Forty years, every Cannes Film Festival has an unshakable tradition, that is, at the opening and closing ceremonies, the film festival chairman Jill Jacob and the general manager personally welcome guests from all walks of life on the steps. However, this program that has lasted for 40 years has been broken for the first time at the 62nd Cannes Film Festival. From the red carpet of the closing ceremonies to the award ceremony, people could not find the film festival's top leader, which made reporters start to make various guesses.

Where did Jill Jacob go? The answer is: New York.

In Jill Jacob's opinion, since they have made an exception for Lee Ann, what's the point of making an exception for Evan Bell? This is actually a thought that Jill Jacob is desperate. Today's Cannes Film Festival is definitely a disaster. From beginning to end, even the 59th Berlin Film Festival at the beginning of the year is even better. At least, the Berlin Film Festival has the support of 270,000 viewers, and what is the Cannes Film Festival?

The audience, which has dropped by nearly 40% compared to previous years, and the publishers, which have dropped by 30% compared to previous years, are more controversial awards endings than previous years.

When the 62nd Cannes Film Festival entered its final closing ceremony and award ceremony, Jill Jacob kept hesitating and struggling, and the mood of hesitation and struggle was finally forced to the point of desperate situation, and he had to make the decision to go to New York.

In the audience segment, the starlight of this year's Cannes Film Festival can be described as bleak, even more dim than the Berlin Film Festival, which has always been known as an academic. At the beginning of the year, the Berlin Film Festival invited Kate Winslet's "Life and Death Reading", "Pippa Lee's Private Life" participated by Black Livery, and "Mei Lanfang" starring Zhang Ziyi. Although the starlight is weak, it is still good at that point; what about the Cannes Film Festival? Even the biggest brand Lee Ann and Quentin Tarantino, the biggest brand in their works is Brad Pitt, only Brad Pitt.

Under such circumstances, the star-studded Cannes Film Festival in previous years lost its appeal to the audience in an instant. According to incomplete official statistics, this time, the Cannes Film Festival only had less than 160,000 audiences. This was the worst film festival in Jill Jacob's memory. Especially when comparing the 270,000 audiences in Berlin Film Festival, Jill Jacob felt even more uncomfortable.

In terms of publishers, the Cannes Film Festival has always been the world's largest distribution and trading market. Even the rising Toronto Film Festival is more than one level away. However, this year, the number of publishers of the Cannes Film Festival has decreased by 30% compared to last year, setting a new historical low in the 21st century.

There is no need to look at the official statistics in this situation. The reporters standing in Cannes can see that the small city of Cannes, which is crowded every year, can even see that many movies have spaces even out of the space this year. The publishers no longer compete for the films they like, and even spend a lot of money. Before the end of the Cannes Film Festival, the transaction amount of the copyright has not even exceeded the single digits. In addition, the publishers and film sellers have also begun to penetrate the production business more actively, and they are no longer satisfied with the competition for distribution rights. They also hope to intervene in the development of themes and creative ideas. This is like a bolt from the blue for the Cannes Film Festival.

Finally, there was the judges' session. As expected, the strong Isabel Yuper ignited countless suspicions inside and outside the media, and some even threw out the "shady story". If Isabel Yuper had not given the Palme d'Orches to Michael Haneck, who had worked with him many times, her voice might have been criticized for being criticized as "dictatorship". After the judges' discussion on the last day of the Cannes Film Festival, many judges bluntly said to the reporter, "This is the most difficult week I have ever experienced." The judges' comments on Lou Ye's "Spring Breeze Night" and Brirant Mandosa's "Kinari". This also directly led to the breakup between Isabel Yuper and other judges.

Of course, Michael Haneck's "White Ribbon" won the Palme d'Or, and it can be said that the movie itself has a good reputation, but it is not a big hit; then "Kinari" ranked last in the professional magazine scores in the competition unit, but won the Best Director Award, which is shocking, and even directly triggered a long-lasting booing wave of journalists in the news center; and the special award of the jury actually gave birth to double egg yolks. This is even unprecedented.

All of this was judged by Isabel Yuppel, who had arbitrarily made the judgment after discussing the breakup with the jury, and the "domineering" Isabel Yuppel immediately won the throne of the most authoritarian and domineering chairman in Cannes' history. This caused the other members of the jury to complain, and the reporter's suspicion and doubts were overwhelming.

