Chapter 678: The Ending

"Ru Ying, look there. A woman spoke softly, her hand pointing through the floor-to-ceiling glass of the café to a huge video wall outside the plaza opposite, where a movie trailer was playing in the middle of the advertisement.

It is the silhouette of a woman with a long skirt reaching to the floor, long hair hanging down her waist, writing a letter at the desk, under the candlelight, her half side face is like jade, the candlelight is white and swaying, and the edge halo is colorful and beautiful, playing a blurry feeling.

A teardrop rolled down her cheek and ended up hanging on her chin, reflecting the sheen of the rainbow and attracting passers-by at once.

Under the TV wall, there were many people stopping to watch, this short clip, the acting skills progressed layer by layer, and finally the tear fell on the letterhead.

As soon as the camera changed, the male protagonist played by Cui Xing hurried over, and the piece of paper in his hand gradually turned into golden powder and slowly dissipated.

A trailer of about twenty seconds or so, even if there is no sound, just the clip is enough to catch people's attention.

"Is this a new movie from Jiang Se?"

The woman known as 'Ru Ying' asked, and the woman who spoke before said: "Yes, this is Jiang Se's newly released "Xianyuan", which has just been released, and there is a lot of discussion on the Internet. Most of her works have a good reputation and evaluation, and this year she won the 'Queen' of the French Film Festival, and this "Fairy Yuan" was well received when it was released. The woman who spoke paused, and seemed to bow her head and take a sip of coffee: "I went to watch "The Suspect", and I cooperated with Tao Cen, but unfortunately you were pregnant at that time, and your health was not good, and you have been recuperating in bed, but you missed it, why don't we go to see "Xianyuan" in the afternoon, and it is also very interesting to watch the trailer." ”

'Ru Ying' answered, and the two of them settled the bill and got up to leave.

In another corner of the café, Lin Xiwen and Jiang Se also made an appointment to meet here, and happened to sit at the table next to the two women, and heard the previous discussion between the two.

A decorative Christmas tree in the store blocked the two of them, so that the two women who had been talking before didn't even notice that Jiang Se, who they had talked about and praised earlier, was next door not far from them.

"Xianyuan" has participated in the Chinese International Film Festival. ”

The movie "Xianyuan" has been released for half a month, and the box office has exceeded 2 billion, and when the box office of Lin Xiwen's previous works was not ideal, the box office of the movie almost relied on Jiang Se's personal appeal.

This is Lin Xiwen's second work that has been praised by word-of-mouth and box office after "Peking Event", and he has the intention to use this film to win a trophy at the Huaxia International Film Festival and add another record to his resume.

At this time, Lin Xiwen swept away the decadence of a few years ago, and the success of "Xianyuan" will undoubtedly once again establish his position in this circle.

Jiang Se's cooperation with him twice brought great gains both times, which made Lin Xiwen feel an extraordinary gratitude to her, especially when she agreed to take over "Immortal Yuan", which coincided with her spring breeze and when he was falling into a low point in his career.

At that time, everyone avoided him, for fear that his reputation would affect the box office results, but Jiang Se remembered the old feelings and took over the play after reading the script.

Now the success of "Xianyuan" almost all comes from her fame and strength, because of the excellent performance at the box office, many investors who were reluctant to invest in his movies in the past and were afraid of losing money took the initiative to contact him and talk about the shooting of the next movie.

"Thank you. Lin Xiwen himself didn't expect that this girl, who was introduced by Gu Jiaer and was not originally put in his eyes, would bring him so many surprises a few years later: "I won't say much, if you want me to help in the future, just mention it! I will keep all the good scripts for you in the future, and wait for you to choose first." ”

This circle is not big, it is not small, there are many friends who eat and drink, but it is rare to have a truly deep friendship.

Jiang Se said: "Director Lin, you are too polite, if it wasn't for your support at that time, I might not be where I am now." ”

She is a person who knows how to be grateful, Lin Xiwen knows very well in her heart, although the "Cardamom" in "Peking Event" made her stand out, but also because of her joining, the role of "Cardamom" seems to have been injected into the soul, and after many years, it still makes many fans have a great aftertaste.

At the end of September, "Xianyuan" was released at the final box office of 2.8 billion, this figure represents Jiang Se's huge personal influence and appeal on the box office, although there are many factors for the success of "Xianyuan", in addition to Jiang Se's progressive acting skills to enrich the role, increase the watchability of the movie, and raise the texture of the whole movie by himself, there is also the coincidence of Jiang Se to get it back at the French Film Festival. The actress's trophy, and her earlier prosperous wedding, marrying into a high-ranking family like the Pei family, and winning Melovin's endorsement, the previous year's "God's Redemption" Yu Yin......

