Chapter 677
677 Duty
“Yup,” Everyone had to pay a certain price for their mistakes.
Jiang Zhiyuan had kidnapped her for the sake of his young daughter back then. Regardless of whether she had been reborn, Jiang Zhiyuan had already received his retribution.
Without her rebirth, because of his imprisonment, his daughter was beaten and abused by others. She was young, but her life was ruined. There was her rebirth, but because of the trauma from her childhood, she couldn’t call him ‘father’, which he had hoped to hear.
He might not have thought that the girl who had been hurt by him would eventually become his lifeline and hold the ‘right’ to truly judge him.
He needed redemption, but whether he could be redeemed or not depended on whether Jiang se was willing to learn to open her mind, accept, tolerate, and let go of the past.
Fate had ingeniously balanced all of this.
When Jiang se walked out of Feng Nan’s room, Feng Zhongliang was standing outside the door. He smiled when he saw her. you’re out.
There was a sense of relief in his words. When he said ” come out “, he did not only mean that Jiang se had come out of Feng Nan’s ward. He meant that she had truly walked out of her past. She was no longer bothered by her past and had turned everything in the past into light memories.
“Yes, I’m out.” He just didn’t know when Feng Nan would truly walk out of it.
Feng Zhongliang’s eyes were filled with relief. Jiang se asked,
“Grandpa, do you want to go in and take a look?”
“No, I won’t.”
He shook his head and allowed Jiang se to hold his arm.
“Grandpa came here to wait for you.” After all, Feng Nan was not a child that he had brought up. He could not bear for anything to happen to this body. However, he did not have any feelings for Feng Nan, so there was nothing much to say. At his age, he cared more about his heart than the inheritance of blood.
Sparing Feng Nan’s life and sending her off to get married was the last thing Feng Zhongliang could do for Feng Nan. Other than that, he would rather spend more time with his real granddaughter and enjoy the company of family.
The two of them took a few steps and entered the elevator. After chatting for a while, Feng Zhongliang seemed to have made up his mind. He grabbed his walking stick with one hand and reached into his pocket with the other. He took out a folded newspaper and handed it to Jiang se.”Take a look,”
This was the evening paper published in Hong Kong. She was a little curious why Feng Zhongliang had specially left the newspaper behind after reading it and even passed it to her for her to read.
She took it and saw the news that Feng Zhongliang had folded. The title was: A good citizen of Hong Kong! Recently, on the ‘Victoria eye’ mountain road, some citizens took photos of someone cleaning the road and making a mess.
Jiang se recognized the picture in the newspaper. It was Jiang Zhiyuan.
He bent over to clear the road. When he was taking the photo, he turned around warily and managed to capture a side view of him. His lips were pursed tightly and he looked serious. The publication date of the newspaper happened to be after Jiang SE’s first contact with Jiang Zhiyuan.
Back then, he must have already decided to go on this journey with Jiang se. While she was feeling uneasy and anxious about this meeting, he was very serious about this father-daughter meeting.
Even if there was no Grand occasion, he still hoped to be more cautious in all aspects.
The newspaper seemed to be heavy because of the photo.
Feng Zhongliang sighed. after knowing it was him, I have already asked someone to remove this news.
Feng Zhongliang knew about the news in advance and bought all of it. The Feng family had a pivotal position in Hong Kong. Every year, they were a big customer of newspapers and magazines, and the news media were willing to give Feng Zhongliang face.
He was afraid that once Jiang Zhiyuan’s photo was published, someone would recognize him and Jiang se would be implicated.
“But I still think you should take a look.”
Jiang se folded the newspaper and placed it in her bag. She said softly, ”
“Thank you, Grandpa.”
Feng Zhongliang chuckled. Outside the hospital, Xiao Liu was holding an umbrella as he waited for the two of them. When he saw Feng Zhongliang and Jiang se, he went up to them. He took out a scarf from the bag and put it on Feng Zhongliang. Then, he looked at Jiang se. His eyes brightened and eventually turned into a friendly gaze.”Miss Jiang se.”
The Feng family was so eager to please Feng Zhongliang’s return that they had forgotten that there was an injured ‘Feng family member’ in the ward. Feng Zhongliang did not want to go back. He wanted to take a walk around the area. Xiao Liu tactfully did not follow him. She handed the umbrella in her hand to Jiang se.
