China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

Chapter 423 If You Like Love...

To be honest, "Painted Skin 2" is a mediocre commercial blockbuster.

If we talk about how much of a shock it caused to the industry, it is unlikely to be reflected much at the premiere.

But when Wuershan went on stage for an interview after the movie.

The audience at the scene began to shout Guan Ling's name.

Guan Ling quickly responded to the crowd's call and stood in front of the stage.

"Hello everyone, I'm Guan Ling."

Picking up the microphone, Guan Ling gestured to Wuershan a little embarrassedly, and then said,
"First of all, I want to thank everyone for coming to watch the movie. As you all know, I once made a promise to train more than ten directors to join the 2 million yuan club. Now the number has not reached the target, so I hope everyone will support the box office of Painted Skin .

Actually, I don’t really want to steal the spotlight. The director of Painted Skin 2 is Wuershan, not me.

But I can't let everyone down.

However, due to time constraints, I am afraid I can only answer a few questions. So please don't be offended if you are not selected."

"Choose me, choose me!"

After these words were spoken, screams were heard from both the media area and the audience area.

They were eager to get the opportunity to interview Guan Ling, the Oscar winner for Best Director.

Guan Ling first pointed at a media person at random.

"Director Guan, just half a month ago, you won the first Oscar for Best Director for a Chinese filmmaker in Hollywood. Could you please share how you felt about receiving the most nominations at this year's Oscars, winning three awards, and winning the Best Director Oscar?"

"I didn't really feel anything. I was very calm when I won the award. In fact, when I was nominated at the awards ceremony, I had some expectations because of the Golden Globe Awards. But when the Oscar for Best Director was presented, I was stunned. I didn't expect it to be me, and I didn't expect that only I would be chosen. Before returning home, Nolan threatened me that I had to write a script for him."

"Do you think your winning the Oscar for Best Director has anything to do with the fact that you are Chinese?"

The reporter's words startled Guan Ling and many people at the scene.

Everyone also looked at Guan Ling, wanting to know how Guan Ling would answer.

Guan Ling hesitated for a moment, then he raised the microphone and said,
"Why do you think that an American film festival award is related to the fact that the director is Asian? I admit that my Chinese identity has given me a sufficient cultural background, and my understanding of American culture also allows me to form a cultural fusion of the two, which is my advantage. But in my opinion, winning the award has nothing to do with my being Chinese. Next question."

Guan Ling felt that this reporter had some mental problems and quickly changed the subject.

The second reporter was even more shocked.

"Director Guan, you have been in Hollywood for so long, and you have always been around two actresses, Fan Bingbing and Liu Yifei. Which of them do you think is the prettiest?"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the cameras were pointed at Guan Ling.

Listen to some gossip!

The media at the scene all pricked up their ears for this news, waiting for Guan Ling's response.

Among the current big directors in the industry, not many are suspected to be single, and Guan Ling is one of the best among them, a great bachelor.

In fact, many media outlets have long wanted to dig deeper into Guan Ling’s love life.

They even asked the paparazzi they worked with.

Female stars in the industry know that Guan Ling is their dream partner.

But Guan Ling was very cautious, and some paparazzi mostly kept silent about any news about Guan Ling.

After these words were spoken, Fan Bingbing, who was at the scene, was stunned at first.

She didn't expect someone to ask her if she was pretty, and she didn't expect the person asking the question would be Guan Ling.

"Isn't this just embarrassing myself?"

Fan Bingbing said to herself that she knew Guan Ling had always had special feelings for Liu Yifei and even brought her home.

But she would look at Guan Ling from time to time, expecting to get the answer from Guan Ling.

Guan Ling smiled bitterly, his eyes sharp.

"Can you please talk more about movies next time when you ask questions?"

Then he answered the question just now.

"I think these two people are beautiful in their own ways. One is beautiful in her wealth and grandeur, and the other is beautiful in her ethereal beauty. As for which one is the most beautiful, I am face-blind, which means I can't tell who is beautiful and who is not."

As soon as this was said, there was a burst of laughter at the scene. "Is it okay to be face-blind?!" After Director Guan said this, the reporter was stunned.

"We set a trap for Director Guan, but Director Guan didn't fall for it at all!"

"How can someone with prosopagnosia tell the difference between one person being rich and noble and the other being fairy-like? Director Guan is really good at fooling people!"

"You know what? There are many criteria for prosopagnosia. Some people can see your face, but forget it when they turn their heads. This is also a type of prosopagnosia."

There was a doctor among the movie fans, and he was still giving science lectures at this time.

There was a lot of whispering below.

Everyone gave thumbs up to Director Guan’s answer.

After years of immersion in the entertainment industry, Director Guan has indeed reached perfection.

In just a few words, the reporter was dumbfounded. I'm afraid it's numb at this time.

……

“It’s time.”

Yang Mi looked up at Guan Ling from below.
"This Shura Field will happen sooner or later."

Zhou Xun heard Yang Mi's whispers. She probably guessed what Yang Mi was saying, but she didn't agree.

Although most media outlets have no evidence and paparazzi have not revealed any information, there are still some rumors within the actor circle.

Perhaps there is some fleeting romance between Director Guan and every actress she has promoted.

Zhou Xun was the first to object to this.

Because she knew very well that she had never done that, so the rumors were naturally false.

"Director Guan is an upright person."

Zhou Xun has always thought so.

"He doesn't seem interested in women."

Zhou Xun said in his heart.

……

Soon, Guan Ling called a third person, who was a movie fan. She jumped up and down, excited about being chosen.

"Director Guan, I like romantic movies the most."

The fan picked up the microphone, and his voice came out before he even stood up.

"In Painted Skin 2, I saw the moving tragedy. Under the beautiful pictures and excellent texture, when I finished watching the movie, I felt very uncomfortable, as if I couldn't breathe in or out. Especially after that night of passion, I felt that the emotion that this movie wanted to express was that men are animals that look at faces.

Princess Jing, in order to stay with Huo Xin and stay with him forever,
He chose to exchange his heart for skin, to live in eternal cold, to eat the heart and paint the skin, and he was willing to do so.

I can understand the deep affection that this movie wants to convey, but I really don't like Princess Jing's love that sacrifices herself for her own sake.

Director Guan, since your debut, you have never been involved in the filming of a love movie. If possible, will you shoot a love movie in the future? "

the fan asked excitedly.

Guan Ling hesitated: "I admit that the love in Painted Skin 2 is very extreme. Love is something that mostly happens in simple and ordinary moments. But if you like love, it's not that I can't shoot it..."

"Can you act in one yourself? Director Guan, if you don't act, we can't call you husband!" The fan was still shouting.

Guan Ling was stunned.

He smiled and said, "I'll think about it, but it's not impossible."

There was an uproar at the scene.

Yang Mi narrowed her eyes sharply below, "What if he is your husband?"

"That……"

"Where's my husband?"