But in any case, the box office of this movie starring Jiang Se for the first time is far more than that of the movie starring Tao Cen Liang.

Jiang Se has become a well-deserved first actress in China, and she deserves her name, and there is no controversy.

At the Chinese International Film Festival in December, the media broadcast the event live.

At the scene of the film festival, many fans had already learned that Jiang Se was going to attend the film festival, and arrived at the scene early, surrounding the scene.

The organizers had to temporarily deploy more guards to maintain the order of the scene.

The stars walked on the red carpet one after another, the scene was starry, and the stars showed their style.

Jiang Se's vehicle was parked on one side, and there were many security guards on both sides, Xia Chaoqun went abroad a month ago, and she was expanding the territory for Jiang Se's career, and she handed over the domestic business to Mo Anqi.

Mo Anqi was not in the car at this time, communicating with the organizers of the Huaxia International Film Festival, and Chen Shan's two assistants, makeup artists, stylists and other staff were left in the car to accompany Jiang Se.

Chen Shan looked out through the car window, and there were many fans standing on both sides of the red carpet who came from other places after learning the news, many of them holding light signs with Jiang Se's name in their hands, waiting for Jiang Se to appear.

"The organisers arranged for us to be the last to play. ”

The assistant had long been familiar with Jiang Se's itinerary, and she glanced at the time:

Sister Angel said that there was still about half an hour. ”

There are many stars who came tonight, and there are many people on the red carpet, and many crew members who came with their works walked across the red carpet at the same time, stopping on the carpet and letting the reporters on both sides shoot.

Yu Zilin of Huaxia Information looked at the time, she had been filming for more than half an hour tonight, and she had photographed many stars, she asked her colleagues on the side:

"How long will this red carpet take?" she wondered.

"Didn't you mean that Jiang Se would also be present tonight?"

The colleague was also a little strange, "Jiang Se should be coming, I confirmed with Century Galaxy, and I also sent a message to the assistant next to her, in the itinerary form sent by the organizer, the red carpet show starts at seven o'clock and should end at half past eight." Colleagues looked left and right, the scene was crowded, and the star's vehicle in the distance was guarded layer by layer, and it was impossible to see which one was Jiang Se's car.

"But after arriving at the scene tonight, didn't the organizer give a short notice and advance the red carpet time by half an hour?"

At this time, it was already 7:45, according to the original itinerary, after walking the red carpet half an hour in advance, the red carpet that was expected to end at half past eight should end at eight o'clock.

At this time, there is still a quarter of an hour before eight o'clock, no matter what, Jiang Se just didn't walk the red carpet, and he shouldn't have been delayed at this time.

"I heard that some fans over there who came for Jiang Se were a little anxious, and some people tried to contact the organizer and ask for details. ”

When Yu Zilin and her colleagues were whispering about this matter, on the red carpet, the security guards had already begun to prepare to clear people.

This kind of scene is somewhat unexpected, most of the stars have entered the venue, but so far, Jiang Se, the most eye-catching at the China International Film Festival, has not yet appeared, and the security guards are cleared at this time, is it too early?

Yu Zilin's eyes widened, she was a little surprised by this situation, some people couldn't hold it back, and wanted to ask the organizer for an explanation, but they were all rejected by the organizer.

Some fans are very angry, Jiang Se has not come yet, but looking at this posture, the red carpet of the Huaxia International Film Festival seems to have allowed stars to stay on the red carpet anymore, and several stars who stood and did not leave, waiting for studios, reporters and media to take pictures were politely invited into the hall by the security guards.

"What's going on?"

"Is Jiang Se still coming tonight?"

"Jiang Se hasn't come yet, and the plot of the celebrity walking the red carpet is over?"

"Shouldn't the organizers give an explanation......

“……”

There was a commotion at the scene, and everyone was very puzzled, and Chen Shan couldn't sit still in the car, and looked out frequently.

On the red carpet, there was no one soon, and the on-site staff adjusted the position of the red carpet, and the long red carpet extended out of the auditorium, descended from the heavy stairs, and spread straight to the car where Jiang Se was.

The people who saw this scene vaguely understood the organizer's plan, the location of the Longxing Studio, and the newcomer reporter who came with Tao Cen couldn't stop screaming:

"No, no!"

Since its establishment, the China International Film Festival has been nearly 50 years old, and when it was held, there were groups of stars on the red carpet, and the stars were shining, which was already a familiar scene for everyone in the past.

