Illiterate top class: three years of poor performance, become a superstar

Chapter 259 "Infernal Affairs" Overseas Premiere (4K)
"..."

In order to avoid being unable to sleep even though it was late at night after arriving in New York, Lin Jia-Nian preliminarily planned the flight itinerary early in the morning.

The basic balance between work and rest is naturally taken into consideration.

Although the current development of the situation has completely deviated from the established assumptions, it is still the same in major aspects.

The end result is even more similar.

That's okay too.

Anyway, time is gone and there is no use regretting it now.

Some uncontrolled things may happen during the process, which is also within reasonable limits.

There are no waves that only rise but never fall, right?

only……

"Xu Nian, don't go too far!" Lin Jia Nian gritted his back teeth and said with a trembling voice.

Those who don’t know may think that they are shaking with anger~
Only Lin Jianian knew in her heart that she was really in trouble.

The changes that are happening every second now are a little different from the world she knows.

Especially since I had some experiences just now.

Belonging is the result of achieving multiple goals with one stone.

And let the first step go perfectly, no longer hiding anything from each other.

It is the accumulation of further quantitative changes in the 'relationship' between them.

but……

What's going on now!
What is the situation!

Feeling that Lin Jia Nian, who was resting on his left arm, was trembling slightly, and suddenly scolded through gritted teeth, Xu Nian realized belatedly that his right hand, which had been spinning in circles, was a little too flexible.

Accidentally, the center of the highland stood tall and graceful, and even... some chain reactions occurred.

For example, one of Xu's legs was trapped tightly, and he could still feel an unusual chill.

So, Xu Nian hurriedly said: "Sorry, sorry."

Unfortunately, because the left arm was pillowed, the blood supply was affected, and I couldn't even control my right hand to stop.

Lin Jia Nian was so angry that he bit Xu Nian on the shoulder: "You!!!"

"Don't go too far in life!"

"You have to know, regardless of everything else, we are still neighbors who never see each other when we look up. Sooner or later..."

"I was wrong."

"I really don't want to say 'A man who travels a hundred miles is half a mile'!"

Seeing this, Xu Nian rolled his eyes and finally came up with an idea, then he whispered a few words into Lin Jianian's ear.

Lin Jianian was completely surprised.

Then there was a silence that lasted for more than half an hour. Finally, Lin Jia looked at the roof of the fully enclosed rest suite: "I..."

"If you don't do your best, I'm going to go crazy! Anyway, don't rely on me when you get to New York!"

Xu Nian slightly disagreed with this: "It's you who won't let yourself go."

"When you made the decision at the beginning of the month, you never thought that the bullet would hit you so quickly."

"Of course, I didn't expect it either."

Lin Jianian sighed, and then said: "It's a bit late. At this moment, I suddenly feel that a hug has the most emotional value."

Xu Nian laughed when he heard this and said with emotion: "No wonder the 787 is called the Dreamliner. It's not that a thousand miles in a day is better than a thousand miles in a day."

Lin Jianian: "..."

Her teeth were about to shatter.

The current situation is definitely not the ending of the first step as expected!
Regarding this scene, really...even if she didn't know much, she knew that all that was missing was the extremely thin 'window paper'.

It's even better to just pierce the 'window paper', maybe the scene is not so ridiculous!

Probably the only good thing is... the completion of the planned itinerary was far beyond imagination.

The two of them had almost no real rest during the whole process.

very tired.

I just want to go to New York and have a good sleep... Of course, Lin Jia Nian thinks it's best not to stay in a hotel!
…………

…………

The third time Xu Nian came to New York was at one o'clock in the morning. From the plane, he could see the lights of the entire city, shivering in the cold wind.

The real-time temperature has dropped to below zero.

Inside the constant-temperature cabin, looking at the bleak winter wind outside the porthole window, Xu Nian couldn't help but wrap up his clothes.

Depending on the situation, tomorrow's premiere will be another tough battle against the weather.

Mr. Xu had made plans long before he got on the plane.

Considering that the first two arrivals in New York brought JFK Airport to a semi-paralysis.

He wondered not to create more problems for JFK Airport.

After all...there are only three things that can happen.

So, when the plane landed, Xu Nian and Lin Jia Nian drove quietly and directly transferred to a commercial vehicle to leave in a very low-key manner.

