Chapter 198: I Know You're the Most Beautiful

What is the core of the content of "Titanic"?

The love affair between Jack and Ruth.

Expand a little, that is, Jack, a young painter who won a ticket in gambling, fell in love at first sight with Ruth, a rich girl who was unwilling to accept the family arrangement, and when he found that Ruth was about to commit suicide by throwing herself into the sea, Jack took the initiative to save the other party, and then through a series of experiences of seeing flowers in the fog, Ruth, who was in a rebellious period, fell in love with Jack who fell in love with her at first sight, and then the Titanic hit the iceberg, and the fire of love between the two was extinguished forever before it burned.

The whole story is simpler than the Korean drama built by the framework.

Car accidents, cancer, incurable, none of these things.

Some are young people who fall in love at first sight, are mavericks, and are rebellious.

Because of this, under Roland's sophistry of 'praising actresses' acting skills is the greatest affirmation of their appearance', this girl, who is only a little more than three years older than Roland, did not notice anything abnormal at first.

But when he used three beautiful emphatic points in a row, Kate realized that this guy who had just contacted her, and the two of them hadn't even spoken three words, had always used the same state of mind that Jack was in when he first saw Ruth, and was overwhelmed by the other party's appearance......

"Really?"

"I'm so sad then......"

"You think I'm on business, but I really think you're pretty......"

Roland shook his head with a disappointed face, although he admitted that it was because he didn't know what to say when he met for the first time, so he started with the common topic of the movie plot and wanted to narrow the distance between the two, but it was sincere to praise each other for their beauty.

And after seeing Roland's expression of 'the baby is bitter but the baby doesn't cry', the twenty-year-old girl even put her hands on the table, her chin rested on the back of her hand, and climbed up the pole with a smile, "Then it seems that I blame you?" ”

"Well, since you've watched "Sense and Sensibility" and said that I acted well, what do you think I acted well?"

Kate raised her thin eyebrows, showing a little mischievousness, and added, "Or, what do you think I'm pretty?" ”

"As long as you can say it, I'll apologize to you."

If it were someone else, Kate would never ask like she does now.

Because after she first confirmed that there was an element of acting in Roland's words, after getting to the bottom of the question just now, it would inevitably give people a sense of stalking and ruthlessness.

Roland said that her acting skills are good, maybe she is polite?

After all, since her debut, she has only made four movies, two of which have not yet been released.

And "Sense and Sensibility", which was said by Roland, was quietly logged into theaters in December.

is still the number of ways to screen in the Olympic film area.

To put it bluntly, according to normal circumstances, Roland has probably not watched "Sense and Sensibility".

He's just like Jack in the script, bragging, lip synching.

If it is punctured, it will inevitably make Roland feel embarrassed.

But Kate is not afraid, because before getting on the plane, the family has prepared the information for her, and in the words of Anthony Hopkins, who plays the Green Goblin, you just have to admit the fact that Roland is handsome, and he won't be angry.

In this way, Kate dared to ask with a smile.

Or rather, what she wanted to hear was actually Roland talking about how beautiful she was.

What girl doesn't love beauty? How could Roland not guess this kind of careful thinking?

And in the expectant eyes of the other party, Roland, who had watched "Sense and Sensibility" in his previous life, didn't mind that he was a little open in this regard, and after coughing, the smile on his face disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by a kind of woodenness.

“Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds or bends with the remover to remove。”

“Oh,no。”

“It is an ever-fixed mark that looks on tempests and is never shaken。”

"I think you performed a great poem in the rain."

"It's the same part, you look helpless, your hair is messy, and you let the rain wash over you, which is very beautiful."

"I don't know if it meets your requirements, but I think I know you're the most beautiful."

When Roland recited the sentence of Shakespeare's sonnet, number 116, in a deep tone, Ben's smile faded as he wondered how Roland would respond to his question;

When Roland said the most beautiful scene in the movie in the same tone, Kate, who had her chin on the back of her hand, bit her lips with her teeth, her big watery eyes turned into a crescent moon with a smile, her head was slightly dotted, and an unexpected excitement surged up her face.

“Oh my gosh! I didn't expect you to actually see my movie! I always thought you didn't like this kind of drama! ”

Although Kate used her exclamation to cover up the sorry that should have been said, Roland didn't care, because he had already received a very important news when he met Kate for the first time.

The guy in front of him is a literary young woman at all.

That's right, Kate Winslet, who was born in an acting family, is different from Roland's pursuit.

A layman like Roland just wants to pocket Disney, which impressed him back then, as for creation?

That's naturally how cool it is.

But Kate, that's in London's West End.

