Huayu Entertainment: Tianxian really wants to improve

Chapter 37 Sundance Film Festival
Gu Bei suppressed his laughter and took out a tissue and handed it over: "Be careful, why are you so reckless!"

"It's just average. I haven't had time to go out and buy books recently."

Liu Yifei rolled her eyes at him and quickly wiped the coffee off her hands and pants.

Although she told Xia Mengqi the story of how she met Gu Bei last night.

But in this story, including the system, there are too many things that cannot be said explicitly, so the whole story omits many details, including the fact that Gu Bei is the author of "The Fault in Our Stars".

Listening to the laughter coming from the side,
Liu Yifei was furious.

She stuffed the coffee into the car cup holder, twisted her body, and moved closer to Gu Bei.

Those almond-shaped eyes and high nose bridge instantly occupied almost all of Gu Bei's sight.

This girl is so brave!

Gu Bei instinctively wanted to step back.

But he suppressed it and looked at her without showing any weakness.

I've always heard of an experiment in psychology that shows that people who look at each other for more than 10 seconds often become lovers or strong friends after the experiment.

Gu Bei was not sure whether this experiment was real.
But as the time of staring at each other prolonged, the complex emotions in his heart were indeed constantly surging.

Finally, in silence,
Liu Yifei spoke first, her voice a little hoarse:
"Do you want to buy it?"

"Then do you see it?" Gu Bei answered almost instinctively.

"Aren't books meant to be read?"

Liu Yifei's lips curved into a curve, she was about to win.

"purchase!"

Gu Bei spoke with great force.

Before Liu Yifei could react, he added, "I'm aiming for 200 million copies!"

Liu Yifei's smug look froze, and before she could react, the opportunity was gone.

"Okay, then I'll buy two too!" She gritted her teeth.

Gu Bei smiled and stretched out his hands.

Hold "1" with your left hand and bring it close to you.

Raise "0" in your right hand and move closer to the other person.

Gu Bei vs. Zhou Qianqian.

1: 0!

Okay, okay! So provocative, huh?

Liu Yifei's unyielding spirit came up. In the end, there can only be one winner in this "war"!
……

Gu Bei returned to his apartment in Manhattan.

As expected, both women were grounded.

Gu Bei was watching the New Year's Eve ceremony in Times Square, New York, on TV.

As the crystal ball in the sky slowly fell, gorgeous fireworks shot up into the sky.

Everyone is telling him that 2007 has finally arrived.

After four months of traveling,

He shot and completed his first short film, The Tuner;
Wrote and successfully launched The Fault in Our Stars, which topped the New York Times bestseller list for the last three weeks of 2006, selling over 150 million copies.

We have reached a preliminary investment intention with the two founders of Riot Games and are waiting for the opportunity to acquire a stake in Riot Games next year;
Of course, there are also new people I met in this life.

……

2007 has only just begun for two weeks.
Gu Bei took Antonio to Salt Lake City, Utah.

As the host city of the 2002 Winter Olympics along with Park City, Salt Lake City is noticeably colder than Manhattan in New York.

"hiss--"

Antonio, dressed in hippie clothes, behaved himself as soon as he got off the plane. He immediately put on more clothes after getting his luggage and never mentioned anything about artistic expression again.

Even Gu Bei, who was well prepared, couldn't help shivering when he saw the endless snow-capped mountains outside the airport.

It's so cold! "Hannibal!"

"What? Hamburgers?"

Gu Bei couldn't hear Antonio's trembling voice and looked at him in confusion, not understanding why he mentioned the hamburger at this time.

"OMG! It's Hopkins, Anthony Hopkins!" Antonio was like a crazy star-chasing teenager at this moment, pointing excitedly at a place not far away.

Gu Bei turned around and saw Anthony Hopkins, who played the psychopathic killer Hannibal Lecter in "The Silence of the Lambs".

But, seventeen years have passed.

Anthony is obviously much older than in the movie, with a head full of white hair and a pair of flying sunglasses, still looking like a cool old man.

"Since you're so excited, go get an autograph."

Gu Bei never chases stars, and he can't understand Antonio's current mental state.
But he had friends who were star-chasers and knew what Antonio wanted most right now.

"I dare not." Antonio obviously lost face for his hippie spirit.

"Then follow me!"

Gu Bei guessed that Anthony Hopkins was probably also going to the Sundance Film Festival in Park City.

"Mr. Hopkins."

Gu Bei brought Antonio closer. There was a woman next to Anthony Hopkins, probably his wife. "It's an honor to meet you here. Are you going to the Sundance Film Festival?"

"Yes, yes, you two guys... too?" Anthony Hopkins said in a very kind manner.

"The short film I directed was shortlisted. This is my assistant director and also your loyal fan." Gu Bei let Antonio out.

"Really? I'm not questioning you, it's just that you're really too young!"

Anthony Hopkins smiled with interest, "That's great! I've always hoped that the film festival would have fresh blood like you!"

Antonio took the opportunity to chat with his idol.

Congratulations on getting the signature +1!

"This trip was really not in vain!"

Antonio walked out the door, still muttering excitedly.

Gu Bei was shivering with cold at the moment. As a native of Hangzhou, it was really difficult for him to adapt to the weather in this kind of place.

He now just wants to go to Park City, which is more than 30 miles away from Salt Lake City Airport, which is more than 50 kilometers!

At the same time, he also noticed that there was a commercial vehicle with the 'Sundance Film Festival' logo parked not far away.

no doubt,

This isn't a place to pick them up!

There are 43 short films selected for the short film unit like them.
If everyone is picked up, it will not be a business car, but a bus.

Sure enough, when Anthony Hopkins and his wife walked out of the gate, the door of the business car opened and a young woman got out and greeted them warmly.

The three of them didn't talk much.

The young woman respectfully welcomed Anthony Hopkins and his wife into the business car.

Finally, I climbed up and closed the car door again to block out the cold air outside.

Anthony Hopkins and his wife were already in the business car within ten seconds of walking out of the door.

"Director, I can already imagine how warm it is inside the car!" Antonio also saw this scene and said to Gu Bei enviously.

Gu Bei glanced at him.

Given Antonio's lifestyle, if he weren't still young, his body would have collapsed long ago.

However, it has to be said that Anthony Hopkins is worthy of being a top Hollywood actor. Even if he has no works on display, the organizers of the Sundance Film Festival still flatter him to this extent.

Just then, the business car drove up and stopped in front of the two of them.

The car door opens.

"Come on up, boys, let's go to Park City!"
