Vol 2 Chapter 723: Devil's Heart

Under normal circumstances, Duke rarely makes rude behaviors in public. When he saw the actor named Fan, he planned to let her bodyguard come over, but then he saw several photographs from the East not far away. The teacher, holding the camera at this side, seems to be waiting to capture the picture of him talking with the other party at any time. ∟,
The other party came to Cannes to rub the red carpet, and in Duke's not much impression of her, this can be described as an iconic figure who rubs the red carpet of various film festivals.
Although he didn't particularly mind the media using him to hype, Duke definitely didn't like it. Perhaps it was because of the habit of looking at the world in a bad light that he had developed over the years. He said to Tina Fei, "Send her away." go."
Maybe he really thinks too much, but Duke doesn't want to be the target of this topic actress' hype.
According to his speculation, if those videographers hired by her take pictures of the other party talking to him, and send them back to China, they will most likely become'some actress who is appreciated by Duke Rosenberg and will soon star in him. New movies, and even news like "Duke Rosenberg pursues a certain actress."
This may evolve into reality based on what the other party has done.
Tina Fei walked over, and casually said a few excuses such as Duke not wanting to be disturbed, and sent the actress away.
"She seems to be reluctant." Tina Fei said after returning.
Duke shook his head, "Don't worry about her."
After speaking, he continued to walk forward, not taking this matter to heart at all, and there was no need to take it to heart.
Along the Corniche, Duke walked to the marina area of ​​Cannes. This is just a small shallow water pier. The small yachts parked here are small yachts. Big guys like the Duke can only park in the open sea if they drive over.
Now that I have come here. Duke was also going to take a look at the wharf area, but he had just walked onto the long pier trestle, when a tall woman oncoming slowed down, the face that could not blush on the red carpet appeared unexpectedly. Kind of embarrassment and fear.
She stopped to stand on the side of the trestle bridge, a little at a loss. I want to look back, but hesitate, want to ignore Duke and walk over, but I can't do it.
Of course Duke saw this and couldn't help but wonder when he became a demon in the eyes of others?
"Hey, Sophie." He walked over, stopped four feet away from the other side, and offered his hand. "Don't you recognize me?"
"Hi. Duke." Sophie Marceau greeted him cautiously, and quickly shook his hand, "I...I just didn't expect to see you here."
Not far in front is a small bar remodeled from a yacht. Sophie Marceau seemed to be coming from there. Duke looked at the empty yacht bar, pointed and said, "Where to sit? "
Sophie Marceau hesitated for a while, but nodded. "I can't stay too long."
Perhaps the whole world is preaching about the director's talent and reputation, and praises his kindness in actively participating in charity and social welfare activities. But Sophie Marceau knew very well that under the other's peaceful appearance, what was hiding was a devil's heart!
Sitting at a table on the yacht, she just asked for a glass of soda and looked at Duke on the opposite side, who was the famous director. Cut off her Hollywood road with one hand.
Sophie Marceau sipped the soda without saying a word. Although this is France, she still feels insecure.
Although she left Hollywood that year, the other party did nothing more. She also gradually forgot that memory, and cut off the idea of ​​going to Hollywood to develop. When sitting opposite him at the moment, she was still a little frightened.
After all, the opponent has been holding something that could ruin her.
Thinking of this, Sophie Marceau put down the soda and asked in a low voice, "Duke, some things have passed for many years, and I don't think we are involved anymore."
"I said..." Duke tapped the oak table lightly. "As long as you don't get to Hollywood, there will be no grievances between us. It's good that you have kept your promises."
Sophie Marceau gritted her teeth and said, "Then can you return the tape to me?"
"Videotape?" Duke was stunned for a moment, then remembered, and he couldn't help but shook his head, "Sophie, I am also a person who keeps promises. After so many years, have you seen any related things spread?"
Frankly speaking, he had forgotten about the videotape. If it weren't for Sophie Marceau's reminder, he would not know when he would remember the absurd things he had done.
"It's just... it's just..." Sophie Marceau still felt uneasy.
After all, this kind of thing can only be guaranteed if you hold it in your own hands.
Duke was never the kind of person who was paranoid to crazy, otherwise he would not fight back after Sophie Marceau helped him deal with Mel Gibson, just let her leave Hollywood, but the same, he It's not the kind of bad guy who can fly a plane in his chest, and he's not too stupid to believe that people like Sophie Marceau will keep their promises after something is missing.