Jiang se was holding an umbrella. The two of them strolled along the streets. The drizzling rain fell on the umbrella, making a rustling sound that sounded like spring nibbling away at Mulberry. It made one feel at peace for no reason.
Feng Zhongliang asked Jiang se about her meeting with Feng Nan today. Jiang se told him what she had said to Feng Nan. He looked satisfied. He looked at Jiang se with pride and joy.
“You’re a good child. You’re doing the right thing.”
She had been taught well. Feng Zhongliang was most glad that she was not influenced by her parents and had not been twisted.
“I hope Jiang Zhiyuan can understand your efforts.”
As for Feng Nan, Feng Zhongliang guessed that she would not dare to mess around anymore. To this world, she was like a floating duckweed with no roots. She had also let PEI Yi know her true identity back then. For his sake, she would probably behave herself.
“Grandpa hasn’t congratulated you yet. You won the Best Female Lead Award at the France Film Festival.”
After Jiang Zhiyuan’s matter was settled, Feng Zhongliang remembered this matter that was of great significance to his granddaughter and was overjoyed. “Actually, I think you should’ve gotten this award during ‘demon’.”
Back then, Jiang se had been nominated but did not receive any major awards. Feng Zhongliang was indignant. After that, he had watched all the movies that had been nominated for the Best Female Lead Award and the movies that had won awards. Winning this award can be considered as them finally having an aesthetic standard.”
Jiang se laughed at her grandfather’s words. Her heavy mood was lifted, and she began to talk about the past with him.
Many things had been resolved during this trip to Hong Kong. The publicity for ” suspect ” could not be delayed any longer. Jiang se boarded a plane back to the imperial capital that night.
The premiere of ‘suspect’ was a success. The film had been nominated three times at the France Film Festival and won three major awards.
As soon as the premiere was released, the winding plot, the interlocking plot, the painstaking reasoning, the excellent performance of the actors, the lighting, the setting, and Huo Zhiming’s control of the film made the film receive good reviews from both the industry and the outside world as soon as it was released.
Jiang SE’s performance in the movie was vivid and infectious. Her few scenes with Tao cen had left her fans in awe. She had also shown everyone that she was an actress who had been improving. Once again, she had proven herself to the audience.
What she had was not only beauty, but also acting skills that could compete with Tao cen.
In Shu Peien’s ‘times criticism’ column, his comments on the movie were no longer just about how he felt that Jiang se would win an award. This was because, in Shu Peien’s opinion, if the movie only talked about winning an award, he had underestimated it.
Shu Peien wrote,”the story of” the suspect “is another unexpected surprise for the public after the Huo Zhiming incident many years ago.”
The Wangjin police station received several anonymous ‘death notices’, which opened the prologue of the story. From the beginning, the suspense was released to directly arouse the curiosity of the audience.
The audience followed Shen xuanran’s vision and analyzed the case step by step. For the first time, I saw Su Yi, who was played by Jiang se.
Having watched Jiang SE’s works for many years, he had a certain level of understanding of her. She had acted as the maid who would rather die than submit in ” rescue mission “, as the doukou with a miserable life in ” a Grand occasion of Beiping, ” as the girl who had lost her love in ” about I love you, ” as well as the mother in ” the demon “, the kidnapped girl in ” a chance to live, ” as well as the fallen soul in the censare’s scenes.
Every step she took was like walking on a tightrope in the hearts of her fans, making them feel on edge. However, every time the movie was released, they found that her performance was very stable.
before ‘the suspect’ was released, I was actually a little nervous.’God’s salvation’ was a precious movie. It was a good thing for her to become famous too early, but I was afraid that she would be burdened by her reputation. Later on, I was surprised to find that she perfectly interpreted the character Su Yi and acted out his soul.
The SU Yi in this movie wasn’t an easy character to play. The character’s background, experiences, and personality had determined that under her artistic and fresh appearance, she hid her twisted hatred. Such a character wasn’t any simpler than a character with ups and downs in emotions. If she played it too lightly, it would be boring. If she played it too pretentiously, it would make people resist her.
However, when Jiang SE’s character, Su Yi, appeared in the movie, people had been describing the girl as Shen xuanran and every other character in the movie. That was how she should have been.
