Chapter 110: Genius and Freedom
Brooklyn is quiet at night.
Unlike the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles, the night here is like a sleeping baby, immersed in a quiet dreamland. The evening breeze blows the new leaves on the branches and buds, making a rustling sound
Lying in the middle of the "Seaside Avenue", looking up at the stars flickering in the sky, Xian Sen gently closed his eyes, the first day of shooting was over, but he didn't know how it ended.
"Still thinking about things here?"
A woman's voice came from her ear, and there seemed to be some concern and pity in her voice.
"Alas"
With a long sigh, Xiansen didn't say anything.
"It's a process, slowly, and you'll get used to it."
As she spoke, the woman walked towards Xiansen, her high-heeled shoes stepping on the boardwalk, making a "da-da" sound with every step. Walking all the way to the middle of the seaside avenue, looking down at Xiansen lying on the ground, the woman slowly squatted down and whispered: "You did a very good job, Mister, really, in fact, you are a genius." ”
"Genius?"
Hearing this word, Xiansen couldn't help but smile bitterly, if he is really a genius, then the shooting progress during the day will not be so unsmooth, in one day, he didn't shoot a single shot, this is a genius?
Perhaps seeing what Xian Sen was thinking, the woman slowly leaned her head on Xian Sen's chest, listened to the powerful heartbeat, and continued: "I can hear the approval in your heart, Mister, although you don't want to admit it yourself, your heart has given a positive answer. ”
Hearing this, Xiansen was stunned.
Affirmative answer!
This woman is right, she did give a positive answer in her heart, he is a genius, in the world of light and shadow, he has always felt that he is a genius!
Alone, it took six months to shoot an advertisement for a cake shop, which was his first work, and the reason why he was able to stick with it for half a year was that he considered himself a genius.
The reason why his screen debut, "50 First Loves", made him dare to take the heavy check of $1.4 million from his father was that he considered himself a genius.
"Shutter Island", the challenge of high-IQ films, when choosing a mission, the reason why he did not hesitate to choose a five-star script is that he considers himself a genius.
In half a month, 911 has just passed half a month, and the reason why he produced the animated short film "HOPE" and dared to spend a huge amount of money (advertising money) to broadcast it on major TV stations in the United States is that he thinks he is a genius.
The reason why he has never been exposed to TV dramas, but has taken over the adaptation of such a heavy historical story as "Atlantic Empire" is that he considers himself a genius
Xiansen considers himself a genius, so he never thinks about what happens after failure; Xiansen thinks he is a genius, so he is confident that he will make any movie well; Xiansen thinks that he is a genius, so he wants to get rid of his dependence on the internal system and want to be more free to make movies.
"Bella, am I really a genius?"
Xiansen opened his eyes and looked at Bella Marceau, who was leaning against his chest, as if he was asking her, and as if he was asking himself.
Removing her head from Xiansen's body, Bella Marceau stood up and nodded with a smile: "There is no doubt about it! ”
After saying that, she walked to the opposite side of Xiansen, squatted down, and then also lay on the ground, looked up at the starry sky, and muttered to herself: "There are so many stars in Brooklyn, it's so good"
"Bella, can I ask you some questions?"
Darkness can sometimes bring a sense of security and make people say things that are not usually spoken.
"Well, you say, of course, I won't necessarily answer."
Bella Marceau closed her eyes as she spoke, and the evening breeze gently brushed across her face, soft and cool.
"Do you still hate directing?"
This question Xiansen wanted to ask for a long time, Bella Marceau originally joined his film team in order to heal the damage caused by her ex-husband, and now that such a long time has passed, Xiansen doesn't know if this woman still has a psychological shadow. In fact, he hoped that Bella Marceau had not been cured, because then she would be able to stay at Black Hole Film Studio.
"I don't know"
It took a long time before the voice of Bella Marceau came from the side.
"I don't know if I hate him or not, but when I really started in Hollywood, I realized that some things seemed to be completely different from what I originally thought."
Bella Marceau seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly laughed: "Haha, Mister, you said that if I told you a secret, you would be angry?" ”
"Secret? What secret? ”
Xiansen asked with some confusion, a secret that can make him angry, could it be that Bella Marceau is actually a man, uh, patted his head, Xiansen knew that he was thinking too much.
"Mistre, actually, actually" After hesitating for a while, Bella Marceau said: "Actually, every day I receive a lot of invitations to drinking parties, inviting you to come over to some parties, most of these invitations will be accompanied by some pictures of girls, very beautiful girls, they express their love for you, I cough cough, I refuse for you." ”
Hearing this, Xiansen opened his mouth in surprise, the unspoken rules are already an open and transparent thing for the entertainment industry, and Hollywood is like a puddle of muddy water, with various surnames trading one-night stands mixed in it, Xiansen was surprised that he was also a popular director, why didn't he encounter opportunities such as unspoken rules, for this reason, he also doubted his charm for a while, and now, he finally understands that someone secretly intercepted these things, and this behavior is resolutely unforgivable.
"Bella, you're so sad for me."
Shaking his head, Xiansen said in a deep voice: "Do you know, it doesn't matter if those invitations are rejected, the important thing is that you haven't told me, you don't believe me, do you think, I'm such a casual person?" ”
"I'm sorry, Mister"
Bella Marceau apologized guiltily.
"Well, give me those letters in the future and let me decide"
Before Xiansen could finish his words, he was interrupted by Bella Marceau: "Now I tell you, so I can refuse for you in the future."
"No, this is you"
Xiansen was about to say something, but he heard Bella Marceau ask in a skeptical tone, "Do you want to go to those ballroom balls?" Or do you want to take Rachel with you? ”
"Nope! I mean, you're going to have to say no more decisively, more simply, yes, that's what I'm talking about! ”
patted his chest with righteous words, and Xiansen immediately changed his attitude. Rachel was his girlfriend, and he didn't want to hurt this little girl in the slightest, and if Rachel became like Bella Marceau, he would be guilty for the rest of his life. Well, Xiansen felt as if he was thinking wrong again.
"So, I suddenly feel that if a man lives in such a circle, it should be difficult for most of them to be clean and self-conscious, except for gay and physically defective people."
Bella Marceau added: "However, this is not enough reason for me to forgive him. It is his freedom to choose to betray his marriage, and it is my freedom to choose whether to forgive him or not! ”
With a long sigh, Xiansen stopped talking, and he didn't want to know the answer to the question he had just asked, whether Bella Marceau still hated the profession or not, as long as she was still in Black Hole Film Studios, it would be enough.
"Mister, I think, it's time for me to go back, you see, there are no more stars."
Bella Marceau stood up, dusted herself off her body, and walked towards the hotel with her high heels.
"Bella, are you free?"
Listening to the sound in his ears, Xiansen got up from the ground and shouted to the black shadow in front of him.
The footsteps stopped, and Bella Marceau turned around and said with a smile, "What is freedom?" Mister, we will be constrained by various rules from birth, morality, law, natural laws, etc., all of which limit our freedom, so who is a free person? ”
"Bella, do you feel free?" After a pause, Xiansen added: "I want to pursue freedom"
The meaning of the two sentences seems to be similar, but the meaning they want to express is very different.
"Of course it's not free, but I like it. Mister, the deliberate pursuit of freedom is actually a kind of unfreedom, if you want to fly, but you think that the plane restricts freedom, then you can only be distressed in vain, besides, where is your freedom restricted? ”
Xiansen nodded thoughtfully, perhaps, he has to re-understand true freedom.
"Thank you, Bella"