The most exposed every day, that is Shakespeare, Shakespeare, Shakespeare, Shakespeare......

What's more, as a British actor, acting in Shakespeare's stage plays, that is their duty, in other words, for top British actors, Hollywood has always been second-rate, and knighthoods with stage plays are their ultimate goal.

Money is far less important than a title of nobility.

Kate, who grew up in this environment, was naturally deeply affected.

won "Titanic", it was just the idea of young people chasing fame and fortune.

What's more, in Roland's memory, in her previous life, after filming "Titanic", she directly rejected Peter Jackson's invitation and did not want to participate in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, thus cheapening Liv Taylor, a guy who entered the circle to play tickets;

In the face of "Shakespeare's Love History", she felt that the whole plot was not like a Shakespeare movie at all, so she gave up the opportunity and let the unexpected Gwyneth Paltrow become the queen of water.

Of course, these tools that assisted Roland in making guesses are now useless.

When he used "Sense and Sensibility" to open the topic and used Shakespeare's poems to prove that he had indeed seen the movie, Ben kept his distance from Roland, and Kate, who used his brain to guess Roland's intentions, was left with only surprises and surprises.

Unexpectedly, it's because an American like Roland actually reads Shakespeare's poems!

Surprise, that's naturally a guy like Roland, who deals with commercial films all day long, is still interested in feature films!

Well-

Roland admitted that he actually didn't read Shakespeare's poems at all, and the reason why he remembered this line was purely because when he was watching Ang Lee's movies, Kate, who was in a state of lovelorn, was too beautiful, and when he was doing movie commentary, in order to win over literary and artistic youth, he deceived them into liking (recommending), voting (monthly) coins (votes), transferring (books) and sending (orders), charging (calling) electricity (rewards), he pretended to beep with dozens of titles in English.

As for the feature film?

He invests, but he prefers popcorn commercials.

None of that matters, though.

When Roland proved that what he said was true, the estrangement between the first meeting disappeared.

"Of course I'm interested in feature films, isn't 'Seven Deadly Sins' my investment? Your family must have told about that, right? And there is also "The Shawshank Redemption", and the copyright of this movie is also in my hands. ”

"Oh, of course I know, but 'The Seven Deadly Sins' is a religious movie, and 'The Shawshank Redemption' also has a religious connotation, so I always thought that you were only interested in movies with this specific genre."

"How is that possible? Uh, well, those two movies are a little bit more religious, but Ang Lee's "The Wedding Banquet" and "Eating Men and Women" aren't they, right? These two films were also bought by me for distribution......"

"Oh my God, I forgot about them...... I've seen these two films directed by Ang Lee, and they're really good......"

When you see people, you talk about people, and when you see ghosts, you talk nonsense.

This Roland couldn't be more familiar.

Talking to Steven Spielberg about games, James Cameron about diving, Warren Buffett about cherry-flavored Coca-Cola, and girls like Kate Winslet who grew up in Shakespeare's stage plays, of course, are talking about art......

Although, for Roland, the most intuitive embodiment of art is actually the series of numbers on the auction house.

But it doesn't matter if you don't understand!

When I went out with the Olson family in '94, what I saw and heard along the way was actually a topic of conversation.

For example, St. Paul's Cathedral, the first cathedral in the United Kingdom, the world-famous Gothic building Elizabeth Tower, and the Edinburgh Castle, which cannot be bypassed, are all overlapping places in the perceptions of the two sides.

Of course, Roland had simply brought it before, and he couldn't hold it back if he really asked him to say five, six, seven, eight or nine!

But it doesn't matter, age, gender and nationality are the best disguise.

When talking about kick dancing in Devon, Roland tugged and turned the conversation to Agatha Christie, one of the three masters of mystery literature who wrote "Murder on the Orient Express" and "Murder on the Nile".

When talking about the Kelvin Gowe Art and Museum in Glasgow, Scotland's largest city, Rembrandt's "Knight in Armor", Renoir's "Madame Charles Frey", Van Gogh's "Montmartre Gulet Mill", ...... How could these things be analyzed by Roland, who had never studied art appreciation at all? But it doesn't matter, as soon as you slap your head, the topic becomes James Watt.

And when it comes to Yorkshire, the largest county in the United Kingdom, known as the county of God, Roland's mind popped into his head-

That's Wuthering Heights.

"I love the ground beneath his feet, the air above his head, everything he touches, every word he says, all his looks, every movement, and his whole person, all of him."

When Roland found the classic sentence in "Wuthering Heights" from memory, Kate, who was already leaning on the table, only had a smile on her face, "Oh my God, are you really three years younger than me?" ”

"Many of these books were read when I was bored while filming, if it weren't for my mother and them explaining the meaning of the books to me, I might not be able to read them because of depression, I didn't expect you to ......"

