Chapter 368

"Ah! Puff! Help!" Zhang Jingchu's face was pale, she looked very panicked, and she shouted for help. She fluttered her hands desperately, causing splashes of water.

Zhang Ran knew that Zhang Jingchu could swim and was very good at water. Seeing her pretending to be calling there, she smiled and applauded: "I give you nine points in this acting skills. If I don't give you ten points, I'm afraid you will be proud!"

Zhang Jing pulled the first hand and brought a splash of water on Zhang Ran's face: "Hate, I'm all over, you don't cooperate with me!" Then she reached out with grievance and said, "Pull me up!"

Zhang Ran lay on the side of the boat, held Zhang Jingchu's hand and pulled it up, and hummed in his mouth: "Pick up the radish, pull up the radish, hi ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya

When Zhang Jing first saw Zhang Ran laughing at her, her eyes rolled, and then she pulled her suddenly. Zhang Ran was suddenly out of reach, and she was pulled into the water, with a large stream of foam and splashes.

Zhang Ran wiped the water droplets on his face and glared at Zhang Jingchu and said, "Okay, Zhang Jingchu, it's so vicious!" He really didn't expect that Zhang Jingchu would actually pull himself into the water.

Zhang Jingchu snorted, pouted and said proudly: "I fell into the water, and you still laughed at me, you deserve it!"

Zhang Ran looked around. There were people on the bridge and the boats were smiling at them, and they didn't want to argue with her: "Okay, hurry up and go ashore. Look, so many people are watching us!"

It's summer now, and the water is not cold at all. Zhang Ran first stabilized himself, lifted Zhang Jingchu up from the water, pushed her up on the boat, and then climbed onto the boat himself.

Zhang Jingchu was soaked all over, and her thin dress was pressed on her body. Her flat belly and slender thighs were presented in front of Zhang Ran, showing endless attraction. Her wet long hair was messy on her shoulders, with water dripping on her forehead, and her face was rosy, looking unique.

Zhang Ran couldn't help but say, "Wife, you are playing with the temptation of wet body!"

Zhang Jingchu looked at her body, and her ears were red. She was not afraid of Zhang Ran, and there was no place on her body that Zhang Ran hadn't seen before. But this was a public place. If others stared at her, she would be a little unbearable. She couldn't help but say angrily: "Hate, I'm like this, you're making fun of her!"

Zhang Ran smiled and said, "You will get sick when wearing wet clothes. It's too late to go back to Lidu Island now. I think this is the case, so I'm looking for a hotel first and looking for a dry clothes to change!"

Lidu Island is far away, and it will take almost an hour to rush back, but I am afraid that my clothes will be dry. Zhang Ran asked the boatman and asked him to find a hotel closer to the dock. Then he took off his shirt and twisted it hard, put it on Zhang Jingchu to prevent her from exposing her.

The boat quickly approached the shore, and Zhang Ran pulled Zhang Jingchu into the hotel. After opening the room, Zhang Jingchu went down to take a shower. Zhang Ran asked at the front desk where there was a store selling clothes nearby, and then went to buy two sets of clothes.

After taking a shower, Zhang Ran came out of the bathroom. Zhang Jingchu was sitting on the bed watching TV. Zhang Ran sat down next to Zhang Jingchu, then picked up the remote control and pressed it. A "yes, oh, oh" sound came from the TV. He immediately criticized: "It's so depraved to play such a program in broad daylight, it's simply depraved, it's simply depraved!" After watching for a few seconds, his hand hit Zhang Jingchu's slim waist: "Wife, why don't we learn from the advanced experience of the Italian people?"

Zhang Jingchu hit Zhang Ran in the hand: "Stop making trouble, change your clothes quickly. We still have many places we haven't visited!"

"The clothes we changed are all dry cleaning, so it's impossible to take them away! It's boring to stay in the room. It's better to do some physical and mental exercises!" Zhang Ran threw Zhang Jingchu on the bed.

"It's broad daylight, you, we still want to visit, so hurry up!" Zhang Jingchu was soon moved by Zhang Ran's skillful technique.

"I'm going to be quick!" Zhang Ran promised.

When Zhang Ran and Zhang Jingchu returned to the hotel where the crew was, it was already half past six. As soon as they walked into the hotel lobby, Zhao Fei walked over anxiously: "Oh, Zhang Ran, where did you two go? The phone can't be reached!"

This time, Zhang Ran remembered that he had soaked in water on his phone and had not bought a new phone yet, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhao Fei looked at his watch and said anxiously: "At four o'clock, the International Film Critics Alliance notified us that "The Aviator" won the Febissi Award and asked us to go to the evening to receive the award. Your phone has not been reached, so I asked Huang Lei and the others to go to the scene first. The award ceremony will start at seven o'clock, and it will only be half an hour. You can go and change your clothes quickly!"

The Febissi Award, also known as the International Film Critics Award or the Febissi International Film Critics Award, is an off-site award award awarded at the three major European film festivals and other international film festivals. The event does not belong to any film exhibition unit, but to the International Film Critics Association. The association forms its own jury at film festivals around the world every year and preempts the awards before the Film Festival Awards Conference.

Zhang Ran looked at his watch and looked at Zhao Fei, and said, "Brother Fei, you go to the scene first, Jingchu and I will change our clothes. If it is too late, you can help us get the award." His tone was very calm and he was not panicked at all. Fei Bisi's award was just, and it would be no big deal if he was not in the scene.