"You keep your promise..." Duke picked up his soda and gave Sophie Marceau a lift. "I also keep my promise."
After taking a sip, Duke motioned to Tina Fei to go to checkout and stood up to leave.
Sophie Marceau hadn't given up her heart, looked up at him, and said, "What if I can help you get the Palme d'Or for this Cannes Film Festival?"
Duke looked down at Sophie Marceau and said, "Thank you very much, but no need!"
Compared to the popularity among the audience, Sophie Marceau did not entertain people very much in the European film circle, and the road has become narrower and narrower over the years.
After getting off the yacht, Duke waited for a while, and Tina Fei quickly followed.
The two walked along the long trestle bridge, and Duke asked as they walked, "Remember the belt I gave you ten years ago?"
"I put it away." Tina Fei frowned and recalled for a while before saying, "I received it in the manor's underground vault that night, and I haven't moved it again. It should be there."
She asked again, "Do I need to find out when I go back?"
Duke shook his head. "Put it in."
Although he has no ethics and cleanliness, he doesn't want to do things that are too bad if not necessary.
Some people in the North American movie circle have always wanted to bring Mel Gibson back to Hollywood. Maybe he can get Sophie Marceau back and continue to perform a good show?
It may also be a good way to deal with Australian savages with the love of French men.
Since staying in Cannes for the time being, Duke has also attended the screening ceremonies of some Hollywood works. In this world, cultural products, including movies, do have similarities, but geographical differences are also an objective reality.
To a certain extent, Hollywood filmmakers, unless there is a problem with their heads, will naturally protect the reputation and interests of this big circle.
Just like Martin Scorsese, despite the European media touting, still firmly call himself a Hollywood director.
Duke is no exception, so after Quentin Tastino received an invitation from Quentin Tastino, he appeared at the Cannes premiere of "Inglourious Basterds".
The screening of "Shameless Bastard" set many firsts during the film festival. When it was screened in the media for the first time, when the iconic subtitles of the title "Quentin" were played out, people began to applaud; When the names of Ting and Pete appeared, there was another enthusiastic applause. 15 minutes before the end of the film, people began to exit one after another, but it was not because the film was not good to see, but because they rushed to the press conference to occupy a position.
This is a very interesting movie about how a group of rascals kill another group of bastards.
For Quentin fans, "Inglourious Basterds" is a movie that makes them very happy.
The film inherits Quentin's usual cold humor, sudden killing scenes, and scenes that Quentin likes, all of which can be found in this movie.
Interestingly, all the stories of the movie were made up by Quentin himself. For this reason, he also arranged a very special ending for Hitler and let him die under the machine gun of angry Jews.
Except for Brad Pitt and the biggest villain, all other characters were assigned the role of "death" by Quentin.
In the film, the scene of the theater fire is impressive. The Germans are locked in the theater like a lamb to be slaughtered, enduring the double torture of the fire and machine gun shooting, and are finally killed by bombs.
This scene is completely opposite to the massacre scenes in the previous "World War II" movies, and Quentin's humor can be seen here.
Those reporters who insisted on watching the movie were blocked at the door of the press center and could not enter the scene. Photojournalists all flocked to the side of the press center by the aisle this time. When Pete and Quentin walked by, the whole press center was rioted. This is also the grandest event except for the "Furious Road" since the opening of the Cannes Film Festival. Scenes.
European film circles are very repulsive of Hollywood movies, but they have to face the reality that whether it is the media or the audience, during the three major film festivals, Hollywood movies are the most chased and craziest.
There are some realities in these worlds that will not be transferred by personal will or the ideas of a small group. European films say that they are good to listen to the core ideas, and that they are not good, they are inexplicable.
As we all know, good stories are one of the foundations of movies, but how many good movies in the European film circle can tell good stories?
In addition, a good story can attract people into the cinema, and the deep core ideas can never be done. The reason is not that the audience does not like thinking, but if they want to think, they will have a far more appropriate choice of philosophy and history than movies. , Psychological, social...
As a result, a very strange phenomenon appeared. European filmmakers considered themselves extremely high-end and disdaind other types of films. However, their films had a very narrow range of dissemination, and they drove the decline of the entire European film, and also lost the past early. The location of the World Cinema Center.
Any film has its own reason. These people may not like commercial films with a wider spread, greater influence, and more audiences, or they may hate them, but it is precisely because of them that the film industry can grow. Only by becoming a leader in many cultural industries can they survive and further expand and pass on.
