30 Fallen child star 30
Director Chen's apology added a bit of heat to the celebration banquet of "Shen Ai".
Many reporters watched it with passion and wanted to interview Director Chen's apologic journey. It's a pity that they couldn't see Director Chen for a while, so they concentrated all their artillery fire on the other party involved in the incident.
Xu Weiheng had just finished reading Director Chen's Weibo when he was surrounded by reporters, wanting to interview him about Director Chen's apology.
"Accident."
Xu Weiheng told the truth.
But the journalists were not satisfied.
"Before Director Chen publicly apologized, did he reveal his intentions in this regard to you?"
"Nope."
"Do you have anything you want to respond to Director Chen?"
Xu Weiheng smiled slightly.
At the noisy celebration banquet, his voice was always calm.
"I accepted Director Chen's praise, and I will continue to work hard."
It's completely watertight. The reporters surrounding Xu Weiheng secretly complained, and they didn't know how Xu Weiheng, a young man, could behave so old-fashioned in front of reporters and media.
Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of him, the reporter hurriedly turned the muzzle of the gun and asked Yao Rong what he thought about this matter.
"To be honest, I've been waiting for Director Chen to post this Weibo for a long time." Yao Rong held the microphone and said lightly.
The reporter was in an uproar: "So some netizens speculated that you wrote the script of "Shen Ai" just to teach Director Chen a lesson, right?" ”
"Of course not. I just want to tell Director Chen what the market likes now. ”
The reporter secretly complained: Hehe, this is not called a lesson for Director Chen.
Director Chen has been in the industry for 30 years, has made many well-received and blockbuster movies, won many awards, and won the reputation of "the first person in disaster films in the last days of China". But—"
The reporter's spirit was shocked: they knew that there would be a "but" behind.
"I want to ask from afar, since "2050", has Director Chen studied what the current audience likes to watch? When polishing the script, did you consider the direction of the market? When there was a serious Waterloo at the box office of "20502", did Director Chen reflect on himself? It's not so much that I taught Director Chen a lesson, but that the audience is telling Director Chen - you are outdated. ”
"People who do not respect the needs of the audience and the market, and only care about catering to their own aesthetics, that is, commonly known as self-congratulatory, will be abandoned by the audience and the market."
Is this passage heart-wrenching?
What she wants is to punish her heart.
A reporter's brain is already running rapidly, thinking about how to expand Yao Rong's speech into an article: "What do you think of Director Chen's praise of Xu Weiheng?" ”
"Director Chen is a sincere person in this matter."
Reporter: "......"
"Even Director Chen has conceded defeat, audiences who have not watched "Shen Ai" can step into the cinema to see it, I believe it will be worth the money."
Yao Rong also took the opportunity to advertise.
The reporter who was suffocated by internal injuries: "...... The one over there is Wenqiu, Wenqiu and so on! Can you say a word to us? ”
After the celebration banquet, this interview was posted on the Internet, and many netizens laughed and screamed.
Regarding Yao Rong's views, netizens also thought so.
[More than ten years have passed, the post-90s and post-00s generations have become the main consumer force, the audience is no longer the audience of the past, but Director Chen's aesthetics are still stuck in those years. 】
[Director Chen has the right to laugh at himself, but the audience can also not buy your bill. 】
[To be honest, not only Director Chen, I think this is a common problem of many big directors in China. Spending dozens of dollars and wasting two hours to go to the cinema, but I didn't even understand the story, I almost vomited blood.
I admit that my aesthetics are not good, but I just want to pass the time and have fun when I watch movies, and if you raise the viewing threshold, it means that you abandon my type of audience.
And the audience like me is the majority. 】
Director Chen sat in front of the computer, took off half of the cigarette that had been smoked from his mouth, and pressed it into the ashtray.
As early as after Yao Rong was interviewed, some friends who participated in the celebration banquet sent him this interview video.
From watching that video to now, Director Chen has maintained the same posture and sat for two hours.
Others may only be able to hear the superficial meaning of Yao Rong's words, but he understands the threat behind Yao Rong's words.
She's telling him that it's not enough to just obey; If you are wrong, you must admit it.
She wasn't happy with his avoidance of the Weibo.
