There was another burst of applause in the brown bear theater, Emma really couldn't hear Ye Wei's words clearly, and asked: "What did you say?" She was suddenly hugged by Ye Wei, and her heart jumped, but it was just a celebration ceremony, and when she heard him say, "I'm not satisfied with this movie, I'm ashamed." ”

She suddenly opened her mouth slightly and glared at her eyes in surprise, joking? Yes, it must be a joke! She laughed: "Hahaha!"

Looking at the boiling surroundings, Ye Wei laughed, happy, but also had a feeling of being disappointed. In this complicated mood, he walked over to hug and shake hands with Bethany and others to celebrate the occasion.

When the end of the credits on the big screen ends, the theater gradually falls silent. Because it was Bethany who took the stage to make the opening, why did Ye Wei go up and say a few words after the show now, or he didn't attend, otherwise everyone would not be satisfied with this premiere.

In the warm applause, Ye Wei, who was wearing a casual jacket and jeans, walked on the stage, took the wireless microphone handed by the staff, and said a few "thank you".

Glancing at the people in front of him who were still standing up, he made a gesture to take a seat: "Please take a seat, for I am a man who can speak eloquently." There was a burst of laughter, and everyone sat down, their eyes looking at him, wanting to hear his eloquence.

"I'm not a Christian. Ye Wei said first.

This sentence, the first sentence, made the audience stunned, people who already knew it were puzzled, freedom of religious belief, but is now the right occasion to say this? Those who only know are a little stunned, the person who made this movie is not a Christian?

Ye Wei continued: "But I am humble about all unknowns, and I am still looking for my answers. I believe in the existence of the gods, and I believe that Bethany's experience began with God's arrangement. Why?" he looked at Bethany's smiling face.

Everyone wanted to know why.

"You may not know that it is true that Bethany's father, Tom, learned from the operating table that his daughter had an accident and gave it to her. It's also true that Sarah's instructor changed because of a serious surfing accident.

It happened shortly after she graduated from high school, after which she began studying theology to find her way through life, completing her associate's degree at Calvary Church Bible College. Later, on a trip to Kauai, she decided to settle there, and later she founded a church on the North Shore that counsels children and youth on the island. Sarah Hill, a kind and passionate woman.

So these seemingly dramatic plots are not theatrical processing, is there anyone who is surprised 'such a coincidence?' man, it's not a coincidence. ”

Ye Wei's words paused, and the chanting from the audience became louder, and the Hamiltons were a little solemn. Ye Wei smiled and continued: "Not only that, but there is also a very shocking fact, her name. Bethany-Hamilton, whose name says the story to her, is like a legendary hero. ”

The atmosphere of curiosity in the theater is rising, and even Bethany herself has not heard of it?

Emma, who has always been keen on the occult, looked excited, why, Bethany is a very common girl's name, and Hamilton doesn't seem to be anything special.

"Guys of the Hamilton family, you know I mean to be offended. Ye Wei saw Bethany and the others nodding before revealing to the audience: "Hamilton has two meanings, one is severed limbs and scars, and the other is mountain. I think you've all found out, Hill, Sarah's mentor is Hill, and it's interesting that they're all called mountains, but they all belong to the sea. ”

There was a startling cry from the crowd, and Emma opened her mouth.

Ye Wei continued, "And Bethany comes from a village recorded in the Bible, where Jesus used to preach. Bethany is a poor little place, there is almost nothing, but the people live a bright life. So it has a meaning, painful on the outside but beautiful on the inside. ”

The shouts and cheers are even greater, and there are not many devout Christians here, but most of them have seen or heard the stories of the Bible.

"Bethany-Hamilton, who is she? What is she? Actually, her name has already told us. ”

Ye Wei's words caused a full house again, he laughed and said: "It's like the movie character 'Amanda Ashley', Amanda means someone worthy of love, an angel of God, she won the championship because of Bethany's love, but she is a good person and deserves to be loved, Ashley means woods, the most common scene of mountains." So Ashley is a shadow of Bethany. ”

The audience was jubilant, as if they were getting some compensation, and Bethany laughed.