However, the organizer emptied the red carpet and left a place for one person, which has never happened since the China International Film Festival was held!

Yu Zilin was excited, and the fans of Jiang Se at the scene were also extremely nervous when they saw this scene.

Everyone waited anxiously, at about 8:25, everything was finally cleaned up, Jiang Se had already made up her makeup in the car, Mo Anqi trimmed her skirt, and the organizer staff asked Jiang Se to get off the bus in the headphones.

Chen Shan opened the car door, and in the eyes of everyone, when Chen Shan appeared, people who had long been familiar with the faces of the staff around Jiang Se saw this scene, and burst into excited screams and applause, welcoming Jiang Se in the car!

On the news live page of Longxing Studio, Tao Tao, who was holding the microphone, was so excited that her cheeks were red, because of the enthusiastic call of the fans at the scene, she had to raise her voice when hosting:

"Behind me now is a red carpet laid out by the China International Film Festival. "From the square directly to the award ceremony, paved nearly 50 meters long, the floor on both sides of the red carpet is tiled to spell out the starlight shape, representing the 'Avenue of Stars' that the stars have walked through.

"This red carpet has always been walked by the stars who participated in the Huaxia International Film Festival, but at this moment, you can see that there are no other stars on this red carpet!" her voice was a little excited, as if she was holding back joy:

"Later, Jiang Se will walk from here to the scene of the award ceremony, and the organizer will vacate the red carpet for her to pass alone, which is the unique treatment since the China International Film Festival was held!"

In France, Tao Cen, who had just finished his work, also took advantage of the rest to take his mobile phone to surf the Internet, and saw this news that occupied the front page of all domestic entertainment media:

The Chinese Film Festival cleared the venue for Jiang Se, and the 100-meter red carpet only accommodated one 'actress'!

The Chinese Film Festival cleared the venue for Jiang Se, following "Peking Event", Jiang Se won the Best Actress trophy by relying on "Xianyuan"!

In the 50 years since the establishment of the Chinese Film Festival, there is only Jiang Seyi on the red carpet for the first time

Jiang Se was wearing a pearl-colored dress, with a graceful posture and a cold temperament, she was a unique scenery on the red carpet, and under the flash, her smiling appearance was frozen by the camera.

This is the unique treatment given to her by the Huaxia International Film Festival to show respect for her!

The assistant who was holding a towel and a water bottle on the side also saw this scene out of the corner of his eye and was extremely surprised.

Although he knew Jiang Se's current status in China, when he really saw this rare scene, he still couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

The assistant was afraid that Tao Cen would be clogged in her heart, so she wanted to comfort her with a few words, but saw Tao Cen lowering his head and clicking on a video of the scene, Jiang Se stood on the podium of the Huaxia International Film Festival, holding the trophy of 'Best Actress', the host smiled and asked her:

"At this moment, Cersei won the title of 'Actress', which is naturally well deserved. You are the idol of many people in our hearts, your performance has made us all your loyal fans, in our hearts, every role you have created, your efforts are worthy of our admiration, then I want to ask you, in your heart, are there any people and things worth learning from you?"

This kind of link is just a routine with no new ideas, most people's answers are nothing more than thanking their teachers for discovering themselves, thanking their parents for giving them birth, and thanking the director for giving them a chance, or saying the name of a classic star who has passed away a long time ago, it will not go wrong, safe and appropriate, Tao Cen has also come all the way like this, in this industry, everyone despises each other, how can they really say a 'worthy of admiration' person.

Tao Cen smiled and was about to hand the phone back to the assistant, but he didn't expect Jiang Se to hold the microphone and ponder for a moment:

"There are so many people and things that I can learn from, and there is no end to learning. She paused at this point, and the host asked again: "Can you give an example?"

"Tao Cen senior. ”

She said such a name that made everyone present unbelievable, and even Tao Cen was stunned, withdrew the hand he handed out, and looked at Jiang Se on the mobile phone screen.

The camera pointed to the host at the scene, and she was also stunned, obviously not expecting to get such an answer from Jiang Se.

"She is a person I respect and she taught me humility. ”

Tao Cen's assistant obviously didn't expect to hear such a sentence from Jiang Se's mouth, and subconsciously looked down, in the video, Jiang Se held the trophy in one hand and the microphone in the other, and said seriously:

"I've worked with her, she became famous early, she has a unique position, and her acting skills are amazing, but she is still very serious when she is working. "She didn't rely on her fame, so she didn't respect the crew and the script, "When the film started, whether or not she had a role, she was the one who arrived at the scene very early and left the set very late, and her spirit is very worthy of my learning." ”

Tao Cen's expression changed from disbelief at the beginning, to the stunned at the back, she was silent for a long time, pursed her lips, and finally turned into a faint smile.

