On May 25, the film held a global live press conference in Cannes. The main creators and media reporters present thoroughly discussed the film's creation and shared behind-the-scenes stories. The legendary stories presented in the film about the fate of small people in the big era deeply resonated with countless viewers. The film will be screened domestically this year.

The film “Sauce Garden Alley” is a film directed by Chen Kexin that was once again selected for the official selection section of the Cannes Film Festival after the 2011 film “Martial Arts”. It is also a film starring Zhang Ziyi returning to Cannes.

The film has garnered widespread attention since it was announced on May 15 that it was shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival's non-competition screening section. On the evening of May 24, director Chen Kexin attended the premiere red carpet with stars Zhang Ziyi, Wang Chuanjun, Lei Jiayin, Yang Mi, Dapeng, Li Xian, and Shi Sha. When the main creators of the crew made their debut, they received enthusiastic cheers from fans from all over the world who had been waiting for a long time. The media and audience gathered on both sides of the red carpet.

This time, the Cannes Film Festival is dedicated toDirector Chen KexinandStarring Zhang ZiyiA separate red carpet exhibition session was set up to show the international influence of Chinese filmmakers.

Along with the song “Red Light and Green Wine Night” by Wu Yingyin, the four divas of the Republic of China, all the main creators of the crew appeared neatly on the red carpet.

The entire red carpet event lasted almost half an hour. As the premiere held at the Cannes Film Festival finale, the weight was evident.

Mr. Fu Mao, Chairman of the Cannes Film FestivalI was also surprised to show up at the end of the red carpet, take a friendly group photo with the crew's main creators, and invite everyone to the cinema to watch the world premiere of the movie “Chaoyuan Alley”.

This time, the world premiere of the movie “Sauce Garden Alley” was held at the Lumière Hall, the largest in Cannes, and the audience was full.

After the screening of the film, the entire audience stood up to greet each other, and thunderous applause rang through the cinema for several minutes.

Director Chen Kexin joined hands with the main creators to express their deep gratitude to the audience. Amidst warm applause, he enthusiastically embraced the main creators one by one.

He said he was very happy that all the main creators in front of the stage and behind the stage enjoyed their creations, so that the film could be seen by audiences all over the world in Cannes. He thanked everyone for their love for the film, and introduced all the main creators present to the audience in turn.

Afterwards, Mr. Fu Mao once again applauded the film and said goodbye to director Chen Kexin. After the premiere, the live audience said that it was an “Epic of Sad Women in a Big Era,” and that the actors' wonderful presentations together formed “a perfect movie-watching experience.”

On May 25, the film hosted a live global press conference. The whole event began with director Chen Kexin chatting about the creative opportunity of “Sauce Garden Alley”. The main creators shared the story behind the scenes with domestic and foreign media reporters in depth.

Chen Kexin said that since learning the story of “The Husband Murder in the Sauce Garden” in 2015, what has moved him the most is the changing context of the times in the story and how this ever-changing era affects individual fate, and this is also a genre he has not involved in his previous film creations.

Actors also stepped out of their comfort zone. They all said that the characters in “Sauce Garden Alley” were different from the past and were extremely challenging.

Zhang Ziyi shared that in order to be closer to the character Zhan Zhou, she went to a slaughterhouse to experience life without the director.

When talking about the most “violent” character in the film, director Chen Kexin made fun of Wang Chuanjun, who played Zhan Zhou's husband. “Since the actor himself is too gentle, he often wears a camera when filming fight scenes because he is worried that his rival actor will get hurt.”

On the creative side, Lei Jiayin said that the character she plays requires a strong sense of explosiveness, not only toughness, but also a strong sense of conviction. Every time she starts filming, she fully discusses it with the director.

Referring to her feelings of cooperation, Yang Mi thanked director Chen Kexin for her trust; there is no reason to disappoint such a good crew.

Actor Dapeng said about the character's appearance that the biggest disruption this time was to completely “change” a person.

Li Xian, on the other hand, revealed on the scene that he almost missed this collaboration at first because there was so much gap between his current character and the characters he had played in the past.

As the youngest lead actor on this trip to Cannes, Kosha said that this was a “dream trip”. Changing her image of “being responsible for the value of force” on the screen in the past was a different kind of experience.

The crew's relaxed and active creative atmosphere was impressive, and everyone's inspiration collided on the scene to present a wonderful group of people.

The film “Chaoyuan Alley” focuses on the background and personal destiny of the big era. The true story intertwines the majestic times, fates, and vivid images of living beings to form a unique legendary color of the film.

The universal proposition of the times and destiny drew unanimous praise from domestic and foreign media, and at the same time, the actors' disruptive presentation also deeply touched everyone's hearts.

The internationally renowned film magazine “ScreenDaily” used “exciting” to evaluate the film “Sauce Garden Alley”, and domestic media and senior film critics did not hesitate to praise it, saying “the director has a steady and firm grasp of the context of the times. This is a powerful and chewy film.” “All of them broke through the audience's imagination, and they all showed a different kind of vitality, which was impressive.” “Chen Kexin is worthy of being one of the most storytellers in China.” “Every scene is full of tension.” “Every scene is full of tension.” “Every scene is full of tension.” “Wonderful Scenes of Living Beings Under Change” “Characters and Characters in the Great Era The relationship is well-designed and has a long aftertaste”.

The pre-screening lineup attracted great attention from domestic and foreign media. After the screening, the film's excellent quality and fresh look brought attention to the next level. When the movie “Sauce Garden Alley” debuted, it stunned Cannes with a good reputation. I'm looking forward to seeing it on the big screen in China soon.