It is such a Cannes Film Festival that has fallen to the bottom from the inside out, from top to bottom. If Jill Jacob doesn't find a way, then it can be imagined that next year's Cannes Film Festival will only face a more embarrassing situation.

Although Jill Jacob knew that Evan Bell was not a life-saving straw, and the real life-saving straw was still the major Hollywood production companies, and it was justified that Jill Jacob would not deny that Evan Bell's eye-attracting ability is definitely the best in the world. Moreover, the Eleventh Studios represented by Evan Bell are itself one of the important Hollywood production companies. Therefore, as long as Evan Bell is willing to attend the Cannes Film Festival, everything else can be planned slowly.

As for the bargaining chips, Jill Jacob felt that he didn't need to spend too much effort. Although he banned Evan Bale, in his opinion, Evan Bale definitely hopes to return to Cannes. You must know that now Evan Bale is still Berlin's Golden Bear Award and Cannes' Palme d'Or in his real Grand Slam. Evan Bale will definitely not hope that he will never miss the Palme d'Or forever. Even if he can't win next year, it will be very good to continue this opportunity to reconcile Cannes and plan for the future. What's more, a respected person like Jill Jacob personally comes to apologize and express his sincerity. Does Evan Bale have any reasons to refuse?

In Jill Jacob's opinion, no. Evan Bale would definitely agree enthusiastically - no, maybe it's just for enthusiasm. Jill Jacob doesn't think that bastard with thorns will be enthusiastic about him, but it doesn't matter. As long as Evan Bale nods and agrees, everything will be easy.

Jill Jacob was able to stand at the peak of the Cannes Film Festival for 40 years, so he was naturally unique. Although his decisive and killing godfather style caused Evan Bell to strongly resist and ended up in disagreement, as a real big shot, when facing direct conflicts of interest, Jill Jacob was often able to make the most correct judgment, otherwise the Cannes Film Festival would not be able to reach its current position.

So, after nearly a month of adjustment and struggle, Jill Jacob decided to destroy his promise and "took his head" to Evan Bell. However, Jill Jacob would not call this move a bow, but a strategic concession. As long as Evan Bell is convinced to return to track next year's Cannes Film Festival, everything will be easy.

Afterwards, Jill Jacob came to New York with passion, and even the red carpet that had been like forty years, he did not attend the closing ceremony red carpet. He thought that he had already given up his own face to come to the door in person was a great honor for Evan Bell. He had even practiced his expression when he first met Evan Bell in the hotel: he would face Evan Bell with a straight look, but his eyes would narrow slightly to show his age and qualifications, but the corners of his mouth would slightly outline an appropriate curve - not too flattering or too distant. His first sentence was "Long time no see", which could not only avoid mentioning the unpleasant embarrassment directly, but also implicitly implying that the unpleasantness at the time had disappeared today.

But unfortunately, Jill Jacob's expression that had been exercised for a long time was useless. He just threw a blank look, and his perfect expression froze directly on his face. Jill Jacob got a clear answer from the staff of Nine Prince Street: "Evan is going to Los Angeles." This is news that the whole United States knows.

This was a great shame for Jill Jacob. But then Jill Jacob comforted himself: "I came too suddenly. It would be normal for him to leave without making an appointment in advance." He could only comfort himself like this, otherwise he would not be sure if he would start making a big fuss at 9 Prince Street.

Jill Jacob originally heard that Evan Bell was conducting post-production of "mirrors", so he took it for granted and came to New York directly. But he didn't know that this time Evan Bell's post-production time was much shorter than expected. In less than a month, Evan Bell completed his editing, soundtrack and other post-production work. After receiving the news, American media speculated that "mirrors" should be more suspenseful love films like "fatal identity", and special effects should not be the focus. However, this also conforms to Evan Bell's usual style. He is similar to Christopher Nolan, both of which are relatively old-fashioned and regular styles, and their reliance on special effects is not obvious.

After receiving the confirmed news, Jill Jacob could only suppress it even if he was angry. The process of letting him transfer from Cannes to Paris and then to New York completely ignored the need to inquire about the news. After all, Jill Jacob has been in a high position for a long time, and the so-called appointment has not appeared in his dictionary for a long time.

With a grudge against his anger, Jill Jacob had to set off on his flight to Los Angeles again.