"Sister Tao......"

The assistant looked at her complicated expression, her eyes were a little relieved, a little happy, with a little sincerity and water, she tilted her head and sighed long:

"Actually, sometimes it's not so embarrassing to have an opponent, right?"

The assistant was timid, I don't know if she is angry or happy at this time, and she doesn't dare to speak out.

After a long time, the assistant whispered to her:

"Sister Tao......"

Tao Cen laughed, put the water bottle in his hand on the ground next to him, and asked, "Where's the script?"

The assistant took out the script from the bag and handed it over, Tao Cen turned the page, and the assistant said:

"Aren't you angry?"

"I don't have the kung fu to get angry. Tauchen knew what the assistant was referring to, and replied: "She won the 'Best Actress' award at the French Film Festival, and I haven't won it yet." ”

Maybe it's because she has stood too tall over the years, too used to being a safflower that is being contested, and not used to being a green leaf, so when there is competition, she doesn't correct her mentality in time, so she will lose her sense of proportion in the past two years.

Tao Cen looked back on the past and began to reflect on herself, she would always catch up with Jiang Se by her works and achievements, instead of competing with her for endorsements, layouts, news, resources and others.

Jiang Se could get out of the disappointment of being nominated for Best Actress in "Demon" but regretting not winning the award, and now she is getting the trophy that belongs to her, Tao Cen doesn't believe that she can't!

At this moment, the assistant vaguely felt that she had swept away the gloom in her heart, as if the whole person was rejuvenated, and her eyes showed a brilliance that everyone was familiar with, and she had changed back to the Tao Cen who had vigorous ambitions and was eager to be successful and recognized!

At the foot of Hong Kong's Victoria's Eye, a man is waiting for him.

When a car approached on the road in the distance, stopped at the foot of the mountain, and after the door opened, Jiang Zhiyuan got out of the car with a small bag on his back.

He saw Jiang Se in the distance, his lips trembled, and he pulled the strap of his backpack, looking a little uneasy.

His daughter was not far from him, but he was too far away from this short distance.

"I realized that this was what it was like to stand here and watch the waiting people get off the train and approach me. Jiang Se saw him come over and smiled at him.

The way up the mountain is still the same way, Jiang Zhiyuan is still not good at words, after reaching the top of the mountain, it is almost eight o'clock in the night, Jiang Se took him to the cable car down the mountain, he grabbed his backpack, his fingers were a little hard.

The night view at the foot of the mountain is picturesque, and the two of them sit on the cable car, through the glass, they can have a panoramic view of the entire Hong Kong night view and the bay.

Jiang Zhiyuan arrived at this time, the cable car was moving, and he was still a little dazed, and he had not yet woken up.

"How have you been in prison for a year?"

Jiang Se saw him sitting in a corner silently, his hands tightly grasping the strap of his backpack, and his eyes were only staring at himself, as if he was afraid that after this look, he would never be able to see it again in the future.

He nodded, and was afraid that Jiang Se would think his attitude was too rusty, so he added a word bluntly: "Okay." ”

Although his reputation in prison is not terrifying, no one dares to provoke him, and this one-year imprisonment is far worse for Jiang Zhiyuan than the blow of Jiang Se's refusal to 'recognize' him in the 'Victorian Eye' that day.

At that time, his daughter was afraid of him, afraid of him, and did not even call him 'father,' and the greatest retribution for him was this.

Jiang Se pursed his lips and smiled, took out a new mobile phone from his bag, and handed it to Jiang Zhiyuan:

"This is a mobile phone, which already stores the phone numbers of me and Ayi, as well as the people around me, who can call us when they miss me. ”

He moved his lips, raised his head with a 'whoosh', and looked at Jiang Se, those eyes were amazingly bright, hope and hesitation were intertwined in his eyes, and finally the light slowly dimmed.

Jiang Zhiyuan subconsciously leaned over his upper body in the direction of Jiang Se, and the hand that could be stretched out instinctively slowly retracted with the dark look in his eyes.

He didn't reach out to take it, as if he was afraid that he had done something wrong, so he clung to his pants, and twisted the old pants, almost torn by his strength, and pinched them into wrinkles.

"No......" His voice was a little hoarse, holding back his excitement, he still remembered his daughter's career, he still remembered Jiang Se's reputation, he couldn't affect her.

It was already unfortunate that she had a father like herself, and he couldn't help her, at least not hold her back.

