Chapter 826： In the dust

When Hugo arrived at Nice Cote d’Azur International Airport, it was already five thirty local time.

The closing ceremony and awards ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival will kick off at 8 o’clock, and the red carpet will officially begin at 6 o’clock, so Hugo’s time is very tight, but even so, there is still a big crowd at the exit of the Cote d’Azur Airport. Duo of reporters, looking up at the boundless dense crowd.

Seeing Hugo coming out, all the reporters rushed up in a swarm. Samora and Joseph were already prepared for such a situation. The two went one after the other, Joseph opened the road in front, and Samora cut the rain. If the protection is in the middle, he cut the waves all the way, and walked straight forward.

The reporters held their cameras at Hugo and kept pressing the flash. They kept yelling, "Hugo, do you think you will win the prize?", "What do you expect from tonight", "Palma Palme" Who do you think will take..." These questions are like a summer rainstorm, pouring down, and mixed with them, there are also several questions like "Do you have a secret lover in Europe?" People can't laugh or cry.

As the Cannes Film Festival enters its last day, all the heat has reached its highest point. The reporters are absolutely irresponsible for breaking news. Even if there are two people, Joseph and Samora, plus Hugo, they are also caught by the surging reporters in front of them. The group was tightly surrounded, and finally with the help of the airport security, the three talents smoothly walked out of the encirclement circle, and then got in a car sent by Harvey-Weinstein under the crowd, and drove away.

Originally thought that after leaving the airport, he would be able to relax, but Hugo has forgotten that there is not much time before the closing ceremony of the red carpet, that is to say, the artists who should be present have already arrived. So, now reporters should also rush back to Cannes to participate in live interviews.

So, soon, the reporter's vehicle appeared after you chased me. The spectacular scene really opened Hugo's eyes. I used to see the excitement of the paparazzi chasing an artist’s vehicle on TV, but now it’s my turn, which I think is quite novel.

Fortunately, the reporters all knew Hugo's destination, and they didn't have to press on. The whole scene seemed lively but basically remained orderly. Nevertheless, the highway from Nice to Cannes witnessed a spectacular scene.

It’s only 20 miles from Nice to Cannes. It takes half an hour to drive there. However, since today is the closing ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival, the road to the Palais des Cinemas is still a bit crowded. Hugo and the others took 45 minutes. Just arrived in Cannes.

After entering the small town, Hugo can’t rush to the Cinema Palace directly. He also has to go to the hotel to change his clothes. When passing by the Cinema Palace, he can see through the car window that the red carpet has already opened. There are many artists. They all stood on the red carpet to accept photos from reporters and cheers from fans.

There was a bit of traffic jams near Pippondou Square. Some reporters who were standing under the stairs of the Cinema Palace filming the red carpet highlights saw Hugo sitting in the car. They all looked at Hugo dumbfoundedly. They obviously couldn't understand. Hugo has already arrived at the Cinema Palace, why didn't he get out of the car, but moved in the direction of departure? This picture is so weird that they have not figured out why they have been waiting for Hugo's car to leave.

However, the Pippondou square was crowded with cars and stars, but Hugo reached the picture of the car driving away. This caused a lot of discussion on the second day and became a very interesting scene at the 47th Cannes Film Festival. .

Hugo rushed to the Martinez Hotel. Harvey, who had already waited until his hair was gray, rushed up and gave Hugo a hug excitedly. This made Hugo quite dumbfounded, "Isn’t Quentin the protagonist today? , It doesn’t matter if I am late."

Harvey wanted to explain, but Bob Weinstein, who was standing next to him, said, "You hurry up and wash first. Time is too late."

After watching Hugo leave, Bob explained to Joseph, "The discussion about our film has become more and more heated in the past two days, and there have been more and more discussions about Hugo and Uma, so Hugo attended the red carpet. It’s very important to our crew, and he had better know it, who knows what strange questions the reporters on the red carpet will ask."

Joseph immediately understood. In fact, they discussed it on the car from Nice just now. The reason why the reporters are so excited is definitely not just because of the Palme d’Or, but the most likely reason is probably the two "Pulp Fiction". Tian received a lot of praise at the film festival. Of course, Uma was also an uncertain factor. He looked at Bob and said, "What did Uma say?"

The answer was Harvey, "She didn't say anything. She has been very quiet these two days. The interviews only answered some things about the movie. She stayed here more hoping to find opportunities."

In fact, the entire crew of "Pulp Fiction" has left Cannes. Harvey, Bob, and Quentin have all arrived from Paris, while Samuel Jackson, Tim Rose, and Bruce Willis have all boarded. The previous flight went back to Los Angeles. Only Uma stayed in Cannes.

