Chapter 597 Hush

"Quantum mechanics? Parallel universe?" Chen Hong was surprised. She happened to know a little about these things.

Compared with Sun Li, Liu Yan and others, Chen Hong is at least a producer. She has come into contact with many scripts and is familiar with European and American science fiction films.

In the original timeline, Chen Kaige was able to praise "Interstellar" in public, which clearly showed that he also watched science fiction movies.

It's just that he couldn't get a good script and didn't have the ability to shoot it.

"Yes," Wang Shu responded as he reached his hand along the bottom of his shirt.

But even if you put your hand in, what you hold is a "mask".

Chen Hong bit her lip and asked with surprise in her eyes: "Where did you learn all this?"

“The Time Traveler is about time travel to change the future, The Grim Reaper is about time loops, and The Night the Comet Came is about parallel universes.”

After the release of "The Night the Comet Came" for review, many people knew the name of the movie, including Chen Hong.

"Watch more and learn more." Wang Shu began to tell a story again, "I've said before that Hollywood is right there, watch more and learn more."

Chen Hong couldn't help but joked, "No wonder your movies are Hollywood-style. It turns out you're plagiarizing Hollywood movies."

"Can what happens between filmmakers be called plagiarism? I just absorb the essence of Hollywood and make it my own." Wang Shu continued with a smile, "For example, among my films, which one is plagiarized?"

“Only the setting is similar to some Hollywood movies, the story is completely original.”

Chen Hong understood that the sentence "Can things between filmmakers be called plagiarism?" was a joke, and she snorted with her lips curled up: "You talk too much, and you are right."

"Haha." Wang Shu laughed when he heard that and changed the subject by asking, "I heard that you are preparing a movie now?"

Although Chen Kaige is the director, Chen Hong is the producer, so there is nothing wrong with saying that Chen Hong is preparing the film.

"Yeah!" Chen Hong responded.

Wang Shu rubbed his "mask" and asked with pretended concern: "Won't it be very busy next time?"

"Yes, I will be busy." Chen Hong bit her lip and responded in a strange voice.

"You said I was busy before, but now you are going to be busy too?" Wang Shu pretended to blame.

This was a look and attitude of concern, and Chen Hong could hear and see it.

"I took a long break before I got busy again. Unlike you, you are always busy." Chen Hong continued in a biting voice.

Wang Shu held Chen Hong in his arms and sat on the sofa. He sat on the sofa and Chen Hong sat on his lap. He reached out and touched Chen Hong's face.

There are wrinkles on Chen Hong's face, which are the traces of time.

"You are not short of money, so it is better not to be busy."

When Chen Hong heard this, a strong sense of inferiority suddenly emerged in her heart.

This inferiority complex does not come from money, but from lack of confidence in one's appearance.

Many people of the same age look younger and have smoother skin.

And she
The reason for this is that they were too busy cleaning up the mess for producer Chen Kaige.

Therefore, Wang Shu’s words reminded her of the traces of time left behind by being busy.

On the other hand, Wang Shu is sunny, handsome, and young, and he is also a talented and internationally renowned Oscar-winning director.

In contrast, a sense of inferiority arises in my heart.

It was precisely because of this inferiority complex that even though Wang Shu held the "mask" with a little force, she did not resist, but endured it silently.

As long as one is not selfish, the relationship between men and women is mutual.

What Wang Shu did made Chen Hong feel warm, and Chen Hong would also give to Wang Shu.

And if you feel inferior, you will put in even more effort.

For example, silently enduring is a manifestation of dedication.

Because, this is to please the other person.

"Where is there a lack of money?" Chen Hong said in a low voice, "A whole family needs money. If we don't work, our living standards will drop several notches."

The movies made by Director Chen Da are either flops, break even, or make a small profit, but he loves to invest in them.

Every time I make a movie, I will invest in it.

It is precisely because of this that Chen Hong has continued to serve as a producer.

There are risks in participating in the investment, so you need to be cautious when spending money.

The movies don't make money, which means that Director Chen can't get his investment back. If it weren't for the director's salary, the signing fee for the director's intention to cooperate, and other investments, the whole family would not be able to sustain this.

Even if you hold on, it will be like robbing Peter to pay Paul.

Wang Shu knew all this, and then he said, "I just feel sorry for you."

"I know." Chen Hong also reached out and touched Wang Shu's face, and said softly, "If Director Chen could be as capable as you, I wouldn't have to worry so much."

