China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

Chapter 602: Deng Chao: The lost lover? Is this a movie or is it real?

That night.

Venice Film Festival is in turmoil.
"Perfect Strangers", a low-budget movie that already attracted extremely high traffic, caused a huge sensation.

The program score for this film was released in Venice that night, and the high score of 3.8 brought expectations to countless Guan Ling audiences at home and abroad.

The Venice program scored a perfect 5 points.

Although the score of "Perfect Stranger" does not seem very high, in fact, this score is tied for first place with "Wild Tales" and "The Master".

Speaking of which, the plot of the movie "The Master" probably revolves around the mental control of cult leaders and believers, alluding to the social power structure and individual loss.

"Pietà" by Korean director Kim Ki-duk, who won the Golden Lion Award in his previous life, is a suspenseful story about mother and son, focusing on twisted family affection and revenge, and exploring the redemption of human nature with extreme violent aesthetics. It only scored 3.5 points in the program book.

Takeshi Kitano's "Outrageous 2" only received a 2.4-point rating in the program book.

Previously, the media unanimously believed that the film "To the Wonderland" by American director Terrence, which might be the biggest competitor, only received a program score of 2.5 points.

So in fact, "Wild Tales" and "Perfect Stranger" instantly caused a sensation in the entire Venice Film Festival on the day of their premiere.

The domestic media reports instantly ignited the domestic entertainment industry.

"Wild Tales and Perfect Stranger both received high scores in the Venice program book. The movie Gone Girl will be released today. Can Zhang Ziyi continue to make waves in Venice? Let's wait and see!"

"Perfect Strangers" received extremely high reviews, and the two directors Guan Ling and Ning Hao swept across Europe with their power."

"The extraordinary emotional and ethical drama by Chen Kun, Deng Chao, Zhou Xun and others directly touches everyone's heart."

All kinds of news were overwhelming, like a depth bomb dropped on the mainland entertainment circle.

Many people speculate that these two dramas may indeed be able to bring something back.

Although the score in the program book has little to do with whether or not you win an award, as what matters is the judges' vote, it still has some reference value.

At least at the three major European film festivals, the scores were extremely low, but there were only a handful of films that won the final awards.

So it’s no wonder people might have higher expectations.

Especially, "Perfect Strangers" is known in Italy as a reality pushed to the extreme. It has caused many couples in Italy to fight. When the news spread to China, it also left many people looking at each other in bewilderment.

"You can watch this movie, but you must not watch it with your partner."

Many people feel like they are itching inside. Although they are very annoyed, they are convinced.

Many domestic directors don’t dare to have too many ideas.

When facing media interviews, it is almost the same template.

"Of course we are looking forward to it. If we can win it, it will be good for Chinese-language films."

The media simply can't make any waves out of these domestic directors.

In the current situation, no one would offend Guan Ling.

Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Feng Xiaogang, and Jiang Wen all praised him and no one scolded him.

No one dares to raise the flag. What if they get slapped in the face?
After all, Guan Ling is best at slapping people in the face.

People like Lu Chuan have long lost their credibility.

Ask him to evaluate Guan Ling.

Not to mention Lu Chuan, even the interviewing media can be ruined by netizens.

Many media outlets suddenly discovered that life is not worth living.

No traffic, no money.

They say entertainment is death.

This can't be a cause for concern.
We can only wait quietly for news of the final result.

But some unofficial tabloids still started to make up stories.

"The things about Guan Ling and Zhang Ziyi!"

"Unveiling Jingtian's profound background."

"The real reason behind Wan Qian's sudden ascension?"

Various news headlines took advantage of the popularity of Venice and specifically started from an emotional perspective, which also attracted a lot of attention.

Many netizens don’t believe it.

People say the entertainment industry is chaotic, but is it really that chaotic?!

Who believes it?
Many netizens still don’t realize how colorful Director Guan’s life is.

……

In Venice, Deng Chao suddenly opened his eyes and saw that there was no one around.

"Where's Sun Li?"

He knew that Zhang Ziyi's film "The Vanishing Lover" would be shown today, but he didn't expect that this incident would actually happen to him.

Lover disappeared?
Sun Li disappeared?
Deng Chao took a few seconds to react, and his face suddenly became serious.

He remembered the way he looked at Sun Li when they were watching the movie, and also remembered Sun Li's resentment at that time.

Suddenly, an idea popped into his mind.

