Chapter 95 16 Accidents

The celebration banquet ended successfully.

Wang Shu went to the bathroom before leaving, and when he came out, he happened to meet Qin Hailu who was washing his hands in the sink.

"What a coincidence?" Wang Shu asked casually when he saw Qin Hailu.

After hearing this, Qin Hailu looked at Wang Shu with a pretense of suspicion, and asked quietly: "Director Wang, are you following me on purpose?"

Wang Shu rolled his eyes and responded by not responding.

When Qin Hailu saw this, the smile on his face became even bigger.

Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something, turned her head to look at Wang Shu, and asked, "Director Wang, I just heard you tell Director Han that after filming "The Legend of Zhen Huan", you will make another art film?"

Wang Shu and Qin Hailu have become good friends through their cooperation in "The Tuner", so he responded without concealment: "I have this plan."

After hearing this, Qin Hailu said in surprise: "I thought Director Wang would take a break after filming "The Legend of Zhen Huan"? I didn't expect that the next step of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" has been arranged before the filming of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" has started."

If she remembers correctly, Wang Shu filmed his first film "Buried Alive" in 2004, then the TV series "My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox", then "The Tuner", and the upcoming "The Tuner". "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

In just one or two years, three works have been produced and one TV series is about to be produced.

And now, before the production of the drama "Yangshi" has even started, they have already planned their actions after filming "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

Looking at the mainland entertainment industry, there are almost no directors who work non-stop like this.

Like Chen Kaige, Feng Xiaogang, Zhang Yimou and others, who doesn't film one movie a year or one movie every few years?
  How can he be like Wang Shu, who is either filming or on the way to film?
  Although Wang Jin from Hong Kong Island also had a record of filming three dramas in one year last year, he was a director from Hong Kong Island.

Can mainland directors be the same as those from Hong Kong in this aspect?

When Wang Shu heard this, he smiled and said, "I just have an idea now. I'm not sure whether I will take action later."

"Is that so?" Qin Hailu pretended to be surprised, and then asked curiously: "What kind of literary film does Director Wang want to make?"

"Currently we only have a preliminary idea and it has not been confirmed yet. We will not know until later." Wang Shu said with a smile.

Qin Hailu straightened his clothes, followed Wang Shu's footsteps and walked out. He asked with a smile: "What do you think of me, Director Wang?"

"What's going on?" Wang Shu looked back at Qin Hailu and asked, pretending not to understand.

Seeing this, Qin Hailu pursed her lips and rolled her eyes and glared at Wang Shu. She also knew that Wang Shu was a stupid young man who was "ignorant of worldly affairs", so she thought that Wang Shu really didn't understand, so she had to go into more detail. Then he said, "Director Wang's artistic film!"

Considering that time was tight and she was worried that Wang Shu still wouldn't understand, she said it quite bluntly this time, "Director Wang, doesn't he have the idea of ​​making a literary film?"

"Now, standing next to you is an actress who has made many literary films."

"How about it?"

"Don't you think about me when you're filming?"

After Wang Shu heard this, he stopped and turned around to look at Qin Hailu from head to toe with a scrutinizing gaze.

Qin Hailu stood still and looked at Wang Shu's eyes. He seemed to feel a trace of dissatisfaction in it, and suddenly his heart was filled with anger and he puffed up his chest.

Wang Shu took a quick look and found it was very ordinary.

He understands people and the world, and then said with a smile: "We will wait until the script is completed. If the role is suitable, Sister Hailu will be found to play it. If not, there is nothing we can do."

Qin Hailu guessed that Wang Shu would say this. Based on her understanding of Wang Shu, Wang Shu would basically not include other things in the script casting, but would choose whoever he thought was suitable.

She took the initiative to mention it this time because she wanted to gain a foothold with Wang Shu first. When the casting time came, Wang Shu would naturally consider her.

So, he looked at Wang Shu happily and said jokingly: "Can you use the back door?"

"Back door?" After hearing this, Wang Shu looked at Qin Hailu in surprise and asked doubtfully: "Sister Hailu wants to use the back door?"

"Can't you?" Qin Hailu pouted, as if he was quite dissatisfied with Wang Shu's tone.

"Haha." Wang Shu smiled and said, "I'm afraid I'm not strong enough and won't be able to walk."

Although Wang Shu's words were brief, Qin Hailu could understand them instantly.