Wang Shu is an upright person. He has never said anything bad about Director Chen. "Director Chen is very capable. I have always believed that he is very capable."

Chen Hong rolled her eyes at him in reproach and snorted, "You only know how to say good things about him."

"Did you know he was at home?"

Having said this, he suddenly stopped.

She subconsciously wanted to tell him about how Director Chen belittled and looked down on Wang Shu at home, but when she got to her lips she realized it wouldn't be a good idea to say it, so she took it back.

When Wang Shu heard this, even if Chen Hong didn't say it directly, he knew it clearly in his heart.

As a second-generation descendant of a noble military compound, Director Chen was looked down upon even by Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang, let alone his unconventional ways.

This contempt does not mean contempt for the abilities of Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang, but contempt for their backgrounds.

Then he saw through it but didn't say anything, pretending to be puzzled and asked, "What is Director Chen doing at home?"

"Nothing." Chen Hong didn't want to say more on this topic, and then praised Wang Shu and said, "Anyway, you have a good heart."

She really believed that.

Director Chen belittled Wang Shu at home and said many unpleasant and strange things to him.

On the other hand, Wang Shu not only did not say anything weird about Director Chen, but also praised him in various ways, treating him like a senior and always showing respect to him.

She also knew that Wang Shu respected Director Chen and that her self-esteem was not trampled upon.

This is a very complicated emotion.

Logically speaking, since Chen Hong and Wang Shu have been like this, she shouldn't mind Wang Shu belittling Director Chen.

However, this is not the case.

If Wang Shu belittled Director Chen, he would be belittling her.

Although she won't say it, she will feel that her self-esteem is trampled upon, which will make her feel uncomfortable, and this will affect future communication.

She did not sympathize with Director Chen, nor did she stand up for him, which made her feel uncomfortable.

Rather, it is because one's self-esteem has been trampled upon, and one feels uncomfortable.

Some people don't understand the origin of their mood swings.

Wang Shu, prevent Chen Hong from having this kind of emotion at the root.

"Haha." Wang Shu smiled and said, "I'm telling the truth. Director Chen is really amazing."

The more she said this, the more she contrasted with Director Chen in Chen Hong's mind.

The more the contrast was, the more Chen Hong felt sorry for him.

Some people may say that Wang Shu is an Oscar-winning director, so it’s easy for him to sleep with anyone he wants.

The reality is not so.

As an Oscar-winning director, Wang Shu can indeed sleep with many people.

But, it is only limited to some small stars or newcomers who want to climb up.

Anyone who has made it big in the circle is not someone Wang Shu can sleep with just because he wants to.

Again.

People who are successful in life want both money and fame.

For them, their own comfort is more important.

So what if Wang Shu is a big director who controls the resources?

It is great not to cooperate. Although not cooperating means missing the opportunity to step onto the international stage, it will not starve to death, and there is no need to bow down and hold Wang Shu.

Take Fan Binbin for example. She has achieved her current status, but even many famous directors are not taken seriously by her, let alone sleeping with them.

The only ones who can sleep with him are wealthy guys like Xu Daizi.

He was able to sleep well because he spent a lot of money to help Fan Binbin's career in film and television production.

As for the others, they only slept with Fan Binbin after they had gotten to know each other and Fan Binbin was willing to do so.

For example, Xueqin.

Of course, this was not the case before Fan Binbin became successful.

After becoming successful, everyone started to act in a pretentious manner.

Even Wang Shu told Fan Binbin directly, "Sleep with me and I will support you."

Fan Binbin would only feel that his self-esteem was trampled upon, and he would turn around and leave, ignoring Wang Shu.

Don’t think that female stars who rely on their bodies to get ahead will still degrade themselves once they become successful.

That's not the case at all.

Moreover, quite the opposite is true.

Many female stars who have risen to the top by relying on their bodies have lost their dignity in their early years, so they will try their best to regain it after they become famous.

So, everyone put on a posture.

At this stage, they will only sleep with whoever they want to sleep with, and they will sleep with whoever else wants to sleep with them.

Wang Shu knew this precisely, so when facing Fan Binbin and the others, he never put on an attitude of "I can hold you up and ask you to come over to sleep with me".

He knew very well that if he acted like this, the other party would just spit in his face and mock him for thinking he was so great just because he was an Oscar-winning director with control over all the resources.

The reason for this is that female stars like Fan Binbin have become successful.

Even though I haven't gone international and am not at the top, I can still live a comfortable life.

If dignity is directly trampled upon, people will turn against each other.