Didn't cause any additional movement.

Presumably, New York's JFK Airport is already grateful to Mr. Xu for his kind heart.

It must be a thumbs up status.

In fact, the person in charge of this term will probably want to kowtow to Mr. Xu.

It has nothing to do with the fact that the crew's itinerary for "Infernal Affairs" has been exposed, and they were blocked at the airport by various North American groups, and the scene was lively for more than half an hour.

Who told Li Cheng and others to fly so fast and arrive so early~

Although the main creators of "Infernal Affairs" flew to North America by private plane this time, Li Cheng and the others arrived nearly two hours early.

For no other reason.

Master Xu was a little hungry, so he set off a little late.

It just so happened that the route was slightly different and the aircraft type was slightly different, resulting in a slight delay in arrival time.

Let's put it this way, while Lin Jianian's private plane was still flying across America, various people had already blocked Li Cheng.

And various media outlets have immediately released the "appalling" entertainment news.

'Infernal Affairs went to the United States, starring Xu Nian was mysteriously absent'

'Where did Xu go! '

'Crazy at the airport, Infernal Affairs crew members were surrounded'

'...'

Various media reported on the "Infernal Affairs" crew's trip to the United States from different angles through various international social media platforms.

The scene where Li Cheng and the others were surrounded was slightly exaggerated.

"Infernal Affairs", which was simply announced in the North American market, gained a lot of exposure and gained considerable popularity.

According to incomplete statistics, at least more than 35% of the people in North America know the movie "Infernal Affairs".

And many netizens spontaneously and actively discussed it enthusiastically.

"A must-see if you have Xu! His performance is so delightful!"

"What a pity. I didn't expect that Xu was not traveling with the crew. I couldn't see him on the spot!"

"It should be a very interesting movie. I hope to see Xu tomorrow."

"Recently, I suddenly fell in love with Chinese literature and art, and I'm looking forward to the release of Infernal Affairs."

“I hope to see more Chinese culture!”

"..."

There are rhythm masters arranged by Chinese Film and Television, Tianyue, Infernal Affairs, etc.

Deliberately guided some speech trends.

This is also the proper meaning of the title.

In fact, neither Xu Nian, Li Cheng, Zhuang Hui, nor even the higher-level Chinese film and television companies attach much importance to Oscars.

However, they all hope to win some awards.

How should I put it? In the process of development, society will naturally form some conventional rules.and 'hidden rules'.

Once the rules have been formed, latecomers have almost only one alternative.

Understand the rules, adapt to the rules, question the rules, become the rules.

This is the order of the road.

The first thing you need to do is to fully understand the existing rules, and then do this and that.

Specific to "Infernal Affairs" or Chinese-language film and television, what needs to be done is to understand the 'authoritative' awards that are formed based on the focus of multiple factors such as market and global reputation.

For example...Oscar.

After understanding the Oscar rules, the second step is to adapt to the rules. Just talking about "Infernal Affairs", the second step has already gone 99%.

After getting used to the Oscars, that is, after winning some relevant awards, the next thing to do is to use your strength to question the Oscars.

Yes, the Oscars are one of the 'rules' of global film and television that have been developed over the past many years;

But that doesn't mean the world can't have another 'Chinese Oscar'.

Use strength to question, and then use strength to become the rule.

For example, the outcome expected by all parties such as Chinese Film and Television is... to upgrade one of the three major Chinese film and television awards to make it more global.

This requires a steady stream of Chinese film and television works to successfully adapt to the rules.

At present, "Infernal Affairs" is the pathfinder and pioneer seed player in all of this.

…………

At two o'clock in the morning, Xu Nian successfully met up with Li Cheng, Zhuang Hui, and Meng Chao alone.

On the bus from JFK Airport to Manhattan, Lin Jianian swayed from side to side for about 10 minutes.

In the end, he made a choice not to stay in a hotel with Xu Nian, or even stay in a hotel with Xu Nian, but directly stay in her residence in New York.

Although he was reluctant to leave, Lin Jianian suddenly began to have no confidence in his self-control and restraint.

In order to avoid facing too huge 'challenges' again and again, Lin Jia Nian can only be cruel to himself.

Therefore, until Xu Nian got off the bus, she hung herself on Xu Nian as a 'koala'.

