At this moment, outside the ‘demon’ theater, shupien, who was collecting tickets with his film critic id, walked around the basement and saw the picture of the basement Palace on the Middle Pillar.
From the electronic screen, shupeien saw that ‘the demon’ was playing. There were still about ten minutes before the broadcast time.
As a professional film critic, shupeien, of course, knew that Zhao rang’s ” demon ” would be selected for this year’s France Film Festival. However, when he came to the film Palace tonight, he had originally planned to watch another film that was participating in the French Film Festival’s theme competition unit.
The director of ” unexpected incident “, which was starring Tao cen, was ning zhanping, one of Shu Peien’s old friends of many years. His performance was quite stable.
Ning zhanping liked to interpret stories from the perspective of human nature, which happened to be the favorite type of film for the judges of the France Film Festival.
Especially since Tao cen was the main lead for ” unexpected events “, Shu Peien was quite optimistic about this film winning an award.
Among the A-list actresses in the country, Tao cen had been popular for many years and had a good reputation in the film industry. Her acting skills were superb, and she played the leading role in ” unexpected incident “. With ning zhanping’s cooperation, her performance should be quite stable. Therefore, ” unexpected incident ” was the first film that Shu Peien had originally planned to watch on this trip to the France Film Festival.
‘Demon’ was also on his list of films to watch, but it should not be now.
However, he didn’t know if it was his fate, but when he went down to the first floor, he couldn’t find the theater where ” unexpected events ” was being played. Instead, he accidentally saw the indicator light for ” demon “.
Information about “demon” appeared in Shu Peien’s mind. At the beginning of the filming, Zhao rang had been quite mysterious. He had kept it a secret and kept the fans and media in suspense, not revealing any information at all.
Other than knowing that the male and female leads were Liu Ye and Jiang se, that this film was Liu Ye’s transition, and the genre of the film, shupeien had no idea what the film was about.
He stood in front of the sign and paused for a moment. Jiang se and Liu Ye appeared in his mind.
In “unexpected events,” Tao cen had practically taken charge of the show by herself when she worked with the newcomer Wei Chun. Zhao rang’s “demon” could be said to have adopted a similar style. Between Liu Ye, who had good acting skills, a good reputation, and a high status, and Jiang se, which one would be more interesting?
Jiang se had only been in the industry for a few years, but the quality of the films she had acted in was guaranteed. It was obvious that her acting skills were improving bit by bit in the films.
Compared to Tao cen’s experienced and steady play, shupeien was more curious about the girl’s uncertainties. Thus, he only hesitated for a moment before he decided to watch “the demon.”
Perhaps it was God’s will, he searched for “unexpected events” for a long time, but he couldn’t find the way. In the end, he followed the corner of the indicator light and saw the theater of “demon “.
There was no one at the entrance of the theater at the moment. Jiang se, who was dressed in a white gown, was talking to Liu Ye. It seemed like the two of them had been signing autographs here before this.
“Teacher Shu.”
Liu Ye saw Shu Peien from a distance. He had been in the circle for many years, so he had inevitably come into contact with Shu Peien a few times. They could be considered to know each other.
Shu Peien nodded. After shaking hands with Liu Ye, his gaze fell on Jiang se. The little girl stood up and shook hands with him with a smile. She also greeted him graciously, ”
“Teacher Shu.”
In Shu Peien’s special column, he had written two reviews about Jiang se. He had a good impression of her. When he saw the situation of local films at the France Film Festival, he sighed inwardly.
“I’m here to watch” demon.” Zhao rang has been keeping this movie a secret since the beginning of filming. It’s really fate that I’m transferred here now that it’s premiering.”
In fact, he had not been in good health for the past two years. At the end of last year, he had been hospitalized for a period of time and had an operation. He had been recuperating in the second half of the year.
Liu Ye thought that this professional film critic wouldn’t appear at this year’s film Festival. He didn’t expect that Shu Peien would still come. He couldn’t help but feel a little admiration for him.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Shu Peien entered the theater. When he came in, nearly half of the theater was already occupied. Zhao rang and the others were also in the theater. He picked a seat at the back and sat down. Then, he solemnly took out the glasses in his arms, took a cloth to Polish it, and then solemnly put it on.
He had been to the French Film Festival many times, and he liked the theater here the most. The screen was large and clear, and the colors and sound were excellent. Not only could domestic cinemas not compare, but even world-renowned cinemas could hardly compete with it.
When he sat down, shupeien raised his wrist to look at his watch. There were still five minutes before the broadcast time.
As time passed, more people gradually entered the theater. Other than Asian faces, there were also a few foreigners, and a few of them had media passes on their chests.
When the time was up, the lights in the theater dimmed. Shupeien adjusted his sitting position and stared at the screen.
Before the movie was aired, shupeien had an estimate of ‘the demon’s’ score. If the total score was 100, then shupeien would give it 80 based on the cast.
Liu Ye’s acting skills went without saying. He had many years of experience in the underworld and could handle many of the roles well.
Moreover, Shu Peien also had a certain understanding of Liu Ye. He was a serious and dedicated person. No matter what role he played, he would always play it to a certain extent. Shu Peien would give him 40 points just based on his name.
Zhao rang was an experienced director, and his previous works had always been stable. However, this was his first time being involved in the genre of “the demon “. It was unknown how well he could produce this film and how much potential he could tap into Liu Ye’s body. That was why shupeien gave him 15 points.
As for Jiang se, she was an unpredictable character. From her previous works, it was obvious that she had made great progress among her peers. However, she was working with Liu Ye, so it was very likely that she would be restrained by him.
Although Shu Peien was curious about the outcome of their collaboration, he was also worried about it. He was afraid that Jiang se would be suppressed by Liu Ye in the film and would not be able to perform well. Hence, he gave Jiang SE 15 points as well while the rest of the points were allocated to the post-production editing.
It was said that the post-production team would be assigned to a well-known foreign production company. It was clear that Zhao rang had put in a lot of effort in the details of the film.
At the start of the film, Zhang Yuqin, who was played by Jiang se, appeared on the screen.
To be honest, the moment he saw Jiang se, he was greatly surprised. He was still thinking about the Jiang se he had seen at the entrance of the cinema earlier. She was young and beautiful, with plump cheeks, a smiling expression, and a beautiful figure wrapped in a white lace gown. She was graceful and elegant.
However, the Jiang se on the screen seemed to have torn his impression of her into two.
Her long hair was tied into a ponytail and was drenched in sweat. She looked a little messy. She was wearing a professional suit that did not fit her. There were signs of life’s hardships between her eyebrows. She was carrying a backpack and squeezing in the subway. Even though she still looked young, her eyes showed the fatigue of life.
How was this possible?