- Yes, in the Weibo he published, he only recognized Xu Weiheng's acting skills, and did not admit the bad things he had done.
Director Chen closed his eyes tightly, his body fell back, and he leaned back on the back of the chair.
After struggling for a long, long time, Director Chen slowly picked up his mobile phone.
He has a lot of information in his phone.
Basically, it was sent to him by a director he knew.
In and out of the words, they all mocked him for being slapped in the face by a small screenwriter.
After reading all this information, Director Chen suddenly smiled.
If he is too angry, what are these directors?
Isn't it also the outdated group of people?
He thought these people were ridiculous.
But I'm afraid that in the hearts of Yao Rong and many viewers, he is as ridiculous as these people.
Director Chen let out a long breath and finally made up his mind.
He deleted all the messy information and made a phone call: "Help me contact the press media, I will hold a press conference tomorrow night...... Where will it be held? It's ...... Right there is the "20502" press conference. ”
The blockbuster news of Director Chen's press conference quickly spread throughout the circle like wings.
The next night, at the press conference, almost all the entertainment news reporters who could arrive were present.
Director Chen got up and gave a long speech.
The central meaning of this speech can be summed up in two points:
The first point is that he apologized for the irresponsible words he said at the "20502" press conference, and he is willing to compensate Xu Weiheng for this.
The second point is that he will not take on new dramas in the next three years, but will re-understand the market, understand the audience, and then meet everyone with better works.
"Ms. Yao has a good saying, this world is a world of young people after all, if you don't want to be abandoned, you must respect the ever-changing aesthetic. She didn't give me lessons, but I learned a lot. ”
Director Chen smiled slightly, took a step back, and bowed deeply to the audience.
This action also indicates the end of his speech tonight.
I don't know why, after saying what he just said, Director Chen felt very relaxed.
For the first time in thirty years, he recalled himself so clearly from thirty years ago.
At that time, he sat on the ridge of the field, chatted with the farmers in the field, and asked them what movies they wanted to watch; He walked the streets and asked people who were dressed modern or plain what they wanted to see when they walked into the cinema......
But then, he walked out of the crowd, sat behind the camera, and sat for so many years that he never walked back into the crowd.
It turns out that he has been out of the audience for so long.
All the reporters at the meeting stood up in shock and asked questions one after another.
"Director Chen, Director Chen, please say a few more words."
"May I ask why you held this press conference because of what Yao Rong said yesterday?"
"Director Chen, what do you think of what Yao Rong said yesterday? Can you respond to this? ”
Director Chen ignored these reporters, turned around and walked down from the podium, and left in a hurry, leaving them all behind.
The reporters tried to rush over, but were stopped by the security guards.
Seeing that there was no hope of questioning Director Chen, reporters left the press conference one after another.
Such a big news, of course, should be released as soon as possible!
Soon, related news began to appear on Weibo, large and small.
Director Chen held a press conference to apologize
Xu Weiheng, who had just boarded the plane, naturally saw it.
After staring at the mobile phone screen for a long time, Xu Weiheng turned his head and looked at Yao Rong, who was sitting on his right hand and was sleeping.
Although he didn't know how she did it, he thought that this matter must have something to do with Ms. Yao.
Xu Weiheng's eyebrows were slightly bent, he put the phone back in his pocket, stopped the passing flight attendant, asked for a blanket from her, and gently covered Yao Rong's body.
Yao Rong opened his eyes at this movement.
"It's okay, go back to sleep, the plane is about to take off." Xu Weiheng said.
"Then you can sleep for a while, it will take more than three hours to get to D city by plane." Yao Rong said with sleepiness.
"Okay."
"Is Director Chen's press conference over?"
"It's over."
"Hmm. Then leave him alone. ”
"Good. I'm going to keep looking ahead. ”
Yao Rong smiled, changed his position, and closed his eyes again.
It didn't take long for "Shen Ai" to successfully get the extension key.
After 30 days of normal release and 30 additional days, "Shen Ai" was finally released with a gorgeous box office of 7.3 billion, which stunned many people, but also made people see the vitality of naked-eye 3D technology.
There is no doubt that "Shen Ai" can achieve such good results, which is inseparable from the help of naked-eye 3D, a new technology.
