Chapter 211: The Longest Day

Su Changqing picked up the huge crystal glass draft beer glass and touched it with Melulan Dora: "Do you think this story is bad?"

Melulan Dora thought for a moment: "The story is wonderful, but it's uncomfortable, do you really know German society?"

She can't deny that the story is exciting, because it does just reflect a certain spirit, so taking Shu Changqing's identity can be regarded as grasping the key point.

Su Changqing's understanding of German society basically revolves around the FΓΌhrer, or twenty years later, which is indeed not enough to write such a story.

But this story was written by a German, and later the film was also co-produced by Germany and the United States, and it was widely recognized, so it did not make people uncomfortable, but we have to see how she evaluates it now.

"Do you think the story is false or untrue?"

"The story should be fictional, whether it is true or not is secondary, I think you are arrogant in telling the story from an angle, and there is a prejudice against another civilization and people. ”

is worthy of being a cultural official, and first set the personality for Su Changqing's actions.

Su Changqing smiled and shook his head: "Few people say that Chinese are arrogant, and I also respect this country and nation." ”

Melulan Dora also smiled and shook her head: "No, you are arrogant in your bones, and you are naked to promote bloodline racism. ”

This hat seems to be reversed, and Melulan Dora obviously doesn't want to offend Su Changqing too much, so the hat she chose is plausible.

It doesn't matter if it's arrogant or not, the latter hat was not as sensitive in the nineties as it was twenty years later, and the country was even very sluggish to this set and didn't think it had anything to do with it.

Although she is an American, Germany is her hometown, of course it is uncomfortable for someone to expose her shortcomings, although Melulan Dora kept smiling, Su Changqing could still clearly feel unconvinced.

"I don't quite understand what you're referring to, the Chinese are known for their modesty and prudence, and their ethnicity has always been relatively simple. ”

"I have lived in China for more than three years, and I can feel that you are relying on 5,000 years of history and full of contempt for other civilizations, which is arrogance.

You call yourselves the descendants of the dragon, the descendants of Yan and Huang, and distinguish yourself from others by the characteristics of your body, skin and hair, and even openly sing such songs: 'Black eyes, black hair, and yellow skin, forever and forever are the descendants of the dragon'.

Can you imagine singing something like this in Germany or in the United States, 'Blue eyes, blonde hair, white skin, forever and ever, the bear', and if you stand here and sing it, you might be taken away by the police in a few minutes. ”

The Germans were cleaned up more thoroughly after World War II, over-sensitive to many issues, and not as shameless as the Japanese.

In addition, the bear's descendants are not Russians, the bear is the totem of the ancient Germanic people, and it is also the spiritual symbol of the German nation, the emblem of Berlin is the bear, and even the original meaning of the name Berlin is the bear.

It's still quite interesting to tease Meluran Dora, Su Changqing laughed: "But you also talked to me about bloodline yesterday, and you also said that you have dragon blood, and now you can't help but have two sets of standards." ”

"I was stating the facts yesterday, that's what my grandmother told me," Melulan Dora looked a little helpless, "and I know that saying this will get you the fastest time, and I have to admit that it is also racist." ”

"Forget it, in fact, this is identity, and it can't rise to what you said," Su Changqing also stopped in moderation: "So this story is not very good, and it has no shooting value?"

Melulan Dora was serious: "You should think carefully, the understanding between civilizations and nations is not sufficient, and it is probably offensive to make up stories and speculate." ”

"Isn't it okay to promote positive energy and convey universal values?"

"Of course, everybody has the right to express themselves," Melulan Dora said with some insincerity, "but whether it is accepted or not is another matter." ”

The implication is that you can shoot for your own amusement, and if you shoot, it will be for nothing.

In fact, after Su Changqing finished saying what he said just now, he was no longer interested in this story, and there was no reason to spend money out of his own pocket to ridicule others, it was simply full of food.

So he said with a kind appearance: "After you say this, I also think that this story is immature, arrogant and rude, and has no practical value, and should be given up." ”

"Do you really think so?"

"You think I'm pretending?"

Finally let Su Changqing accept a suggestion, Melulan Dora was very happy, leaned over and put her face down: "You are finally not so arrogant." ”

If it weren't for gnawing pig's trotters, maybe it would have been kissed, it seems that gnawing this thing is really not a good hobby, and it will be delayed at a critical moment.

As for Melulan Dora's claim that he was arrogant, he was all in the ears of the wind and could not argue.

A story that can win an Oscar ten years later, was shot by Melulan Dora, if she hears this story again one day, she must be very surprised, obviously given up by Su Changqing, why did a group of Germans and Americans drum it up again?

It's rare to see things from the same angle, good kids are rewarded, and Melulan Dora is even more enthusiastic.

Su Changqing didn't feel that the pig's trotters and sausages were tired, and he ate a lot more.

The two chatted all over the world, and ate lunch from noon to three o'clock in the afternoon.

Melulan Dora says that if she were an Italian, the meal would be eaten until dinner time, and then it would be combined with supper until midnight, which she called the Italian version of "The Longest Day."

"The Longest Day" is a World War II movie, also known as "The Normandy Landings".

Su Changqing had already drunk a little too much, and felt that if the two of them drank it again, it was likely to bombard Berlin.

Melulan Dora drank too much and loved to laugh, smiled and suddenly asked: "The "Thief Family" I watched in the morning is exciting enough, I think the "Undertaker" written and directed by you should be more exciting, yesterday I said that I intend to win the Oscar, why wait for the Cannes Film Festival, you can seek to be released in North America first, after all, it will take a certain amount of time." ”

This logic is correct, and the good things must be kept for themselves first.

Su Changqing understood what she meant, not to give up Cannes to compete for the Oscar directly, but to use the three months before the opening of Cannes to run the North American market first, and after the exhibition, it can be released in Europe and North America at the same time, which is the most efficient.

In fact, Su Changqing contacted David Landau in January, and he agreed to watch the film and has not talked further.

Those who have been in this industry for a long time know the goods, and David Landau should be able to see that "The Undertaker" is very likely to win the award in Cannes, and it should not be difficult to reach a cooperation.

Su Changqing said honestly: "I want to go to Hollywood to contact related businesses, and I have only been in contact with Paramount people so far." ”

If you can only cooperate with Paramount, it is equivalent to being eaten by others, and there is not much room for negotiation if you go, so what do you want to run in person, anyway, you are waiting for the other party to offer cooperation conditions.

Melulan Dora certainly understood what Su Changqing meant, and raised her eyebrows: "Maybe I can help with this." ”