He gritted his teeth, controlled the unwavering thought in his heart, closed his eyes and shook his head:

"No, I can't. ”

Jiang Zhiyuan seemed to convince himself, and the next moment he felt the cable car swaying, Jiang Se sat closer, she reached out to pull him, and the mobile phone with her body temperature was stuffed in his palm.

He knew that this was not right, a person like him was suitable for living in the dark, and should not be close to the light, but he didn't know if it was because the wind was particularly strong tonight, he was wearing a thin piece of clothing, and he had been freezing for a long time, too eager for this warmth, too much hoping to be close to his daughter again, so when she reached out, he knew that he should stay away from her, which was a good thing for Jiang Se.

The phone should not be taken either, he is used to having no fixed place, he is used to being careful and not showing traces, he rejects everything, isolates himself from this society, and wanders outside the rules.

He understood the reason, and his reason even reminded him not to reach out and take it.

But when Jiang Se stuffed the mobile phone, his reaction was to firmly grasp the mobile phone with his daughter's body temperature, even if there was only a little residual warmth, he didn't want to give up.

He doesn't care whether the mobile phone is located or not, whether he will catch himself, and whether he will be easily caught by someone through the mobile phone when he does what he wants in the future.

"The role of 'father' has always been absent in my life, and I haven't learned how to be a daughter, and I don't know what to do. She smiled, but Jiang Zhiyuan's eyes began to feel hot and burning: "Having a father is still a little strange to me, how to be a good daughter, I will try to accept it in the future, try to learn, maybe it will take a little time to get used to, I hope you don't mind." ”

The cable car staggered over a hill, her face a little pale, but her smile was bright and lovely, overlapping with the face he remembered.

His lips pursed into a straight line, and the skin around his eyes trembled slightly, showing his agitated heart.

"I ......"

He choked in his throat and couldn't speak, he never believed in fate cause and effect, but at this time he had to thank fate for giving him such a surprise.

"When Feng Nan was in the middle of his year, he married the heir of the Zhao family of Jianghua Group. She lowered her eyelids and said softly: "In the future, there will be no more relations between us and Feng Nan, okay?"

"Hmm!" he nodded desperately.

"Don't hurt people in the future. She whispered, Jiang Zhiyuan's eyes were hot, and tears almost burst out of his eyes, he had shed blood and sweat over the years, and he had not shed tears yet, this was his weakness in front of him, don't say that she just asked him not to hurt people in the future, that is, she was at this moment, let him jump from this high place, and he did not hesitate.

"Hmm!" he replied in a low voice.

The incomparably beautiful night view of Hong Kong tonight gave him a single impression after washing away the past years.

When he came to Hong Kong for the first time in his life, he saw that it was full of money and opportunities.

After that, he spent a lot of time in prison, and his impression of Hong Kong was only the cramped cell with high walls.

When I came again, I came with a mortal heart, and I didn't think about going back alive.

In the early morning of the day when he met Jiang Se and walked all the way to the 'Victorian Eye', he didn't care about looking at the scenery, and almost all his mind was looking at his daughter, because Feng Nan's words were worried, afraid that she would hate him, afraid that she would resist, afraid that she would be afraid, afraid of karma, and he would not be at peace.

And at this moment, he feels that this is the best scenery in the world!

His simple bag is no longer just two old clothes, some toiletries, he has added a new mobile phone, and his daughter said that in the future, he will gradually add more things to his bag.

There might be pictures of her, more belongings about her daughter, maybe there would be so many things that he couldn't easily carry the bag around, maybe he would find a job again, settle down again, and settle down again.

He is not going to be a good father yet, no one is born with an identity, and he has a lot to learn in the future.

When he regretted not being able to hear his daughter babbling, the first "father" came out of his voice, and he hoped that in the future, he would hear it.

The cable car slowly stopped at the entrance of the mountain, and when the door opened, Jiang Se came out of it and saw Pei Yi standing outside the door at a glance.

He was like a green pine on the top of the mountain, with a slender and straight figure, his eyes reflected her figure, and when he saw Jiang Se, his cold expression broke the ice in a second, revealing a faint warmth.

He will always be like this, and he will always be there when he needs him.

Jiang Se lunged at him, his hands firmly holding her body.

"Ah Yi! husband!"

He still had the coolness of the evening breeze on his body, listening to her coquettish words, a shallow smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, he first looked up at Jiang Zhiyuan, and made sure that this dangerous person was no threat to Jiang Se, so he lowered his head and kissed her hair, a man like him could also show a look like water, and responded gently: "Hmm." ”