What this means is that Wang Shu is stating that his abilities are limited and that he has to go through the back door to find someone who does not meet the requirements of the role. For a film that wants to compete for awards, the gain outweighs the loss.

"How does Director Wang know that he is not tough enough?" Qin Hailu blinked, as if to say, Director Wang can do it, you can definitely do it, and you can definitely give her a back door.

"." When Wang Shu heard this, he couldn't hold himself any longer. Just as he was about to answer, he met Jiang Wenli and others, so he had to shut his mouth and not continue the topic.

After another polite flattery, Wang Shu returned home.

Jiang Wenli returned home and saw that the lights were still on in the study. She took off her warm coat and hung it up, then walked to the study to take a look and exclaimed: "What? I saw a guy who won an award in Berlin with you and is younger than you." The movie made by a director who is decades old has a box office of over 100 million, but you can’t accept it and can’t sleep?”

Gu Changwei glanced sideways at Jiang Wenli and remained silent without replying.

Gu Changwei was invited to the "Tuner" celebration party.

However, Gu Changwei did not go.

Jiang Wenli saw that Gu Changwei didn't say anything, and then said, "Wang Shu will probably take "The Tuner" to Cannes."

"What do you mean?" Gu Changwei heard something in Jiang Wenli's words and asked sideways.

Based on his understanding of Jiang Wenli, his sudden remarks after attending the celebration banquet definitely had another meaning.

Jiang Wenli was silent for a while, then looked up at Gu Changwei and said sadly: "It will be difficult to have the opportunity to go to the top three universities in Europe in the future..."

"So, I want to try it."

In the movie "The Tuner", the heroine is not the little girl played by Qin Hailu who has a spark with the blind pianist, but the villain and poisonous woman played by Jiang Wenli.

After hearing this, Gu Changwei looked at Jiang Wenli in surprise and asked doubtfully: "Why do you have such an idea?"

To be honest, he was unwilling in his heart.

Because, he won the Berlin Film Festival Jury Prize.

With this award, his status in the industry and at home is unquestionable.

However, if Jiang Wenli wins the Best Actress Award at Cannes, with this honor on her side, her status will definitely rise after returning to China.

When
  "Why do you want to win awards at the top three universities in Europe?" Jiang Wenli did not answer this question, but asked instead.

She knew in her heart that if "The Tuner" was really selected for the Cannes International Film Festival, it would definitely be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

If you miss it, you may never have such good luck in your life.

So, she didn't want to miss it.

When Gu Changwei heard this, he knew that Jiang Wenli had already made a decision.

In this case, even if he refused, it would have no effect, so he responded in a deep voice: "If "The Tuner" goes to Cannes, then it's up to you."

Jiang Wenli nodded and turned to the bathroom to wash up.

Deep down in her heart, she had already made a plan.

As soon as "The Tuner" goes to Cannes, public relations start.

Even if she doesn't win the Cannes Best Actress Award, she can still be nominated. online.

The discussion about "The Tuner" is getting more and more intense.

Some viewers after watching the movie even posted online detailing the various twists and turns in "The Tuner".

A netizen with the ID name (I am your horse) published a post about "The Tuner" on the Tianya Forum.

After this post was posted, it quickly aroused heated discussions among many people.

Title: "Counting 16 accidents and twists in the movie "The Tuner"."

Content: "The first accident: the male protagonist who was originally blind suddenly behaved abnormally and behaved like a normal person. It turned out that he was pretending to be blind."

"The second accident: The foreshadowing was fast-paced, like a romance movie, but when the hero went to the heroine's home to play, corpses suddenly appeared."

"The third accident: There was nothing strange when playing. It seemed that the murderer had gone away. When the heroine helped the hero into the bathroom, the murderer was still there and did not leave."

"The fourth accident: The male protagonist went to report the murder. When he was about to describe the murder, he accidentally discovered that the police chief in charge of the case was the murderer at the time."

"The fifth accident: The male protagonist went to the deceased's house again and wanted to tell the truth to the deceased's daughter (the female protagonist was her stepmother), but unexpectedly saw the female protagonist killing the old neighbor and silencing her."

"The sixth accident: The heroine went to the hero's house to test whether he was really blind. Just when the audience thought he passed the test, the hero was accidentally poisoned."

"The 7th accident: It's no surprise that the male protagonist didn't die. What's surprising is that he really became blind, and he was framed by the female protagonist as a scumbag, causing his girlfriend to leave."