With the core technology in hand, Tiangong Vision, an originally unknown special effects company, jumped up, and many TV dramas and movie crews called Tiangong Vision every day to discuss cooperation.
Pei Rou couldn't help but make a video call to Yao Rong and shouted loudly: "It's so cool!" Sister Yao, do you know, we have never been so happy in our lives! ”
Yao Rongwaner: "I'm happy to be like this now?" If it's a little later, maybe even a team from abroad will come to you to cooperate. ”
No matter how much foreign special effects technology has been thrown off from China in the past, naked-eye 3D technology has allowed China to successfully achieve corner overtaking.
Pei Rou smiled and bowed to Yao Rong.
Hung up Pei Rou's phone, and Yao Rong's phone rang again.
Many film and television production companies asked for Yao Rong's contact information from various channels, and wanted to customize the script to Yao Rong to make movies.
In addition, some film and television production companies proposed to acquire the film and television rights of "Starry Sky" and "Lightyear", but Yao Rong declined for the time being after evaluating their comprehensive capabilities.
The last person to call Yao Rong was the person in charge of Blue Shadow.
"I thought the call would have been made earlier."
The two are acquaintances, and Yao Rong speaks more directly.
The person in charge of Blue Shadow laughed: "I know there must have been a lot of people calling you during this time. I thought that I had to let you listen to the chips that other people had offered, so that you could feel the sincerity of the Blue Shadow even more. ”
In the movie "Shen Ai", Blue Shadow made a huge profit.
In addition to the billions of dollars obtained from the box office, there are also stocks that have skyrocketed one after another.
Compared to other film and television production companies, Blue Shadow knows best who brought them all this.
Therefore, the person in charge of Blue Shadow did not sell the guanzi and went straight to the point.
"We want to acquire the film and television rights of "Starfield" and "Lightyear", and we still invite you to become the screenwriter of these two films, and the treatment is definitely the best in the industry. What do you think? ”
"I'm fine." Yao Rong asked rhetorically, but she also put forward her own requirements, "I hope that the production team of "Starry Sky" and "Lightyear" are the original team members of "Shen Ai", what do you think?" ”
"You're fine, of course I'm even more fine!" The person in charge of Blue Shadow said happily.
The original cast of "Shen Ai", this name is thrown out, and it is worth hundreds of millions of box office.
Even if Yao Rong doesn't take the initiative to bring this up, he won't change the production team.
"Then prepare the contract." Yao Rong hung up the phone.
The spring rain was about to stop, and there was a knock on the door outside the house.
Yao Rong walked to open the door.
Xu Weiheng stood outside the door, holding Wangzai's milk in one hand and a box of washed cherries in the other.
He stuffed all the things in his hand to Yao Rong: "I heard you call all night." ”
Yao Rong ate a cherry and said nonchalantly: "Blue Shadow and I bought the film and television rights of "Starry Sky" and "Light Year". ”
"Visionary." Xu Weiheng boasted.
Yao Rong was amused by his reaction and spat out the cherry pit.
The moon broke through the clouds, and the melting starlight spread out from behind Xu Weiheng, shining on his bright eyebrows.
Yao Rong suddenly remembered something.
Counting up, in half a month, it will be Xu Weiheng's coming-of-age ceremony.
"Your eighteenth birthday is approaching, on your birthday, let's start a birthday live broadcast."
"Birthday live? Wouldn't that be too ostentatious? ”
"No, it won't."
Yao Rong has always been open-minded, and will communicate with Xu Weiheng about anything, if he is really unwilling to do this, she will not force it.
It was the first time she had asked for something so forcefully.
"This birthday live broadcast must be opened."
Perhaps because he felt that his reaction was a little too aggressive, Yao Rong's mood eased, so he explained out loud.
"It's your coming-of-age ceremony, and on such an important day, your fans must want to be in person."
"Everyone will tell you happy birthday and give you the best wishes."
I don't know why, maybe because of Yao Rong's expression, maybe because of Yao Rong's tone, Xu Weiheng's eyes turned red.
This emotion came strangely, but it didn't calm him down for a long time.
It's like......