But if you fish in a curve, it will be different.

Chen Hong continued to caress Wang Shu's face and said softly, "You said Director Chen is amazing, so he is amazing."

"You decide."

After saying that, he frowned and snorted, "With such force, I'm about to be crushed by you."

She did not stop him, but instead warned him.

After hearing this, Wang Shu's strength was reduced a lot, and a smile appeared on Chen Hong's face.

Then, Chen Hong looked at Wang Shu with watery eyes.

Wang Shu didn't say anything, just looked at her silently.

Chen Hong pursed her lips, held Wang Shu's face with both hands, and kissed him actively.

She said that Wang Shu was very powerful.

Even better than Director Chen.

This is the truth.

Chen Hong was lying on the bed, biting her lips tightly, when suddenly her cell phone rang.

She picked it up and made a hushing gesture. After Wang Shu lowered his voice, she pressed the button to answer the call.

"Will you come back for dinner?" Director Chen's voice came from the phone.

Chen Hong glared at Wang Shu and bit her lip before answering, "No, let's eat outside!"

Wang Shu looked at Chen Hong, who was dressed neatly and had done her makeup, and asked softly, "Let's have dinner together?"

"No, in case someone sees us." Chen Hong declined.

After saying that, he looked at Wang Shu again and warned him, "Also, don't let anyone know about our affairs."

"Every time I do this with you, I feel panicked, afraid that others will find out."

"I won't tell anyone, and I'm very careful. I'm just worried about you."

Wang Shu heard this and pretended to be unhappy and replied: "Don't worry."

Seeing Wang Shu like this, Chen Hong felt distressed. She walked over and touched Wang Shu's face, then kissed him on the forehead and said, "Don't be unhappy. I have you in my heart."

"I wouldn't want this without you."

"It's just that we can't do it after all."

"Understand?"

Wang Shu took advantage of the situation and held Chen Hong in his arms, and continued to respond in a muffled voice: "Understood."

"Silly!" Chen Hong touched Wang Shu's forehead with her finger and hummed with a faint smile, "I told you not to be unhappy, but you still look so depressed."

When Wang Shu heard this, a fake smile immediately appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Chen Hong felt even more distressed and couldn't help but hug Wang Shu's face and kiss him.

After kissing for a while, she let go of Wang Shu.

She looked at me with moist eyes and said softly, "I'm going back."

"Yeah." Wang Shu responded.

Chen Hong then kissed Wang Shu on the lips again and turned away.

Wang Shu watched the other person leave, and reminded him: "Text me when you get home."

"Yeah." Chen Hong felt warm at heart when she heard that, and turned around and smiled back at Wang Shu.

Chen Hong left, but Wang Shu did not leave.

Since I am in my own apartment, there is no need to run back to the villa.

But now he was a little hungry and wanted to eat something.

Man is iron and food is steel. If you don't eat for a meal, you will feel hungry.

I had previously done strenuous physical labor and consumed a lot of energy, which needed to be replenished.

Then he went to the bathroom, took a shower, changed his clothes, and went out to find food.

I walked around for a while and bought some food to take back to the apartment.

In fact, he could call a nearby store to order takeout, but he didn't want to reveal his address, so he rejected this idea and chose to go out and pack up the food.

At this moment, he was politely eating the dinner he had packed when his cell phone rang. It was a text message from Chen Hong.

"We're home." Chen Hong.

"Yeah." Wang Shu replied.

"I don't want to chat with you. It's not convenient now." Chen Hong.

"Okay." Wang Shu.

After replying to Chen Hong’s text message, Wang Shu continued to eat his dinner.

While he was finishing his meal, Zhou Xun, Chen Kun, Shu Qi, Yao Chen and others were having a meal together to celebrate the completion of Chen Kun's new film.

Yao Chen is not very familiar with Chen Kun, she is Zhou Xun's friend.

This time, it is also with Zhou Xun.

"I thought that finishing a movie in three days was just talk, but I didn't expect it to be true!" Shu Qi looked at Chen Kun in amazement, and then joked, "This money is too easy to make, isn't it?"

"I earned the salary of a play in three days."

Before Chen Kun could say anything, Zhou Xun immediately followed up, "How could you earn the salary for a movie in just three days?"

"Not only did he earn the money of a play in three days, he also starred in Director Wang's movie."

"Real name envy!"

Yao Chen's status in the circle is not as big as Zhou Xun and Shu Qi, and he is not very familiar with Chen Kun, so he did not interrupt.