Emma was surprised and felt that something was wrong, wasn't it? not Anastasia-Ashley? It seemed that she and Gia had misunderstood him...... Wait, she gasped, the same name, when Anastasia-Ashley was happy, now Bethany and everyone is happy, I guess he explained it to Lily, oh my God......

Ye Wei on the stage seemed to be talking nonsense seriously: "The difference is that it is I who arranges 'Ashley', and it is God who arranges Bethany." Bethany Hamilton, the girl received a mission from God from birth, and she fulfilled it. Your faith will be known to the whole world, and you are a legend. ”

Surrounded by cheers and hugged by her parents, Bethany smiled gratefully.

For her, the shark attack was no longer a terrible thing, because all the good things that are now happening from it. As she recently told the media, the accident was a blessing from God as she still surfs, loves life more, and may be able to hug more people than she could with two hands.

Scanning the jubilant crowd, Ye Wei took two steps, saw Emma open her mouth as if asking something, he smiled again: "There must be any of you who are curious about the meaning of my name, I asked my father, my English name Vigor-yes means vigorous, and the Chinese name Ye Wei means 'the only leaf', every leaf in the world is different, but it can thrive and show its unique beauty." I am the only leaf, and so is everybody. ”

Every leaf in the world is different, but it all thrives and shows its own unique beauty. I am the only leaf, and so are you.

The crowd was about to start applauding, and some of the lucky fans in the back row were already shouting excitedly, and Ye Wei also shouted a little louder: "Bethany's story is instructive, but I think it's not limited to religious beliefs. No matter what you believe or don't believe, you can get something beneficial and loving from her experience, which is the beautiful part of human nature, and it is all in common.

So for this story, I had two starting points, one was to present a dramatic and real woman from Bethany's inner world, her personality, her spirit, her source of strength, and the other was her flashes of humanity, no matter why they flashed, the key is that human beings can do this, they can be like her.

The audience has their own emotional connection, when you see what flashes in the film, what ideas germinate, it's not mine, it's not Bethany's, it's yours! Your kindness has moved you, and it has also created a new perspective on life. It's good, it's cool, keep it up and let the light of the gods shine on us. ”

Before Ye Wei's words fell, the theater was filled with thunderous shouts, and the audience was standing up, and non-Jesus supporters could also applaud as much as they wanted.

What does it mean to be eloquent? Emma shrugged slightly, and that's it.

"I'm not finished yet!" Ye Wei stopped everyone who were about to stand up, and there was a burst of laughter in the theater, and he said a thought he had just decided: "In addition, I am here to announce that the total proceeds I personally received from "Soul Surfer", including everything, I will always donate half of it to World Vision, and the other half to the non-profit charity fund that I am also preparing to build. ”

Amid the loud cheers, he continued: "In the 50s of the last century, when Pastor Robert Pierce went to China to preach, he founded World Vision because he rescued a little orphan girl who was abused and abandoned, and has helped countless children around the world until now. My charity is almost the same as the original intention, and I hope that my small efforts can help those children in need, so that more people can get the opportunity to sit in the cinema and watch a movie once a week.

I used to be a charity and I didn't like to be loud, and that made me feel cool, but now I like to say it out loud, join us, thank you!!"

After he announced this decision, his heart was much more at ease, and he smiled sincerely.

At this moment, the applause and cheers of the Brown Bear Theater have refreshed today's new high, drawing a perfect exclamation point for this premiere! The Bethany family, Emma and Xie Lin and other crew members, media reporters and audiences, everyone is giving a standing ovation!

It's a big deal, and many Christians can't do such good deeds.

Emma couldn't help but praise again and again, unlike her 300,000 salary, she knew that only with a cash break-even point of $1 20% of the North American box office gross profit share and all kinds of other shares, if SS can maintain his results, even if it is worse, it will be more than $20 million at any time.

For an 18-year-old with a net worth of tens of millions, it is simply cool to see money like a floating cloud! He also drove the Volkswagen Polo to the premiere!

Maybe not everyone is the only leaf in the world, but Ye Wei is.
