Entertainment: God-level director

The next morning, Lin Ran and Jessica Chastain and other co-stars flew to Chicago in the middle of the United States for promotion.

Lin Ran and others arrived at the hotel, rested for only ten minutes, and immediately accepted a group interview from the local media in a conference room that had been set up early.

“Lin,”Inception” took in $22 million at the box office on its first day, which is a very good box office result.

But many fans said that the plot is too profound and difficult to understand. What do you want to say?”

《A Chicago Tribune reporter first asked

“In fact, the plot is not difficult to understand, and there is no profound scientific reason. It is just that there are many details. You can understand it by watching the movie carefully or watching it a few times. Lin

Ran said with a smile.

“Lin, why have the styles of the recent two films”Interstellar” and”Inception” changed so much compared to your previous films”Superbody” and”The Wandering Earth”?”

Then a reporter asked about his doubts.

After hearing his question, other reporters also looked at Lin Ran curiously.

Even Jason Statham and Jessica Chastain also looked at Lin Ran with interest. Of course, they also discovered that Lin Ran’s style has changed drastically in his recent two films.

For a film director, he may make various types of films, but as long as it is the same director, his style may change with age and experience. , but it is impossible to directly become completely different.

Just like a mature writer, he often has a relatively fixed style of writing. If you write”The Three-Body Problem” today and”Dou Po” tomorrow, readers will also be suspicious.

For Lin Ran was not at all flustered by these people’s doubts, and said without blushing:

“Because I am deliberately trying to change to see if I can improve myself and see which style suits me better. I am still young and don’t want to fix myself in one style.”

After a pause, Lin Ran deliberately changed the subject and asked:”Do you prefer the style of”Interstellar” and”Inception”, or the style of the previous”Super Body”?”

“I love”Interstellar”, it’s an absolute masterpiece!”

“I still like the style of”Super Body”, it’s simple and straightforward, no brainer required, and Lucy is so cool”

“Kelly,”Superbody” is just a popcorn movie without any logic. You won’t gain anything after watching it, but”Interstellar” and”Inception” are different.”

“Jack, you need to know that we ordinary viewers watch movies for relaxation and entertainment. If you have to waste your brains checking all kinds of information to watch a movie, then it is better to watch a science and education film.”

“……”

Watching several reporters arguing on the spot, Lin Ran couldn’t help but smile to himself as he was still thinking about whether Lin Ran’s excuse just now was reasonable.

When they were about to argue till their faces turned red, Lin Ran interrupted them:”Okay, okay, everyone, it’s interview time now, please continue to ask questions.”

The scene finally quieted down, and a reporter asked:”Jessica, what are you doing? How did you feel about working with Lin for the first time?”

“Very good, Lin is a very good director, he has a genius-like imagination, and Lin is also very humorous. You can learn a lot by filming with him without feeling bored.……”

Taking the role – Chastain glanced at Lin Ran and then started praising her gushingly

“Jason, I heard that you resemble a Chinese actor. Have you met during the promotion in China?”

Then a reporter asked gossipingly.

“I have never met him, but I have seen his photos, and he looks very similar to me, like my twin brother. This world is really amazing.”

Jason Statham exclaimed

“So, Jason, you have a nickname in China called Guo Da, which is the name of the Chinese actor who looks very similar to you. Lin Ran said with a smile.

“Hahaha, speaking of nicknames, I also have a nickname in China. do you know? My Chinese fans call me Model Worker Sister, which means that I am as hard-working as a model worker.

Chinese fans are so funny, I love this nickname!”

When Lin Ran mentioned the nickname, Jessica Chastain immediately answered excitedly.

Obviously, she was very satisfied with her nickname as a model worker.

“And me? Lin, do I also have a nickname in China?”

Joaquin Phoenix asked curiously

《”Joker” was not released in China. He really didn’t understand it, so he didn’t know much about it.

“Of course, there are also Chinese fans who particularly like to use nicknames to express their love for European and American stars.

For example, Taylor Swift’s nickname is Luck, because when she hit the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart many times, she encountered very powerful opponents, so she finished second several times, which made her look particularly unlucky. Luck also sounds like the word”beautiful” in China. The word”美” means”美”, so Chinese fans call her Taylor Swift.

Jacques, your Chinese nickname is Brother Phoenix. The phoenix is the oldest mythical beast in China. There is an idiom called Phoenix Nirvana, which is used to describe a person who has been reborn after a long time and tribulations in the world. Change and become stronger, just like the experience of the clown in the movie”Joker”.”

Lin Ran gave a rough explanation.

Fortunately, the English skills he purchased through the system have oral expression skills comparable to those of native Americans, otherwise the explanation would not be clear.

“Wow, the meaning of this nickname is so fitting, I love this nickname.”

After hearing this, Joaquin Phoenix was also very satisfied.

After the reporters also recorded it, they asked again:”Lin, at the”Inception” press conference, you set two small goals. The first is the box office. To reach 1 billion US dollars; secondly, to get nominated for several Oscar awards. Are you sure you can achieve these two small goals now?”

“Of course! Lin

Ran said without hesitation.

Just kidding, don’t say you are really confident about it. Even if you have a drum in your heart, you must definitely say it.

Otherwise, in order to gain attention, these media will hype him as a director for”Inception” every minute.”We all lost confidence and other topics.

Then the reporters kept asking various questions, and it took half an hour to end the interview.

It was already noon, and Lin Ran and the others went back to their respective places after having lunch in the hotel. Rest in the room. After three o’clock in the afternoon, they will start a new road show promotion.
