Chapter 533: Take a gamble

In the study, Jiang Yan sat on a soft and comfortable sofa, and Norris's granddaughter sat on his lap.

The film plays, starting with the same cut-out version, with a brief introduction to the members of the Italian family, and then a focus on the brothers Ols and Oak.

The elder brother Orr has a gentle personality, is kind and generous, majoring in medicine, and his dream is to travel the world, and he is a medical student with good grades.

On the contrary, his younger brother Oak majored in literature, and was short-tempered and impulsive, upright, and treated everything with fairness and justice.

In the face of the final examiner, his younger brother Oak still admired his favorite radical poet, and had a quarrel with the teacher, and finally even boycotted the exam.

The elder brother successfully passed the exam and was highly praised by the examiner.

The personalities of the two determine the ultimate fate.

Oak chooses to work as a day job in a psychiatric hospital to fill his time as a student assistant, and she meets a girl named Anne with autism.

After the exchange, Oak discovers that Anne, although taciturn, is not mentally ill and has many scars on her neck.

Oak then took a photograph of his brother Orr, who was studying medicine, and Orr was shocked, a sign of the forbidden electroshock therapy.

The brothers decide to free Anne from her misery and leave the asylum to find her family.

Who knew that Anne's father had remarried, and for him, Anne was a burden, so he refused to adopt.

On the way back, two police officers checked her identity, and Anne, who had no certificate, was found forcibly taken away.

The brothers did not dare to stop it, and it was illegal for them to take Anne away.

Fate changed at this time, and the younger brother decided to follow Anne's train, but the older brother did not follow.

When the movie was played here, Jiang Yan sensed that something was wrong.

Compared with the cut version, the full version has one more plot, and that is the Florentine flood!

The Florence floods were the largest disaster in modern Italy, drowning 113 people, injuring more than 1,000 others, and destroying or washing away countless priceless works of art.

This plot makes the movie more complete, the characters are fuller, and it also adds a strong historical atmosphere.

Director Norris's most prominent style is his film roles, which have no violent impulses, are very bland, and are good at filming the delicate love between men and women.

This is also the reason for the box office failure of "Life is Like a Play", the four-hour love between men and women, even if it is filmed delicately, the audience is not interested.

But with the addition of this piece of modern Italian history, the viewing experience is immediately different.

Xia Wanqing's expression was surprised.

Jiang Yan actually guessed correctly!

This movie is not as unbearable as imagined, the edited version and the full version are very different, if the theater release is the full version, will it still be this ending?

Xia Wanqing had a strong interest in "Life is Like a Play" at this time, retracted her contemptuous attitude, and sat straight and looked at the screen without blinking.

"Grandpa, are these real?" Norris's granddaughter watches the movie flood and people break down in despair before working together to rebuild their ruined home.

"Son, this is the history of our country."

Norris said he witnessed the flooding in Florence.

And this film is about the rise and fall of an Italian family, witnessing the glory and downturn of modern Italian history.

Time passes bit by bit, accompanied by the two brothers Orr and Oak, because of their different personalities lead to different destinies.

Sicilians against the mafia; the blue-collar boom in Turin; student movements and attacks in the city of Milan; The revival of the Italian trend...

Unconsciously, the movie ended, and Jiang Yan let out a long sigh of relief.

Awesome!

Jiang Yan remembered Ding Heshuo's mantra.

Norris deserves to be called a genius director, and "Life is Like a Play" uses the different personalities of the two Oroak brothers, resulting in different endings throughout the film, presenting the major events in modern Italian history from the perspective of ordinary people.

"Are you going to the bathroom?" Jiang Yan turned his head to look at Xia Wanqing, who was sitting next to him, and pointed out.

Xia Wanqing nodded and left in a hurry.

......

"Second boss, Jiang Yan guessed right, this movie does have its uniqueness."

Xia Wanqing dialed Xi Wenfu's phone.

"Are you sure?"

Xi Wenfu's tone was surprised.

"Sure, the full version of "Life is Like a Play" and the edited version are simply two different movies!"

"I'll call you later."

Xi Wenfu said hesitantly, not making up his mind to gamble.

"Why don't you sleep in the middle of the night?" Xi Wenfu's wife asked with sleepy eyes.

"I'll go talk to the eldest brother and the third brother."

"Can't you talk about it tomorrow, don't disturb the eldest brother and the third brother if you don't sleep in the middle of the night."

"We have to talk about it now!"

Xi Wenfu hurried downstairs in his nightgown.

The orange light illuminated the living room, and Xi Wenfu looked at the sleepy-eyed Xi Ronghua and Xi Yinian.

"Second brother, what are you calling me and my eldest brother to do so late?" Xi yawned the following year.

Xi Ronghua closed his eyes and recuperated, waiting for Xi Wenfu to explain the reason.

"Big brother, the third child doesn't know, you should know "Life is Like a Play"." Xi Wenfu told Xia Wanqing's report.

Xi Ronghua was not sleepy in an instant.

"So, do you want to buy the copyright of "Life is Like a Play" and gamble?"

"That's right, take a gamble, we have Emperor Cinemas abroad, and we are shareholders of Dadi Cinemas in China, so don't worry about the cinema chain and consider it, if this movie is released for the second time, it will be a big hit..."

Xi Wenfu clenched his fists, his eyes full of greed.

"You are the smartest of the three of us brothers, and I will support you no matter what you do!" Xi Ronghua didn't hesitate and let Xi Wenfu do it!

.....

"Let's stay and have a meal."

At the door of the villa, Norris invited.

Jiang Yan's arrival made him feel good today, and when watching "Life is Like a Play", Jiang Yan often said some professional words about acting skills and shooting techniques.

Especially in acting, Jiang Yan has a lot of experience.

The director and the actor are closely related, and Norris is happy to chat with the young man.

Although his son and daughter are very filial and try their best to make him happy, their professions are different, they don't understand the directing industry at all, and they don't have any common topics.

"Director Norris, we'll meet again."

Jiang Yan said with a smile.

"That's right, let's see you at the Venice International Film Festival." Norris didn't keep it.

The setting sun stained the sky red, and Jiang Yan realized that it was already evening.

However, when watching the full version of "Life is Like a Play", Jiang Yan did not feel the passage of time at all.

Watching the edited version, Jiang Yan spent every second like a year, just because the edited version did not add major events in modern history.

"Mr. Jiang Yan, you are smarter than smart people."

Xia Wanqing said.

"Aren't you the same?" Jiang Yan asked rhetorically.

At this time, Xi Wenfu should know that "Life is Like a Play" is not a bad movie, it depends on who is more decisive and ruthless to gamble!

Some people died, but not completely......