To fully implement two words...'greed'.

Then, before Xu Nian got out of the car, he said fiercely: "We don't even talk about dating dogs!"

Be sure to completely eliminate love brain.

Eliminate dependence.

Avoid falling into it.

Stop enjoying intimate love relationships.

I must give birth to 5 children in a clean and innocent manner!
.........

"It's been a hard journey."

"Hard."

After exchanging pleasantries, Xu Nian took the initiative to bring up the business: "Looking at the situation, everyone is not too sleepy. Why don't we go over the process for tomorrow first?"

Li Cheng immediately agreed: "Okay!"

Not to mention sleepy, he was in great spirits now. It was his first time taking a transoceanic private plane and he fully enjoyed the comfort.

So much so that they accidentally slept for 10 hours on the plane.

At first glance, he is not as experienced as Lin Jia Nian, nor does he know how to arrange and plan as well as Lin Jia Nian.

All I can say is...Lin Jia Nian is really too comprehensive.

Li Cheng quickly opened an additional private conference room in the hotel and prepared a process outline.

He briefly shared his plans.

Xu Nian quickly figured out his position in the process, then patted his butt and left: "You guys get busy first, I'm going to bed."

"I hope you will be as energetic as you are now tomorrow."

Li Cheng: "?"

Zhuang Hui: "?"

Meng Chao: "..."

Each of them was more dumbfounded than the other, especially Meng Fangu, who almost had his thigh broken.

Obviously, he has traveled with Xu Nian on private planes many times, and he knows how to make good use of time to minimize the impact of jet lag.

result……

This time I forgot all about it.

…………

On December 12, New York time, at 21 p.m., the North American premiere of "Infernal Affairs" kicked off.

The event took place at a well-known theater in a Manhattan neighborhood.

The scene and two streets near the scene were already blocked an hour before the event started.

The first to 'debut' in a similar collective form was Xu Nian's local North American fan club.

Namely: foreigners gathering in New York.

Among them are those crazy star chasers, but also some relatively Buddhist players.

And Xu Nian fans who are hard to predict.

Then came some passers-by and melon-eaters who came specifically to join in the fun.

Then there is the Chinese group of Xu Nian North American Fan Club.

They are Chinese fans who are independent from New Year fans, and the ingredients are actually more complex.

There are even groups of young people and black people mixed in.

The last one to 'appear' is the New Year fans in North America. This group of people has all the characteristics of New Year fans.

Even if they are separated by an entire ocean, they will voice their support for Xu Nian online anytime and anywhere.

The active scope is basically domestic social media platforms.

Of course, there are also entertainment media that can be at the forefront no matter which country they are in.

Obviously in such a situation, the North American premiere of "Infernal Affairs" cannot follow the conventional process.

There is also no option for the creators of "Infernal Affairs" to watch the movie with the audience.

Directly in the form of a public event.

At this moment, Li Cheng, Zhuang Hui, Zhong Jiahui, Xu Nian and others appeared collectively on the stage.

On-site host cue process.

Li Cheng spoke first despite the huge noise and a certain degree of disorder at the scene.

"Ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon, it's my pleasure..."

After a simple but unavoidable opening remarks, Li Cheng introduced the movie "Infernal Affairs" in the shortest possible language.

During the process, Zhuang Hui added that he had canceled his separate speech process.

This was followed by a brief speech by the lead actor Chung Ka Fai.

Finally, Xu Nian came on the stage, and the audience immediately concentrated their firepower and attacked Xu.

: "Xu, my question has little to do with Infernal Affairs. I would like to ask why Xu was not with the main creator last night."

Xu Nian answered bluntly: "The timing is not coincidental."

The main theme is simplicity, calmness and fearlessness.

: "I'm sorry, my question has little to do with Infernal Affairs. With so many people at the scene, Xu, will you do the signing session?"

Xu Nian: "Yes, but the time will be controlled within 30 minutes."

: "Is Infernal Affairs officially released this time? What are the specific release areas?"

Xu Nian: "You asked the wrong person."

"..."

Unconsciously, when encountering the media overseas, Xu Nian's live image gradually became more lively.

So much so that all entertainment media are reluctant to stop asking questions.

I even suppressed my curiosity about "Infernal Affairs" which has been shown for a long time...
