China Entertainment started in 2004

Ms. Chen did not chat much with Director Chen. As the saying goes, if you don't agree, there's no need to talk too much.

At this point, Director Chen was clearly looking at Wang Shu through tinted glasses.

Even though I felt unhappy, I couldn't show it, so I just pretended not to see it.

After returning to the room, he took out his cell phone and sent a text message to Wang Shu: "Thank you for your gift, I like it very much."

"I'm glad you like it. I was worried that you might not like it." Wang Shu replied immediately after seeing the text message.

"It's not something I don't like, I like it very much," Ms. Chen replied.

"Then I feel relieved." Wang Shu.

"You have been busy with work in the past few years. You really should take a break." Ms. Chen already knew that Wang Shu planned to take a break for a while.

"Well, that's what I planned." Wang Shu.

"What do you do during your break? Do you want to date someone or something? Do you want me to introduce someone to you?" Ms. Chen.

"Don't I have you?" Wang Shu asked back.

This satisfied Ms. Chen's emotional value, but she would not take it too seriously: "I'm serious with you, do you want me to introduce someone to you?"

"Just having you is enough." Wang Shu.

"Stop talking nonsense, I'm serious!" Ms. Chen.

"Uh... you're enough as long as I have you. I don't have any ideas at the moment." Wang Shu.

"So what do you think?" Ms. Chen.

"Take a break for a while and then continue working. I don't need you to introduce anyone. If I really have an idea, it won't be difficult to find one." Wang Shu.

"Haha." Ms. Chen.

She knew in her heart that this was the truth. For an international director like Wang Shu who had great resources, countless actresses in the entertainment industry were planning to pay for him.

"As long as you are here, that's all I need. I have no other thoughts." Wang Shu.

"Oh~ I don't know how to say good things about you." Ms. Chen.

"Goddess!" Wang Shu.

“?” Ms. Chen.

"I said you are the goddess in my heart, and it's good to have you." Wang Shu.

This statement once again satisfied Ms. Chen's emotional value. She felt sweet inside and replied, "Fool!"

"And, thank you."

"What are you thanking me for?" Wang Shu.

Ms. Chen did not answer this question, but asked: "Didn't you prepare to take a break because you heard me ask you whether you would make art films?"

In her opinion, Wang Shu did not intend to take a break at first, but decided not to shoot art films in China this year because of her.

Since I'm not planning on filming anymore, I might as well take a rest.

She thought Wang Shu had originally planned to shoot an art film in the country this year, but the plan was disrupted because of her.

In order to cooperate with her, Wang Shu decided to take a break.

"No, I was planning to take a rest." Wang Shu.

"I don't believe it. You must not be making art films in China this year just because of me." Ms. Chen.

"You're overthinking it. If I don't make art films in China, can I make commercial films? And even if I don't make them in China, I can make them in Hollywood, so I don't need to think too much." Wang Shu.

"Hehe, I heard that if you return to China to make an art film, you can win an award. In the second half of this year, there will be awards ceremonies for Huabiao, Golden Rooster and other film awards. With your speed of filming, you can definitely finish a film before the awards ceremony." Ms. Chen responded with the analysis, "So... you must have made arrangements before, but you didn't expect me to find you."

This analysis also has a theoretical basis, because if you miss this year's Huabiao and Golden Rooster, you will have to wait another two years.

Wang Shu has now won three consecutive Academy Awards for Best Director, and with the speed at which he makes films, there is absolutely no need for this.

Theoretically, if Wang Shuruo has ideas about domestic awards, he will most likely make an art film before this year's Huabiao and Golden Rooster awards.

"I told you not to think too much about it." Wang Shu finally reacted after seeing Ms. Chen's text message. He didn't expect that the other party would have such a big misunderstanding.

"Hehe, you only know how to comfort me." Ms. Chen.

"Hey~ Didn't I say I didn't want to make things difficult for you?" Wang Shu.

When Ms. Chen saw Wang Shu admit it, she was so touched that she couldn't express it in words: "Shu, you are so kind."

"Don't think too much. If you don't participate this year, you can still participate in two years." Wang Shu.

Ms. Chen: "Your words also apply to us, but we still want to do it this year."

"I told you it's okay." Wang Shu.

Ms. Chen suddenly heard some noise outside the house and replied, "I don't want to chat with you anymore. I have something else to do. Thank you anyway."

After replying to this text message, he immediately replied, "Shu, you are so nice."

Wang Shu finished reading the text message on his phone and touched his nose.

He really wanted to take a rest, but Ms. Chen insisted on thinking too much.