It's as if once on this day, no one ever told him happy birthday, no one gave him the best wishes.
As Xu Weiheng's eighteenth birthday drew nearer, he began to dream frequently.
Tossing and turning while asleep, but after waking up from a dream, he completely forgot the content of the dream, and only vaguely remembered his helpless wandering in the dream.
Until the day before his birthday, Yao Rong took him shopping, bought him a lot of clothes, and dragged him to the supermarket to buy a lot of ingredients for making cakes.
Looking at the shopping cart higher and higher, the strange emotions that lingered in my heart faded a lot.
On his birthday, Xu Weiheng got up early in the morning.
After washing, Xu Weiheng unlocked the phone with his fingerprint.
There are a lot of unread messages in WeChat.
Wen Qiu, Di Zheng, Zhang Qingyi, Zhang Qingyi's son Li Chu, director of "Shen Ai......
Each of them sent him a "Happy Birthday" at midnight. People who are more familiar with Wen Qiu and Zhang Qingyi also reminded him on WeChat to remember to take the express delivery, and the gifts will be delivered to the door at noon.
In addition to them, several of Xu Weiheng's classmates who played well in high school also sent him messages.
Xu Weiheng read these messages repeatedly for a long time, and rolled on the bed twice on his back with his mobile phone, before he quickly sat up straight and replied to the messages one by one.
By the time he finished replying, it was almost eight o'clock.
Xu Weiheng put down his phone and walked out of the room.
The door to Yao Rong's room was open, but there was movement from the kitchen.
Xu Weiheng walked to the kitchen and saw that Yao Rong was cooking noodles.
"It's just in time, longevity noodles are almost ready."
Xu Weiheng walked up to her and watched her pour seasoning into the pot.
The mist came up, warm and hot, as if softening the spring light, and as if standing still in time, only a thick warmth.
"Two years ago, I had a hangover in a rental house. Wake up drunk and see you cooking noodles in the kitchen. ”
It was the first time he had seen her in thirteen years.
Sometimes it feels like a long time has passed.
But in retrospect, it turned out that only two years had passed.
"I think my noodle cooking skills are better than they were two years ago."
"Hmm. The noodles you cook are always the best. Xu Weiheng continued to watch her cook noodles, and after a long while, when Yao Rong finished presenting the noodles with chopsticks, Xu Weiheng suddenly asked softly, "Do you remember, what was the first thing you said to me that day?" ”
Yao Rong shook his chopsticks and made a move.
She tilted her head slightly, and her eyes fell on him.
For two years, her gaze at him remained unchanged, and even precipitated more calm and gentleness over time.
"Danger, I'm my mother."
"Mom."
Xu Weiheng shouted at her, hugged her tightly with both hands, lowered his head, and buried his head in her shoulder.
It was the first time he had called her mother.
shouted so softly, for fear it would be a dream.
But Yao Rong still heard it clearly.
She blinked softly, and at that moment, she felt the urge to cry.
After a long while, she raised her hand slightly awkwardly and gently hugged Xu Weiheng back.
"Hmm. I'm here. ”
Yao Rong said in a low voice: "Danger Heng, happy birthday." ”
Afraid that he would not hear clearly, she repeated again: "Happy eighteenth birthday." ”
The turbulent emotions gradually calmed down, and after the shyness came to his heart, Xu Weiheng coughed lowly, broke free from his embrace, turned his back to Yao Rong, and took the initiative to take the longevity noodles: "The kitchen is too hot, I'll go out first to get some air." ”
Yao Rong untied his apron and was just about to hang it back up, when the system that had been silent for a long time bubbled up again: [The system sensed that the host's emotions fluctuated greatly]
"System, did you hear him call my mom."
The system tried to analyze from the perspective of Yao Rong's thinking: [So the host is so excited, is it because he has finally been recognized by Xu Weiheng? 】
Human beings always attach great importance to titles, and a salutation represents a kind of recognition.
Boss, sir, Master.
The ordinary title is given a heavy weight.
"It's not recognition."
