Chapter 174
Originally, Gu Zhongyu didn't have much hope for the film to win the award. Naturally, he didn't pay attention to the jury members. He thought it was a bunch of old-fashioned academic film critics. He didn't expect that there was such a beauty as Theron.

"There are very few Asian films that can be shortlisted for the main competition unit, and this year is only yours, so I can remember your film, Gu."

"It's my honor to be impressed by my beloved Ms. Theron. I wonder if you have other plans for the evening. Maybe we can have a romantic dinner together?"

Sharitz looked surprised: "You's expression of emotion is very straightforward, not in line with the style of ordinary Asian men."

"Because Asian men give you the impression that they are more humble and conservative?"

She nodded: "Indeed, I can't quite tell the difference between you Chinese men and Neon and Gaoli, because when communicating with others, in most cases you are more polite, restrained and cautious in your words and deeds. It’s so serious that it’s, how should I put it… boring!”

"The differences between Eastern and Western cultures! But there are always rebels, such as people like me."

"Rebel? Interesting, I like your wording, well, anyway, the good mood is gone, and this night can't get any worse, let's go!"

So the two of them found a secluded restaurant, where there is a room dedicated to celebrity dining, so you don't have to worry about being disturbed when you eat here.

Using a fork to put the steak into her mouth, Salize asked, "You just said you like my movie, so you are also my fan? Which character do you like most?"

"No, I just like you, and I'm not your fan, I'm just a viewer. For me, your movies are you first, then the character, and then the movie"

"Oh, so which movie do you like about me? "The Devil" or "The North Wind"?"

"No, it's "Two Days in the Valley" that you filmed a long time ago. The bold performance in it is still fresh in my memory, and I will remember your name then."

"Hahaha! Your answer is too honest, and it won't please women too much."

The movie "Two Days in the Valley" is a black comedy that Shariz acted in before she became famous. The quality of the film is average, but Sarlize has a very sexy performance in it, which makes a lot of movie fans talk about it , watch repeatedly.

Under normal circumstances, other female stars are standing in front of you, and you praise them not to choose some masterpieces or those who have won awards, but Gu Zhongyu instead directly uses a sexy movie from the period of the show as an example. If it is replaced by other actresses, Maybe his face turned black.

But Shariz didn’t. What he hates the most are duplicity men, especially after she won the Oscar for Best Actress through the self-destructive image of the movie “The Devil”, there are always men courting her. , Talking about how I appreciate her performance and dedication.

But in fact, she herself felt disgusted when she saw the character image of this movie. She acted in this movie just to win an award. Self-sacrifice in this kind of movie.

Therefore, the movies she starred in after "The Devil" returned to a relatively normal female image. Even in "Mad Max", she just shaved a crew cut.

Although she only played a supporting role in the movie "Two Days in the Valley", it was a fond memory of her youth. This was the first time someone said in front of her that she liked this kind of butcher-style role.

Gu Zhongyu wiped his mouth with a wet towel, and replied: "Otherwise? Should I say that I like the ugly, fierce you in "Devil Head"? Please, I am a man, the kind who thinks with the lower body, how can it be possible?" Love to see such a woman? All I can say in that movie is that your acting skills are very good, and you are the only existence I can only look up to for the time being."

"Hmmm! That's a vulgar answer, but it's much better than those utterly contrived film critics who talk about art, religion, and discipline, but in fact they just want you to show more in the next movie."

"Well, it's not just them, I also think, May I ask Theron, will you still take on movies like "Two Days in the Valley"? I can play the male lead for free. It has no other meaning, mainly for the art of film."

"Hahahaha!"

Theron was amused by him, picked up the wine glass and touched him, and asked, "When is your "Ball Lightning" scheduled to be released?"

"On the night of the 18th, not a bad time."

"Well, it is more difficult for Chinese films to win awards overseas, and your film is a sci-fi theme, and the judges prefer literary films, so you have to be prepared to return empty-handed." It's my life." Gu Zhongyu replied in Chinese.

"what?"

"Lucky if got, destined if lost, that's how it should be said in English, it's a traditional proverb in China."

"An Eastern proverb full of philosophical meaning, very interesting."

The two then started chatting about movies, hobbies and careers. Saliz originally thought that Gu Zhongyu might just be a small boss of an independent film company, but after listening to the introduction, it was clear that this person was a man spanning multiple fields. The entertainment group tycoon, if compared with Hollywood, is almost at the level of the eight major film companies,

Therefore, the man Gu Zhongyu must have a lot of money, possibly even richer than himself.

"It's hard to imagine that a capital tycoon like you would actually act in a movie by yourself?"

"It's easy to understand. Acting is my first career. The reason why I want to set up a company is to invest in the films I want to make, and I am no longer subject to others. Is there any actor who can refuse the opportunity to completely dominate his own film? "

"Want to completely dominate your own movie? Then you should be the director."

Swallowing a sip of red wine of unknown age, Gu Zhongyu suddenly felt sour in his mouth, frowned and said, "I thought about it, but I can't!"

"why?"

"Being a director makes you even busier. For example, when I came to Cannes this time, my director friend was busy preparing for exhibitions and premieres, but I had time to take a break and come here to have a candlelight dinner with you. This is the reason why I don't become a director. .”

Theron laughed loudly: "Yes, then the two of us may not be able to run into each other. Chatting with you is very pleasant, and I feel much better. After dinner, I should go."

"I send you."

Salize lived in the highest-standard Carlton Intercontinental Hotel, and it was the presidential suite. After all, they were Oscar queens and jury members, and the rooms arranged for them by Cannes were also of the highest standard. Unlike Gu Zhongyu, who only provided the best Ordinary suites, if you want to live better, you have to pay for it yourself.

After opening the door, Shalizi hesitated for a moment, then said to Gu Zhongyu: "Do you want to get up and sit down? Have a glass of water or something."

Is it regular water?Don't be a sewer, right?
Gu Zhongyu smiled and said: "No need, I was hurt by my partner tomorrow afternoon, so I took a man back to the room at night. This is revenge and venting. I don't want to be a prop for you to vent your emotions, although I really want to go in." After finishing speaking He turned to leave.

"By the way, when my movie is screened, I hope Theron you can dress up and show your support, okay?"

"If this is a request from a friend, it's fine." Shariz looked at Gu Zhongyu, but she didn't expect him to be able to resist coming in, so she gave her a high look.

"Then we'll see you tomorrow afternoon."

Of course, Gu Zhongyu is not imitating Liu Xiahui. Maybe he can get what he wants after entering, but this relationship will become a one-time thing. The goodwill and mystery accumulated by the two people when they first met will be gone. This is not his want.

Playing hard to get, even if he has a relationship with a big horse like Theron, he must be the dominant one, not the one being dominated.

As Theron watched his leaving back, he felt more and more interesting about this man.
