hands!"
Su Yin smiled shyly, but she thought Zhou Yiyang's idea was good.
"Well, by then, will the popularity of this matter surpass the award itself?"
At this time, Zhou Yiyang thought about this question very seriously, and then said: "What you said is very likely. But at that time, there was nothing we could do. We could only let the Cannes Film Festival suffer a little."
Su Yin covered her mouth and laughed.
She had actually thought it through in her mind a long time ago, and even if she didn't win the award in the end, she would make it public.
She has made up her mind to take some time off after this film.
And she doesn't want to continue deceiving her fans.
In this way, she and Zhou Yiyang can get along like normal lovers from now on, instead of hiding things like they are doing underground work.
As the award ceremony began, everyone became nervous.
The previous ones were all technical and insignificant small awards, and the name of "Sweet Honey" did not appear in any of them.
At this time, Su Yin turned her head and glanced at Zhou Yiyang:
"Brother Yang, we can't be completely empty-handed, right? We even won Best Picture last year!"
"It's precisely because we won it last year," Zhou Yiyang said calmly, "that this year is even more difficult. In fact, relatively speaking, your heroine has the greatest hope."
The next award to be announced was the Best Original Screenplay, and Zhou Yiyang heard his name just after he finished speaking.
He smiled and went on stage to receive the award.
Only Su Yin touched his chin and guessed:
"You're not going to let us go just for this small prize, are you?"
Best Picture, no.
Best Actor, no.
Best Director, no.
When the most anticipated Best Actress award was announced, Su Yin was already lying down.
Until Zhou Yiyang beside her took her hand and stood up.
"You won the award, Best Actress!"