Yao Rong knew that it didn't understand, so he smiled and repeated again: "It's not recognition." ”
The system finally encountered a problem that it couldn't figure out: [What is the host thinking now?] 】
Yao Rong took out the ingredients for making the cake from the refrigerator: "I always felt that I came to this world because of him, and I was redeeming him. But I now realize that in the process of redeeming him, I was not redeemed by him. ”
In the Time and Space Administration, there are many excellent missioners, after going through various tasks, they are either tired of traveling over and over again, and finally choose to leave the Time and Space Administration; Or choose to pay a high price and drink the potion of forgetting emotions.
Yao Rong is not so fragile, but she must admit that when she has experienced enough, when she has seen the rise and fall of dynasties, and watched the birth, old age, sickness and death of individuals, she slowly forgot the feeling of crying.
But a strong person will not shed tears. 】
"But is it necessary that the one who weeps is weak? Only gods can be truly ruthless and desireless. ”
As if remembering something, Yao Rong refuted his words with a smile.
"Nope. Maybe even the gods have to fight for the Taoist system in the world for thousands of years. ”
The system is silent, and the huge database is constantly running.
After a long time, a poem from China flashed on its light screen-
I have known the world, and I still pity the grass and trees.
I am used to seeing the vastness of the world, revisiting the insignificance of people, and revisiting the truth of the world.
Is this the unfinished meaning of the host's words?
The system continues to look at the long river of history, see heroes and heroes, and also watch the tragic songs of heroes.
Yao Rong was beating eggs when a mechanical sound suddenly sounded in his ears, followed by the sound of excitement and joy in the system.
[The human race is the weakest individual among all the races in the interstellar world, but it occupies the most vast and vast territory of the star field. The host is right to say that their greatness may not be because they are fearless, but because they are clearly afraid, but they are able to overcome their weakness again and again. 】
Yao Rong smiled helplessly.
No matter how great human beings are, she just wants to make the cake in front of her now.
Xu Weiheng changed out of SpongeBob SquarePants' pajamas, picked up in the closet for a while, and took out the new clothes that Yao Rong bought for him.
It is a casual model with a yellow upper body and a black lower body.
After changing his clothes, Xu Weiheng touched the star pendant hanging in front of his neck, smiled and took out a copy of "Film and Television Analysis and Appreciation" from the bookshelf, then moved the recliner under the vine trellis, lay down with a soft pillow in his arms, and unfolded the book to flip through it.
The fan swirled slowly beside him, bringing a hint of coolness.
Ping An came back from playing out of nowhere, stuck out his tongue so hot, and threw himself in front of the fan, but accidentally knocked down the fan.
Seeing that the fan didn't turn, it patted the base of the fan with a meat pad, shook its tail a few times, and turned its head to Xu Weiheng twice.
Xu Weiheng pressed down the book and revealed his eyes from behind the book.
He smiled and glanced at Ping An a few times before he stretched out his hand, slowly set up the fan again, and tapped the empty seat next to him with his fingertips: "Come here and lie down." ”
Ping An obediently lay beside him.
A man and a dog are blowing the unfinished spring breeze, reading the unfinished chapters in the unfinished spring.
I don't know how long it took, Xu Weiheng let go of his hand, and the spread book fell on his face, just to cover the dazzling light for him, and he leaned on the bamboo recliner and fell asleep.
Ping An pounced on the butterfly with his claws, and when he was tired, he shrank into a ball, let the butterfly land on the tip of his wet nose, and took a nap with Xu Weiheng.
Time is quiet.
Xu Weiheng slept very comfortably this night.
It wasn't until there was a knock outside the door that he woke up.
Stretching, Xu Weiheng put down the pillow and walked to open the door.
It is the courier who delivers to the door.
"Today's delivery is a bit much." As he spoke, the courier moved the seven couriers out of the car.
Several of them were very large and heavy, and Xu Weiheng hurriedly took a hand.
Waiting for the courier to leave, Xu Weiheng rubbed his forehead: "Why are there so many?" ”
Muttering to himself, Xu Weiheng squatted down and looked through the express delivery list.
sent him mail, including Wen Qiu, Zhang Qingyi, and ......
His fan support club.
The heaviest couriers are all sent by the fan support club.
Yao Rong heard the movement and walked out of the house: "The president of your fan support club contacted me and said that he wanted to give you some gifts. It was all support from the support club and the letters and greeting cards they wrote to you, and I didn't say no. ”
Xu Weiheng sped up the speed of unpacking.