"Sun Li wouldn't go to find Director Guan, would she?"

"She's going to knit me a hat to protect me from the summer sun?"

Deng Chao suddenly felt a little flustered.

At this moment, what he was thinking about was not the hurt caused by his cheating, but the inexplicable anger.

"I admit that I did these things, and I also admit that I was caught, but those were just mistakes I made, and I have corrected them. Why did you do this to me?"

He was still aggrieved.

Because he guessed it, guessed the possible scenario.

In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, someone shouted to Sun Li in a low voice.

"Don't look back~"

This scene,

It’s so explosive!

Deng Chao shuddered all over just thinking about it.

The most important thing is that they are all men.

Deng Chao understands it very well.

In the crew, Wan Qian has some relationship with Director Guan. Qin Hao was obviously much more restrained when acting with him.

Doesn't he understand?

They understand so well!
Just can't say.

No one is stupid.

Chen Kun and Zhou Xun were laughing and joking in the crew, which made it obvious that everything was fine.

Director Guan at least didn’t watch the tour last week.

Probably, he won’t be attracted to Sun Li either.

But what if.

Just thinking about it, Deng Chao felt his heart ache, and it was the kind that he couldn't accept.

but,
He actually found that he didn't have the courage to go out and look for someone.

Because he is afraid.

If the scene in his mind came true, he didn't even know what to do?
Give yourself a lecture?
Are you kidding? Director Guan also said he wanted to find me to film a movie?

And if this matter was true, Deng Chao knew that it was most likely Sun Li who took the initiative to do it.

Rather than guiding,

People are passive.

If the scene in my mind was fake, that would be the best, but why did Sun Li disappear in the middle of the night?
This doesn't make sense.

The night was dark.

Deng Chao thought about it for a long time and hesitated for a long time, but in the end he didn't have the courage to take the step of going out to find someone. He even picked up his phone and wanted to send a message to Sun Li, but he was afraid that Sun Li would find out that he was awake.

This text message has not been sent out.

Sending it out proves that he has discovered it.

Once the lid is opened, it won't close.

He was in a dilemma. Like Schrödinger's cat, before the lid was opened, it was not known whether the cat was dead or alive.

After he pushed open the door and went out to look for someone, he didn't know what would happen next. He didn't know whether Sun Li really went to Director Guan or not.

However, he could not afford the consequences of going there, and he had no means of countering it.

Thinking about this.

More than an hour passed quietly.

The door opened.

Sun Li came in swaying by herself, lay down on the bed and began to rest.

She didn't care whether Deng Chao woke up or not. It seemed that whether he woke up or not had nothing to do with her.

Deng Chao actually hadn't fallen asleep yet, but the first second Sun Li came in, Deng Chao pretended to snore.

Then he turned his body to the side, stopped the snoring, and pretended that he was still sleeping.

Only in this way can he live his life.

If the matter gets out of hand, the affair between him and Huo Siyan will be exposed, and his film and television career will be ruined.

But he had no evidence on Sun Li's side.

Even if we find evidence, what can we do?
Even if he really lifted the lid to take revenge or express dissatisfaction, the targets of his revenge would only be his own people.

There’s nothing we can do about Director Guan.

Deng Chao was of course well aware of these things. How could he let Director Guan get into trouble because of some gossip?

As long as Director Guan doesn't commit any principled issues, the most he can do is have a drink and laugh it off.

He has big capital and is a big boss, so he can live a comfortable life behind the scenes.

And there's not even any evidence. Who would believe such empty talk?

Deng Chao was confused.

"Ah~"

He sighed in his heart.

I have no choice.

Although he closed his eyes, his mind was spinning as he thought about how to resolve this situation.

If Sun Li took the initiative to do these things, he would have no idea what to do.

Did you pretend to sleep this time?
What about next time?
Pretend to sleep next time?
Or should I just take two artistic photos of them in front of them?
Deng Chao was confused.

What about next time?

What if the next time it’s not with Director Guan?
Do I want to fight to the death with Sun Liyu?
Deng Chao fell into deep confusion.

That night, outsiders were in an uproar over the movie "Perfect Strangers".

And Deng Chao suddenly felt the loving wife by his side.

I have become a perfect stranger whom I don't know...

That's it.

That's it.

Deng Chao was completely speechless.

"It's better not to come to Venice!"

……

2012 9 Month 6 Day.