However, it is clear that the Weinstein brothers have also taken more precautions against Uma, especially when Hugo and Quentin have risen strongly with the tide of praise, it is not difficult for them to make a choice. So they also inquired about Uma's situation in the past two days.

Hearing Harvey's answer, Joseph nodded slightly. Then it seemed that the discussion about Hugo and Uma was a normal situation after "Pulp Fiction" was sought after. This was the expected result, and there was no need to panic.

Because Hugo came in a hurry and all preparations were very cumbersome, so Quentin and the Weinstein brothers took the lead in going to the Cinema Palace at a quarter past six. Hugo stayed in the hotel to continue preparing. He was after five at seven. Fencai officially set off. By the time he arrived at the Cinema Palace, it was already half past seven—the traffic jam on the road was very serious.

At this time, only a quarter of an hour was left before the end of the red carpet.

When Hugo appeared on the red carpet, the cheers from the scene immediately rushed into the sea. This situation was even more fierce than at the premiere of "Pulp Fiction". It can be clearly felt that the audience in Cannes saw Hugo. Excitement and enthusiasm. Crazy screams spread freely in the gentle sea breeze of the blue coast. The harsh and uncontrollable shouts tore the strong sea breeze, penetrating the sky that turns red in the twilight, just like the blood red of the sunset sky. , The flame was raging in the blue sky, and in an instant the entire red carpet scene was pushed to an unexpected place.

Not to mention the fans, even the reporters could hardly control their excitement. They stood violently in the front row, trying to record the figure of Hugo for the first time, and even trying to be able to learn from Hugo's "vulgarity". A few words about the reason why the "novel" was called back.

You know, so far the highest voices of the Palme d’Or are still “Red of the Blue, White and Red Trilogy” and “Queen Margot”, and even the latter’s momentum has come from behind, quite a bit of catching up with the former, but now “ The crew of "Pulp Fiction" was also called back, and the situation suddenly became unclear.

Of course, in the eyes of French journalists, they would rather Hugo take the actor and then give Palme d’Or to the "Queen Margot". This is what they like to see. But this is Cannes, Cannes who never knows what will happen before the awards are announced. Therefore, reporters can only hope to see if Hugo can reveal some news.

As a result, the red carpet set off a frenzy before it was about to end.

Although Hugo rushed over all the way and without stopping, it was inevitable that there was some fatigue between his eyebrows-last night at the Nürburgring, he did not fall asleep until three o'clock this morning. But even so, in the face of such a noisy red carpet, Hugo is still comfortable with it.

"Hugo, do you think you have a chance to win a prize tonight?" a reporter with a strong French accent roared hoarsely, and there was an eye gleaming with hope, which looked like a pack of wolves. , Hugo couldn't help but laugh.

"I think compared to awards, this year's appreciation of so many masterpieces in Cannes is the biggest gain." Hugo's Tai Chi skills have gradually matured, and the problem can be solved with one stroke or two strokes.

Obviously, the French journalists who had unlimited hope for the "Queen Margot" were unwilling to surrender, and then asked, "Then what is the most impressive work for you?"

"'Red" I must say that I was very impressed with this work. Personally, I like "Red" the most among the "Blue, White and Red Trilogy". Wait for it to be in the cinema in the future. When it is officially released, I think I will go into the cinema again. "As Hugo said, he could clearly see the undisguised disappointed expressions of many reporters in front of him, which immediately made Hugo happy.

In the United States, you must always be cautious when facing reporters Those reporters are like hyenas, they will never let go if they bit their prey; but these French reporters in front of me may be because of the special occasion of Cannes Relationship, they always look forward to someone who can praise the host and the work of the host. The unabashed emotion is really lovely—compared to the profession of a journalist.

"Of course there is also the'Queen Margot'." Before Hugo's voice, I can clearly see the overjoyed expressions of the reporters in front of me. This is really interesting. "Isabelle Adjani is what I personally appreciate. An actor of, her every move in the movie is so amazing, I was very impressed."

The reporters in front of them were immediately pleased by Hugo’s words. Even if they were just polite remarks, they readily accepted them, and immediately some reporters shouted, "Hugo, I wish you good luck tonight, I hope you can have a satisfactory result."

Hugo did not hide anything, he chuckled lightly, and the exhaustion of the journey was relieved a lot, "Thank you for your blessing." After speaking, he raised his right hand, the **** and index finger overlapped, making a prayer. The gesture was shown to the reporters. This playful gesture also made the reporters chuckle.