……

Many people knew that he had returned to China, including Zhou Xun.

However, Zhou Xun is currently in the crew, starring in "The Great Magician" with Tony Leung Chiu-wai, Andy Lau and others.

Therefore, the two only communicated over the phone and it was difficult for them to meet in a short period of time.

Relatively speaking, Yang Mi, Liu Yan and others were not so busy and they successively made appointments with Wang Shu to meet and have dinner together.

Wang Shu couldn't refuse and accepted the invitation one by one.

Sun Li and Deng Chao also visited Wang Shu and had a very pleasant conversation with him.

As Wang Shu appeared more frequently, news about his return to China spread.

At one time, many actors and actresses came to visit in various ways.

After all, he is an international director who does not manage artists and has control over resources. He is definitely a hot commodity in the eyes of actors, and all of them want to win his favor.

Some actresses even secretly touched him, trying to challenge his soft spot with their sex appeal.

But Wang Shu is a serious man and won’t be easily seduced.

"Director Wang, it's very impolite of you to visit me." Ye Lin said with a smile.

"Director Wang~" Jing Tian stood beside Ye Lin and called sweetly.

"Haha, Mr. Ye, you're too polite." Wang Shu smiled and invited the two into the house. At the same time, he said, "I haven't seen you for a while. Jing Tian has become more beautiful."

Jing Tian smiled shyly when she heard Wang Shu's praise.

Ye Lin turned his head to glance at Jing Tian and also smiled happily.

Wang Shu invited the two to sit down, and Ye Lin explained his purpose: "Director Wang, I am visiting you this time to ask if you have any ideas for making a blockbuster. If so, I hope you don't forget Wanda."

Ye Lin knew very well that Wang Shu’s movies would not lack investment.

Moreover, he did not come here this time to want Wanda to participate in Wang Shu’s blockbuster.

This was just the excuse for his visit.

The reason for his starring role was that Jing Tian learned that many people in the circle visited Wang Shu, and he became a little restless.

Then, this trip happened.

"A blockbuster?" Wang Shu kept a smile on his face. Many people have asked this question these days, including Han Sanping of China Film Group, Ren Zhonglun of Shanghai Film Group, Wang Changtian of Guangxian Film Group and others. He replied as always, "I plan to take a break for a while. I have no intention of making a movie yet." In fact, Wang Shu didn't need to say this, as Ye Lin had already heard it before he came.

Again, he came here not because of the movie, this was just an excuse.

"Director Wang wants to take a rest?" Before Ye Lin could say anything, Jing Tian had already spoken.

Wang Shu nodded and said, "Yes, I have been busy in the past few years, so I plan to take a break for a while."

Ye Lin spoke up at the right time: "I was thinking that if Director Wang made a movie, Jing Tian would also have a chance to participate."

Jing Tian felt a little embarrassed when she heard this.

Wang Shu smiled and said, "Jing Tian is a very good actor. If there is a suitable role, I will definitely invite her to play it, but now I am indeed ready to take a break for a while."

When Jing Tian heard Wang Shu’s praise, she felt very happy and a sweet smile appeared on her face.

Ye Lin was complaining in his heart, he knew very well that Wang Shu was absolutely lying.

He was very clear about Jing Tian's acting skills, which were still a long way from being excellent.

Just as he was about to respond, Jing Tian said, "Director Wang is a world-class director. I also look forward to working with him!"

When Ye Lin heard this, his eyes widened. He never expected Jing Tian to say such a thing.

I was about to hold my forehead with my hand, but then I realized that maybe I could work a miracle with just a little more strength?
Under normal circumstances, he would naturally think that Wang Shu was just being polite and would not take advantage of the opportunity to climb up.

But Jingtian didn't seem to understand.

Even if you don't understand it, it may have unexpected effects.

Wang Shu was also stunned at this moment, but he didn't show anything on the surface. He smiled and said, "World-class is too much. I just won the Oscar for Best Director."

"Director Wang is devaluing himself," Ye Lin said at the right time. "As the first director in the world to win the Academy Award for Best Director three times in a row, Director Wang is definitely a world-class director."

"Uncle Ye is absolutely right." Jing Tian agreed.

"..." Wang Shu said with a smile, "You're welcome."

Jing Tian's eyes were always secretly looking at Wang Shu. Ye Lin had noticed this a long time ago. Thinking of Jing Tian's family background, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

In his opinion, if Jing Tian likes Wang Shu, there is no problem for them to be in a relationship.

Getting married is impossible.

Jing Tian's family would definitely not agree with the two of them getting married, even if Wang Shu was an internationally renowned director.