"Wow, what a surprise!"

"I now regret that I didn't call you immediately after receiving James' reply!"

Looking at that smile full of surprise, Roland also responded with a smile.

Don't look at him calmly now, but only he understands that the so-called reading of world classics is just the result of the acting teacher forcing them to read and write their feelings after reading when they were in school.

Of course, the so-called coercion is not as exaggerated as the text bombardment of "I recommend you read "One Hundred Years of Solitude," "The History of Urban Development," "The Death and Life of America's Big Cities......

To put it bluntly, after knowing that she was going to play a lover with Roland, Kate was actually ready to get acquainted with each other, but everyone knew each other for the first time, and there was just a lack of an opportunity to knock on the tulle.

Topics of similar interest are the best weight to enhance relationships, and when Roland throws out the reserve of reading materials recommended by teachers who hate him to death in his previous life and love him so much in this life, Kate's eyes on her partner have disappeared.

Instead, poetry meets talented people often recite volumes, and people always open the altar when they meet confidants.

To be honest, sitting there and chatting about British culture for two hours was more tiring than dealing with the Zauns.

However, for the sake of the other party's smile, Roland will not be entangled in this issue.

And just when Roland saw that the time was almost up, and was about to end the goalless topic with the other party, a knock on the door entered their ears, and the news from Kate's assistant made the two who chatted happily a little surprised.

"Ang Lee looking for me?" Roland frowned blankly.

"You called me?" Kate took the phone from the assistant.

Although I couldn't figure out what the situation was, when Roland called back, the matter would be clear.

Uncle Long wants to sell "Red Fan District"?

That's fine!

Five million to buy the rights in North America and Europe, this is simply giving away money for nothing!

Roland is not the kind of hypocritical person, just ask Ang Lee to go to David to sign the contract, and then go to Sony's Evelyn to arrange the release, if there is a problem, just call Kate to find him.

This is not a big deal, Roland did not hide it, Kate listened to the first half of the sentence, and did not feel that there was any problem, but when she learned that Roland asked Ang Lee to call him for him, a strange feeling instantly surged into her heart.

"Don't you have a cell phone? Do you usually communicate by letter? Kate spread out her left palm, and her right index finger slid over the palm of her hand.

"Ah, it's not." Seeing that Kate misunderstood, Roland hurriedly shook his head and instinctively threw the pot to James, "That guy James is a tyrant on the set, he doesn't allow any other accidents to interrupt the filming progress, plus didn't I start a company recently?" He felt that business management would take up a lot of filming time, so he ......"

"I had to borrow your phone to use it."

"Please help."

"Oh, I understand." Kai nodded his head and said that he didn't mind, "But I don't usually bring my own mobile phone, it's all held by the assistant, and I also think that too much involvement in external things will affect the creation itself......"

Hearing Kate say this, Roland just expressed his gratitude and did not refute the other party's point of view.

In his opinion, this kind of girl who wants to act and act well is really cute.

After going through so much, Roland has long understood that the so-called social mouthpiece, the cutting-edge trend, and the film and television that leads the cultural trend are just flashy bubbles, and the so-called spiritual food is just too full.

Many pretentious directors say that my films reflect what kind of spirit, and I see myself as the savior of an impetuous society - isn't this special bullshit?

You must know that the foundation of singing and dancing is the prosperity of the country.

It's never what we shoot and what society sees, but what society looks at and what we shoot.

When the Simpsons murder case broke out, "Forrest Gump" brought the American spirit; When a million black men marched, "The Shawshank Redemption" went into thousands of households and comforted people's hearts.

Film and television have never been the art of doing things behind closed doors, turn off your mobile phone and bury your head in the script to film?

If this can make a good drama, then it will not be pragmatism that will save people, but hedonism.

Of course, Roland doesn't say it in front of Kate.

When herd immunity comes out, they will understand that survival is the most important thing compared to the cultural trend that has been praised to the sky.

"Well, thank you in advance......"

Roland smiled and thanked him, glanced down at the watch time, and said, "It's six o'clock, are we going to have dinner together?" James seems to have been here for a long time? Call him along and see what's delicious here in Mexico? ”

"Oh, can't we find it ourselves?" Kate handed the phone back to her assistant and asked with a frown.

"Of course, but ......"

"Nothing but......" Before Roland finished speaking, this bold girl who knew that she needed to face Xiao Li and showed herself to the other party for the first time she met directly interrupted Roland's words, "Anyway, neither of us has a mobile phone, he can't find our ......"