"The 8th accident: The heroine didn't seem to want the hero to die, but at this time, the police chief went to assassinate the hero, and the hero escaped again."

"The 9th accident: The driver and the woman who rescued the hero seemed to be good people. Unexpectedly, they left the wolf's den and entered the tiger's den again. The driver and the doctor wanted to remove the hero's kidney and sell it."

"The 10th accident: Because the male protagonist had seen the two of them before, in a critical moment, he called out the god tattoo on the woman's body, and the danger was immediately averted."

"The 11th accident: The male protagonist teamed up with the driver and the woman to kidnap the female protagonist. However, driven by profit, the driver and the woman did not trust the male protagonist, so they still controlled her."

"The 12th surprise: The male protagonist and the female protagonist, who had a deep hatred for each other, suddenly united their front, and then the alliance quickly fell apart. In the end, the male protagonist and the doctor took control of the female protagonist."

"The 13th accident: The doctor was accidentally killed by the heroine, who took control of the car."

"The 15th accident: After the heroine let the hero go, she suddenly wanted to kill him again."

"The 16th accident: A hunter was chasing a rabbit and accidentally killed the heroine, but the hero survived."

"Starting from the 13th accident, everything that follows is what the male protagonist confided to his ex-girlfriend in London."

"However, at the last second of the ending, it was unexpectedly revealed that the male protagonist is not blind after all!"

"What does this mean?"

"It means that the female protagonist has been killed and he obtained her corneas. So the accidents starting from the 13th accident were all fabricated by the male protagonist!"

"There are no hunters chasing rabbits at all. In the story made up by the male protagonist, he is the rabbit that cannot die, the rabbit that looks blind but is actually cruel and bright-eyed!"

"Finally, I also saw someone saying that there were more than 50 surprises and twists in the movie "The Tuner."

"I'm sorry, because I just watched the movie once in the cinema, and so far I only found these surprises and twists."

"If you want to prove whether there are really more than 50 places, you need to go to the cinema and watch the movie many times to find the answer."

This post caused a lot of heated discussion on the Internet.

Some netizens even forwarded it to other forums and post bars.

Netizens who were still on the fence and had not entered the cinema could no longer hold back after seeing these posts.

Moreover, as more and more people have watched the movie, the various twists and turns in "The Tuner" are topical to a certain extent, causing many people to discuss it before and after tea in real life.

It seems that it has become a topic of conversation for many people.

Therefore, the box office trend of "The Tuner", which had already started to decline, has stabilized slightly with this momentum.

On the eighth day of release, the box office was 1103 million.

Day 9, 986W.

Day 10, 719W.

2 month 9 day.

When Wang Shu saw at the company that the box office of "The Tuner" was only over 7 million yesterday, he already understood that the movie was entering its second half.

From now on, it will only get lower and lower until it is released.

And on this day, the lie about him being selected for the Berlin Film Festival with "The Tuner" was completely exposed.

For a time, it sparked heated discussions on the Internet.

The box office of "The Tuner" was more or less affected.

But by this time, it wasn't very important anymore.

Even if it had an impact, it would only be a matter of missing a few million in box office.

For a movie that has already exceeded 100 million, this is not a big deal.

……

On February 2006, 2, the 9th Berlin International Film Festival kicked off.

At this Berlin Film Festival, British actress Charlotte Rampling serves as the chairman of the jury for the main competition unit.

As for the jury members, there is only one East Asian movie star, actress Lee Young-ae from South Korea, who is the eldest sister who starred in "Dae Jang Geum".

The drama "Dae Jang Geum" has created a ratings miracle both in South Korea and in mainland China.

On this day, Director Chen became stubborn.

Because "The Promise" directed by him will have its grand European premiere today at the Berlinale Palace, the main venue of the Berlin Film Festival.

Of course, we do not participate in the Golden Bear and Silver Bear Awards.

Chen Hong originally set out with Chen Kaige, but when they were in Paris, France, she did not come because she had to take care of two children.

Therefore, at the premiere of "The Promise" in Berlin, only Director Chen of the couple was present.

When Wang Shu saw the news, he wanted to criticize Chen Hong.

Director Chen's "The Promise" held a grand European premiere in Berlin for such a big event. As Director Chen's wife and one of the leading actors in the film, you didn't even accompany Director Chen there!

But to play with the children in Paris?

For such a big thing, couldn't we leave the child in the care of relatives for a few days before coming, and just come with Director Chen?

Ok?