Ye Lin didn't want this impossible fate to continue, so he chatted with Wang Shu for a while and said, "Director Wang, it's getting late, so we won't bother you any more."

Jing Tian was stunned when he heard this. He was having a good chat with Wang Shu, so why did he suddenly leave?
"Okay, let's get together again next time we have the chance." Wang Shu heard this and stood up with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Ye Lin smiled bitterly in his heart.

He knew that Wang Shu was a polite person and under normal circumstances he would definitely exchange a few polite words with him, but now his intention was already obvious.

Jing Tian wanted to stay, but after hearing this, she couldn't continue to stay. She smiled and said to Wang Shu, "Director Wang, I won't bother you today. Let's have coffee together next time."

Upon hearing this, Ye Lin didn't know what to say.

Wang Shu smiled and said, "Okay."

After watching the two leave, Wang Shu immediately forgot what he had promised Jing Tian.

Jing Tian is not an ordinary person, so it’s better not to provoke him.

If the other party gets angry and tells his family, and his family uses some connections to help, he will suffer in his own country.

As soon as Jing Tian and Ye Lin left, Jing Tian couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Ye, we just arrived at Director Wang's place not long ago, why are we leaving?"

Ye Lin replied calmly: "Director Wang should have other social engagements. I hope we can meet again next time if we have the chance."

"Okay." Jing Tian was a little disappointed when he heard that.

Jing Tian thought for a moment and said, "Uncle Ye, does Director Wang really want to take a break for a while?"

"It depends on the situation." Ye Lin replied, "Wang Shu either didn't say that or he must be planning to take a rest."

"Now he has won the Academy Award for Best Director three times in a row, which is the first time in the world. With this honor, it is understandable that he chooses to take a break."

"After all, he is not short of money now, and he has honors, so there is no need for him to work as hard as before."

"Ah~" Jing Tian sighed, "Director Wang's film company doesn't manage artists, but I still hope to have a chance to work with him."

"Now that he has chosen to take a break, the cooperation will have to be postponed again."

Hearing this, Ye Lin comforted him, "There will be a chance."

"In my opinion, Wang Shu will take a break for half a year to a year at most, and he will start filming movies soon."

In fact, he knew in his heart that even if Wang Shu made another movie, it would be difficult to choose Jing Tian to play a role.

Unless Jing Tian's image is extremely suitable for the role in the script, Wang Shu will most likely look down on Jing Tian's acting skills.

However, it is enough to just know this in your heart, and it is not appropriate to speak it out.

"Half a year to a year?" Jing Tian felt a little longing when he heard this.

Now she also knows that if she wants to develop well in the entertainment industry, unless she has extremely strong abilities, she will eventually need to work with big directors.

For example, Huang Shengyi and others became famous overnight just by collaborating with Stephen Chow.

Ye Lin guessed what Jing Tian was thinking and didn't say anything.

-

In the following days, Wang Shu returned to Jiangcheng and rested here.

Otherwise, you won’t be able to rest at all when you’re in the capital.

Even if I'm not making a movie, I still need to expend my energy. Only by returning to Jiangcheng and getting away from the hustle and bustle of Beijing can I recuperate.

After returning to Jiangcheng, Wang Shu not only slept until he woke up naturally every day, but also had his parents cook for him. He lived a comfortable life for a while.

But with the Cannes International Film Festival approaching in May, he flew to France.

At this year's Cannes International Film Festival, apart from Chen Kexin's "Wuxia" participating in the midnight screening unit, there were no other Chinese-language films.

As in the original timeline, the jury chairman is still 68-year-old Robert De Niro.

And only one member of the jury changed.

This person is Johnnie To.

There were a total of 8 judges, and Johnnie To was one of them.

Now that Wang Shu has been added, Johnnie To is no longer an option.

"Ms. Shi, I'm glad to work with you this time."

When the jury members met, Wang Shu saw Shi Nansheng, who was also a jury member, and greeted him with a smile.

This man is 60 years old this year. As his junior, Wang Shu naturally took the initiative to go up and say hello.

"Director Wang." Shi Nansheng greeted Wang Shu politely when he saw him.

As a well-known producer in Hong Kong, she naturally knew Wang Shu.

I smiled and said, "I didn't expect Cannes would invite you this time."

Wang Shu felt a little embarrassed when he heard the senior's flattering words, and said, "I just happened to have time, so I came here."

He did not say that he agreed because the organizers of the Cannes Film Festival invited him many times and he could not refuse the invitation.

Because if you say that, it is a disguised way of belittling the great senior Shi Nansheng. (End of this chapter)