"Gone Girl" has finally officially premiered in Venice. At the same time, the domestic release dates for "Wild Tales" and "Perfect Stranger" have also been confirmed.

"Perfect Strangers" will be released in mainland China on September 9.

"Wild Tales" chose a relatively unpopular schedule, and its release on October 10 can be considered a continuation.

Speaking of which, there are quite a few movies to be released in September and October, including "White Deer Plain", "Looper", and the first and second parts of "Tai Chi".

Previously, the art film "Double Exposure", in which Fan Bingbing and Li Yu collaborated again, was shelved for a while and was finally released.

Although Zhang Ziyi's "Vanishing Lover" cannot be released in mainland China, there will be a "Dangerous Liaisons" co-starring with Zhang Baizhi and Jang Dong-gun in China, but it didn't make much of a splash.

The most noteworthy movie in October is "Cold War".

However, when the time for Guan Ling's two plays was set.

The ones who were completely panicking were the ones behind, and many producers were sweating coldly.

But these are far less popular than "Gone Girl".

Zhang Ziyi was wearing a white suit and smiling.

"This movie of mine will help me win the Best Actress award this year."

At the press conference, she loudly expressed her wishes and aspirations.

Countless media at the scene exclaimed in amazement.

Today, Zhang Ziyi not only wears a domineering and flamboyant outfit, attracting people's attention,
And he speaks even more recklessly.

In one go, she attracted all the popularity of many female stars.

Countless people were dumbfounded.

"I also want to become like this in the future." Jingtian said softly as he looked at Zhang Ziyi who was full of vigor and vitality on the stage.

Guan Ling glanced at Zhang Ziyi, but he hadn't finished speaking yet.

"I am very grateful to Director Guan for tailoring this script for me. This movie will definitely shock everyone present here later."

"I must admit that this is the most elusive role I have ever taken on. She is mysterious and handsome, and she plays with marriage in the palm of her hand. When she disappears, the male protagonist played by Zach is criticized by thousands of people. When she comes back, the male protagonist played by Zach is in the abyss..."

Zhang Ziyi slowly talked about his understanding of the role.

In fact, the plot of "Gone Girl" is not complicated.
On the morning of their fifth wedding anniversary, Nick came to his sister's bar and cursed and complained about his wife Amy, with whom he had once been in love, and his marriage that had no hope at all.

When he returned home, he found traces of violence in the living room, but his wife was nowhere to be seen.

All the clues left at the scene seemed to indicate that this was not an ordinary missing person case, but rather a murder caused by the breakup of a couple's relationship.

Amy's disappearance quickly became known nationwide through media hype and unwarranted speculation, and the misbehaving Nick was pushed to the forefront.

But all this was set up by Zhang Ziyi, the mastermind behind the scenes.

The sound continues.

"My character Amy is covered in blood like Carrie.

He rose from the ashes as a victor and completed the creation of a new false personality;
And I believe that this character may make everyone here feel deep malice.

I must admit that I played a twisted bitch in the movie. I set a trap for my husband, told him that we would be tied together for the rest of our lives, and told him: Even if we tortured and hurt each other, that's what marriage is.

Perhaps you can all see the evil and negative energy in your hearts.

But every one of you must cheer for me."

Zhang Ziyi's voice was calm but it brought silence to the entire place.

People suddenly discovered that
Guan Ling actually has marriages in all three of her movies.

The final story of Wild Tales is about marital disputes and family gossip.

Perfect Strangers is a complete film about marriage and human nature.

Now the same is true for Vanishing Lover. And from what Zhang Ziyi said, it seems that the marriage in this movie is even more perverted?!
"Director Guan is getting married, right? Why are you so emotional?"

Many viewers joked.

But below, Deng Chao, Sun Li and others seemed to be thinking about something.

After what happened yesterday, neither of them could sleep at all that night.

Soon, the movie was aired.

Many people at the scene fell into extreme silence.

David Fincher's directing ability is superb. Whether it is the rhythm or the soundtrack, almost every frame strikes the audience's hearts.

And those plots, just as Zhang Ziyi said, struck hard at everyone's heart.

When the lover is gone, everyone points fingers at him. When the lover comes back, it is like a bottomless abyss. Marriage is like a gorgeous robe, which is the face. But it is crawling with lice, which is the inside.

When the movie ended, the whole audience was speechless!! (End of this chapter)