Seeing Zhang Ran say this, Zhao Fei nodded: "Okay, hurry up, I'll go to the scene first!" After that, he hurriedly left and rushed to the award ceremony.

Back in the room, Zhang Ran changed into a suit, and Zhang Jingchu quickly picked a blue skirt and then quickly changed it. She turned around in front of Zhang Ran and asked, "What do you think?"

Zhang Ran looked carefully and nodded, "This outfit is OK without hair. It looks quite fresh and suits you very well!"

The Febissi Awards ceremony is not as formal as the main competition unit awards, but is held in the form of a cocktail party, which is somewhat similar to the Golden Globes. However, the awards are not as many as the Golden Globes, with only three or four. Therefore, can it be considered an award ceremony? It should be a few awards given at the cocktail party.

Zhang Ran and Zhang Jingchu arrived at the scene and found the table where the crew of "The Aviator" was. As soon as they sat down, they heard the host of the front desk announce loudly: "The one who won the Febissi Award for the main competition unit of this Venice Film Festival..."

The host deliberately extended his tone, and the people in the audience also raised their ears. The reporters raised the camera in their hands and waited for the answer to be revealed.

"Chinese movie "The Aviator"!"

The guests at the scene applauded. "The Aviator" is now a popular award-winning film festival, and has received strong support from "Movie Manual" and "Visual and Audio". It has a very high evaluation in the film review circle. "The Aviator" is not surprising at all.

Before the hot side was sitting, Zhang Ran tidied up his clothes, stepped to the front desk with applause and flashes, and took the certificate from the league secretary-general Klaus Ed. He looked at the certificate and said in Chinese: "Thanks to the Film Critics Alliance for awarding this award to me. This is an important encouragement for young directors like me. Thank you to the crew, so the members, without your efforts, there would be no movie. Thank you everyone!"

The audience was applause from the audience, and everyone believed that the Febissi Award was just the beginning. Because on the last day of the film festival, off-site awards were awarded one after another since the morning.

As expected, "The Aviator" won several consecutive awards since the morning of the 11th, the Most Innovative Film Awards, the Movie Future Awards, the Pacinetti Awards for Best Picture and the Best Actor Awards.

Zhang Ran couldn't figure out what these awards were. There were dozens of similar awards during the film festival, and he was too lazy to care about so many. He just accepted the awards with him.

In fact, the off-site awards of the film festival are awarded by different organizations, and each award has its own focus. For example, the Catholic Culture Award is an award issued by Protestant and the Catholic International Film Organization, which is awarded works that describe human nature well. Therefore, the off-site awards and the grand prizes in the main competition unit are not much related. Winning the off-site awards does not mean that you can win some of the grand prizes in the main competition unit.

Of course, winning more off-site awards means that the quality of the movie is reliable, and the hope of winning the main competition unit award is definitely greater than that of the movies that have not won the award.

When the film festival is about to end, the most important basis for whether a movie will win the award is whether the crew will attend the award ceremony. Therefore, many reporters tried every means to inquire about the crew's itinerary. Ju Wenpei from the movie channel also found Zhang Ran to inquire about the news. Zhang Ran did not hide it and told her that she would have a night-long award ceremony. Soon, Chinese journalists in Venice ran around and told him that "The Aviator" would definitely have a prize.

Media reporters from various countries have determined that the strongest competitors of the Golden Lion Award at this Venice Film Festival are the Chinese film "Flyer" and the Spanish film "Deep Sea Sleeping".

The three major film festivals have their own characteristics: Cannes masters, Berlin is more political, and Venice is good at art. The Venice Film Festival has always emphasized that films serve serious art. It focuses on film experimenters from various countries and encourages them to shoot films with novel forms and unique techniques. Even if there are some flaws, they can be accepted by the film festival as long as they are innovative. Therefore, "The Aviator" has a strong personal style and strong artistic characteristics, especially favored by Venice.

"Sleeping in the Deep Sea" tells the true story of a Spaniard named Raymond Sanpero. He injured his neck in an accident, resulting in high paraplegia and was ill in bed for 30 years. During these 30 years, he has been committed to supporting euthanasia and strives for the right to euthanasia. This is a movie with heavy themes, but the director handles it sadly without being hurt. The details of life and beauty dilute the debate on the right to life and death. It is a masterpiece that points directly to the hearts of the people and is also the highest-rated film of this film festival.

The other two movies that are considered capable of attacking the Golden Lion Award are the British movie "Vera Drake" and the Korean movie "Empty Room". Both movies have high media ratings, with one ranked third in the magazine rankings and the other ranked fourth.

"Villa Drake" is a film describing illegal abortion in the UK in the 1950s. The heroine of the film, Vera, is a selfless woman who devotes love to her ordinary working family in front of her family and friends. At the same time, she secretly visited some women to help them undergo artificial abortion to avoid unnecessary pregnancy. Her behavior was illegal in the UK at that time. When the movie premiered in Venice, "Villa Drake" was protested by religious figures in the cinema due to its sensitive subject, which caused the broadcast to be interrupted for a while. However, the mainstream media highly praised the film and believed it was a masterpiece.

"Empty Room" is a work by Korean director Kim Ki-duk. It tells the emotional entanglement between a little boy posted an advertising leaflet and a housewife who was abused by her husband. The narrative technique of the whole movie is quite unique. After watching this movie by the media, it caused a sensation and said that the movie will never return empty-handed.

Of course, this is just a media speculation. It is hard to say who will win the Golden Lion Award. During the film festival, everything is possible. The real result will not be completely revealed until the award ceremony at 8 pm!