Her beautiful appearance had a poetic feel to it, and the gloominess in her eyes made it easy for people to connect the tragedies she had experienced in her childhood. Her indifference was revealed in her reserved smile. She even acted out Su Yi’s ‘insolence’ and the ‘withdraw’ way when she whispered in Shen xuran’s ear. It was quite on point.
Her battle with Tao cen and the three conversation scenes between the two of them had left a deep impression.
The first appearance was like a Dragonfly touching the water, bringing out the plot; In the second movie, a murder happened again. Su Yi was summoned as a suspect and had a conversation with Shen xuanran. Under the calm facade, there was a tension.
The third scene with Tao cen was the most interesting part of the entire film. Both of their performances were soul-deep. Tao cen’s character was threatening but was actually being suppressed. Jiang SE’s Su Yi had a smile and a hint of awkwardness. It was a natural scene.
At the end of the scene, she walked towards the fog and smiled at the audience. She showed the beautiful tragedy, the despair of falling after killing someone, the success of her ‘revenge’ in her own way, and the compromise of taking revenge on certain rules and regulations.
Acting is an art. Apart from talent, it also requires hard work, accumulation of experience, careful consideration, understanding, and hard practice offstage. Only with a rich Foundation can one have vivid acting skills on stage, and only then can a character’s complete soul and life be shown to us in a short 100-minute movie.
It was precisely because of these actors ‘hard work that this year’s French Film Festival belonged to’ suspect’, to everyone in the crew, and to Jiang se. With her work, she had regained the honor that should have belonged to her.
from now on, I don’t have to worry about Jiang se anymore. She’s clearly aware of how she should walk the path of an actress. Just like Su Yi in the movie, she cut her hair to show her determination to ‘break and rebuild’.
All the major media outlets also praised this, and the audience was full of praise after watching.
On the day of the movie’s premiere, the rating in the film Database was 96 points. All major film data websites gave good reviews, and even many Film Critics who were known for their harshness gave it a high five-star rating.
the suspect “had made a huge leap in the box office after it was released. In the end, it achieved a total box office of 4.1 billion and established its absolute status as a criminal investigation film in the country. It also added another brilliant record to the total box office of all the films that Jiang se had starred in ever since she started acting.
With this film, Huo Zhiming returned to the public’s attention and washed away the negative effects of his previous films that had too many negative comments. He once again squeezed into the position of a top-tier director in the country.
The influence of “the suspect” wasn’t limited to this. From now on, whenever domestic film fans mentioned the outstanding criminal investigation films and the movies of the big female lead, everyone would think of this classic work.
In may, “destiny” was scheduled to be released during the August holiday. Lin xiwen took advantage of Jiang SE’s recent ‘Best Actress’ award at the French Film Festival and chose to release the film at a time when Jiang se was at the peak of her career. The film had already ignited the audience’s enthusiasm even before it was released.
The various channels for purchasing movie tickets were labeled with the number of people who wanted to watch it. It had already broken past historical records and reached an extremely terrifying number.
Lin xiwen was very satisfied with this. The investor, Oriental Cinema, should be able to make a lot of money again with this film.
On century Galaxy’s side, the male lead of ” immortal encounter “, cui Xing, also became famous again because of this movie’s non-screening. He increased his exposure and attracted many fans.
Ticket sales for ” destiny ” started at the end of July. In less than 24 hours, the movie ticket sales had reached more than 400 million Yuan. This figure was not inferior to the presale sales of ” demon “, which had won an award, and ” suspect “, which had also won an award at the beginning of this year. It also represented Jiang SE’s personal appeal and fame. She had reached the top level in China. No one could compare to her.
After ” immortal encounter ” was officially released, the actors ‘acting skills gave the old story a whole new vitality. Jiang se played two roles-‘ miss Mei ‘and’ Mrs Liu’, who was the fiancée of the male lead Jin Shizhen. She fully displayed Mei xianyuan’s deep affection and charm, as well as her otherworldly ethereal aura.
And when she played the image of ‘Mrs Liu’, a traditional woman, she was gentle and reserved, beautiful and gentle, patient and resilient.
With the two images set up, the show was propped up.
In a coffee shop near the southern square of the upper ring of the imperial capital, two women were whispering to each other by the window.