When all the packages were opened, Xu Weiheng finally saw the whole picture of the gift.
Indeed, as Yao Rong said, the fan support club sent all the support items and letters and greeting cards.
Xu Weiheng gently stroked these gifts, his eyes gentle.
He sat in the courtyard and read through the letters and greeting cards one by one.
No matter which letter or greeting card, they are wishing him a happy birthday and wishing him a bright future.
Xu Weiheng suddenly looked forward to tonight's birthday live broadcast.
At 7:30 in the evening, Xu Weiheng's previous Weibo was sent to the first hot search by fans.
At this moment, not only the fans who pay attention to Xu Weiheng's Weibo, but even the majority of netizens know that Xu Weiheng will have a live broadcast of his birthday today.
Many netizens who are idle or have a good impression of Xu Weiheng pay attention to Xu Weiheng's Weibo and wait for the live broadcast to start.
At 7:50 in the evening, Xu Weiheng finished dinner and began to fiddle with the live broadcast equipment in the yard, debugging the lights in the yard and his guitar by the way.
To do all this, Xu Weiheng opened the live broadcast room and put the link of the live broadcast room on Weibo.
Fans and passers-by who had been waiting for a long time rushed in.
In just half a minute, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room has exceeded 500,000.
[Happy birthday Xu Weiheng]
[I wish the best Xu Weiheng in the world a happy eighteenth birthday]
[Happy birthday, thank you for coming to this world eighteen years ago, the future has been slowly unfolding in front of your eyes, please brother must work hard to walk the flower road]
As if an appointment was made, as soon as they entered the live broadcast room, the audience began to send blessings tacitly.
The words "Happy Birthday" are densely covered with barrage.
No matter when Xu Weiheng raised his eyes and stared at the barrage, he could see countless happy birthdays.
[Hey, why can't I give a reward]
[Yes, I'm all charged with money and ready to send a birthday cake, but the result shows that the live broadcast room has not opened the reward]
Because there was no way to reward, fans had to work hard and send blessings frantically with the cooldown time of the barrage.
Xu Weiheng sat in front of the camera and lost the ability to speak for a long time.
A strong wind rose and ruffled the broken hair on his forehead.
He raised his hand as if smoothing out his messy hair, but brushed the back of his finger past the tail of his eye.
[Qaq brother is crying]
[I was wiping my tears just now]
[Help!] Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, it's your birthday, be happy! 】
[Say a few words to us, and you will be happy to chat]
"Thank you all for coming over and spending your precious time with me for my birthday." Xu Weiheng said softly, "I have received all the letters and greeting cards, I like them very, very much, and I will definitely treasure them." There is also a support suit prepared by the support club, and if there is an event to meet the fans in the future, I will wear it to meet you. ”
After a few whispers, Xu Weiheng began to sing to them, answer the questions raised by the barrage, and talk about his interesting stories in the crew of "Shen Ai".
He talked a lot, a lot.
It wasn't until Yao Rong came to him with two cakes that he was surprised by the passage of time.
"Put a candle and make a wish."
Yao Rong handed Xu Weiheng two packs of candles and lighters.
The number of candles was sufficient, and Xu Weiheng planted eighteen candles around the small cake.
The courtyard lights went out.
Covered by moonlight among the clouds.
Only the dancing candlelight fell, clearly illuminating his well-defined eyelashes.
Xu Weiheng clasped his hands in front of him.
The moment he closed his eyes, he saw that there was only one word in the barrage.
It is "Happy Birthday".
The number of people online in the live broadcast room is 200w.
So many people are accompanying him through this special day.
- I make a wish......
Xu Weiheng closed his eyes, like a believer kowtowing in front of the Buddha, extremely pious.
-Peace and joy to those who love me.
- The one I love has no worries for a lifetime.
- The last wish is that my future is open and bright.
After these three wishes were made, the helpless hesitation that had been haunting his heart all the time during this time dissipated.
A star cut through the sky behind him, as if it was about to fall into the sky, but at the last moment it was saved by the long night, returned to the sky, and reflected the eternal.
