Great At Acting, Now I’m Reborn

Tokyo Film Festival.

As one of the 15 A-type film festivals in the world, this year's Tokyo Film Festival is also star-studded as usual.

Among the nominated film teams, one from China has attracted the attention of domestic media.

As we all know, international film festivals always prefer literary and artistic films to commercial films. But this time, there is a commercial work that stood out in the wave of literary and artistic films and was eligible to participate.

On the red carpet, Meng Chuan, who is walking behind the hero and heroine, looks only thirty-five years old, and his long hair is tied together on his neck. He looks plain, less than 1.73 meters tall. But there is a special melancholic taste, people can't help but look again.

"How does Director Meng feel about attending the International Film Festival for the first time?"

"As the only 30-generation director who has been nominated for a category A international film festival this year, what are your expectations for this trip to Tokyo?"

After the red carpet, Meng Chuan was interviewed by domestic media in the rear.

Although it hasn't been a few years since he turned from the deputy director to the main director, Meng Chuan, who has been in Hollywood for many years, has long been familiar with the media's questions, and his humorous and courteous answers made the reporters present a good impression Greatly increased.

After everyone got a satisfactory answer, Meng Chuan walked to the venue with a sigh of relief.

As soon as he turned his head, a glass of champagne was brought in front of him.

"Hey, I haven't seen the wind for a long time!" As soon as he saw the visitor clearly, Meng Chuan was refreshed, as if the exhaustion of being entangled by the reporter was swept away.

"Director Meng is unusual now, even I have to'queue' to talk to you." Xie Yifeng said with a smile.

"Don't ridicule me, God knows how annoying I am."

Meng Chuan and Xie Yifeng are the same. Compared with the extravagant entertainment life, they want to plunge into work, film and art. If this circle is not linked to fame and fortune too seriously, it is estimated that they will become that kind of three hundred and sixty a year. Fifteen days, can't wait for a workaholic who has been on the set for three hundred and sixty days.

"How about going for a drink after the end? I know that there is a nice Japanese-style pub near the venue." Xie Yifeng blinked his eyes and whispered to Meng Chuan.

"Okay, then go together later." Meng Chuan couldn't ask for it.

********

After the first day of the trip, the two opened the curtain of the tavern first and then walked in.

"By the way, I forgot to tell you that my friend happened to be there, don't you mind?" Xie Yifeng smiled.

"Don't mind or mind, your friend is not mine..." Meng Chuan was talking, and suddenly saw a young man in a casual low-key dress and a peaked cap sitting next to the short couple in the middle of the tavern.

Meng Chuan's smile suddenly stagnated.

"Hello, Director Meng." Zhou Yuhe smiled, the face under the peaked cap is still beautiful and hard to breathe.

If he is watching TV at the moment, the sense of distance across the screen will keep him awake.

But seeing such a smile in reality is really irresistible at all.

Meng Chuan's face was not embarrassed either. He looked at Xie Yifeng and Zhou Yuhe, who was still in China the day before, and smiled generously: "Dare to love that I came to the Hongmen Banquet today?"

Zhou Yuhe gracefully made a "please" gesture, "Meng's introduction is heavy. There is no "Hongmen Banquet", which is drinking and drinking among friends, please sit down."

Meng Chuan sat down, glanced at Zhou Yuhe, and said meaningfully: "It's just'drinking and drinking between friends', can you fly from China to Tokyo overnight?"

"I can't hide anything from you. I came here this time and I do want to talk to you in detail about the movie "Cats"." Zhou Yuhe said sincerely, he didn't mention how he was contacted by various channels before being contacted by Meng Chuan. Ruthlessly refused, did not mention the appointment time to meet, and was confused by the assistant all kinds of things. It seemed that he didn't know anything about those things and just wanted to see him.

This attitude and opening really avoided a lot of embarrassment.

Meng Chuan's expression slowed down, and he sighed, "What do you want to talk about? I thought my meaning was sufficiently accurate."

Zhou Yuhe pushed the script on Aoji in the direction of Meng Chuan, "Please give me half an hour, and let me introduce this script to you..."

Meng Chuan interrupted: "Okay, I have read the script of "Cat" and know that it is a rare and good script, but still that sentence, I am not interested in literary films."

"Is it not interested, or is it because of "Ghost Story"?"

Meng Chuan's expression changed.

"How do you know "Ghost Biography"?"

Zhou Yuhe showed such a smile as expected.

Before he decided to come, he thought about it carefully. At this time in his previous life, Meng Chuan got five nominations at the Tokyo Film Festival but left empty-handed. The domestic media guys were all ready to press the manuscript to call him "the light of domestic business." I didn't expect such a big oolong.

Who would have thought that it is rare for a commercial film to be selected for five nominations but not even one award?

Meng Chuan suddenly became the object of ridicule by the entire network.

Meng Chuan is also an arrogant person. After Tokyo's defeat, he immediately devoted himself to the production of the larger super IP "The Legend of Ghosts and Demons", just for the sake of shame.

Zhou Yuhe thought for a while, it is very likely that Meng Chuan has already discussed cooperation with the main creative team of "Ghost Biography" at this time, and the situation is even worse, that the two parties have reached a preliminary consensus-

That's why Meng Chuan decided to withdraw their invitation.

However, due to Cai Dong's face, it is hard to say that your play is not accepted because of better commercial scripts, so I can only find an excuse like "not accepting literary films".

But I didn't expect that they were too tightly entangled later. Compared with offending Cai Dong, the business giant, they had to wrong Zhou Yuhe.

"Xuntian" was messed up by Zhou Yu and Huo. Everyone knows that Cai Yuan treats Zhou Yuhe like his own son.

A fledgling new director and a super new star, Meng Chuan guessed that no matter what happened, he would not be able to choose Zhou Yuhe, so he said with confidence that he would not direct unless Zhou Yuhe was replaced——

Director Meng's desire to survive can be said to be very strong.

"Because the investor in "The Legend of Ghosts and Demons" asked me some time ago, hoping that I could play the leading role, but..." Zhou Yuhe smiled, with a hint of sly in his eyes, "I pushed it away-this No less than the A-level production of "Xuntian", and decided to star in "Cat" instead, don't you want to listen to my reasons?"

Meng Chuan stared at Zhou Yuhe fixedly, his expression was a little hesitant and entangled, and his heart seemed to be struggling. In just three seconds, it felt as long as a century.

Finally, just when Zhou Yuhe felt that he was about to lose it, Meng Chuan smiled.

"You are great, I am really curious about you now," Meng Chuan picked up the script on the short table and flipped it twice casually. "Now you have fifteen minutes to prove to me, push It is a wise choice to drop "The Legend of Ghosts and Demons" and switch to "Cats"."

Zhou Yuhe looked at the script in his hand and took a deep breath.

At this time, Xie Yifeng, who was sitting next to him, held his palm, and the heat from his palm instantly calmed him down.

He confidently said: "Then, I will start."
