The Martial Artist Turned Movie Mogul-Chapter 959 - 958. How about using it as a mobile phone screensaver?
Chapter 959: 958. How about using it as a mobile phone screensaver?
"I’m talking about the story, how is the story?"
Tang Shu had to admit, this tragic and tension-filled story deeply moved her. Even though she had never lived through That Era, she could still feel their hardships and hopes for the future through the movie.
It was a kind of faith, a faith beyond life and everything else.
Jing Yu paused, "I like this ending."
"...Huh?"
This was certainly an unexpected answer, considering that the whole movie theater was cursively berating the director.
The person in question didn’t reply as to why; when the lights in the cinema lit up again, Jing Yu naturally took Tang Shu’s hand and headed outside.
"By the way, did you get that photo?"
"Let me see, I was given a private email address... Got it. Do you want me to send it to you?"
"Mhm."
The next moment Jing Yu heard a notification sound from his phone, and the photo was in his hands.
But at this time, the group photo wasn’t just appearing on the two’s phones; it was also featured in a short video posted by a young girl, with the caption:
[Other people’s love stories, yet another day of being force-fed dog food.]
[PS: Lucky that this picture-perfect couple was easy-going, they even let me stick around and sent me a copy!]
Since the young girl associated her video with the hot keyword "Typhoon," it quickly spread to interested people via big data, and suddenly a wave of "Guess who’s in the picture" swept across the internet.
"Eh? These two look so familiar, I must have seen them somewhere..."
"Eh? They do look familiar, I’m sure I know this man, but who could it be?"
"No, no, no, it’s not just the man, the two of them together give me a strong sense of familiarity, I must have seen them before!"
"Of course the male lead looks familiar, he’s always in the newspapers and hot news, right? This is President Jing of Cloudscape Group, that gold bachelor who reigns over the business world!"
"Are you kidding me above? Call him a gold bachelor? Please remove the word ’bachelor,’ thanks, I can smell the sour scent of love even through the screen..."
"Holy shit, now that you mentioned Cloudscape Group, I remember! Aren’t these the two who made the game stall owner cry at the temple fair a year (or two) ago!!!"
"It’s them, it’s them, it’s really them! That couple with the amazing shooting skills, the ones who looked like they came to show off!"
"Oh right, right, it’s that couple who took away all the large plushies from the event, the plushie-obsessed couple!!!"
...
Netizens quickly dug out the photos from that year and, by comparing them side by side, they were even more certain. Jing Yu’s identity had already been dug up by netizens, stirring up even more excitement.
"Oh my~~ it’s been over a year, and they’re still so close, truly the boyfriend and girlfriend from someone else’s family..."
"Someone else’s boyfriend (girlfriend), my jealousy is distorting my face, pah!"
"Leaving everything else aside, I just want to know who this girl is. Can some knowledgeable person spoil it for me, I’m really curious!"
"To be walking with the President of Cloudscape Group, she must also be from a matched family background, definitely a daughter of a prominent family!"
"What kind of prominent daughter needs to wear a mask when going out? And she wore it both times, she must be a well-known woman!"
The netizens speculated wildly, dragging out all the famous unmarried girls in the capital, and even enthusiastically starting a voting thread below.
As for the protagonist of the incident, Tang Shu, she received a professionally retouched photo from her boyfriend.
"Isn’t this the photo from just now?"
Upon closer inspection, it didn’t seem quite right; the background of the photo had been blurred, making the two of them stand out even more, and she actually read a romantic artistic conception from the photo.
Who knew her boyfriend was also a Photoshop master?
Jing Yu suggested, "How about using it as the phone screensaver?"
He was already a step ahead in setting the picture not only as the lock screen but also as the home screen.
Tang Shu hesitated for two seconds and then nodded decisively.
The man standing opposite her had laughter... and depth in his eyes.
***
On the last day of this month, "Typhoon" ended perfectly with a box office of 3.6 billion.
After that, it transitioned from the big screen to the small screen, seamlessly linked to various major video websites, which delighted the workers who never had the chance to go to the cinema.
"So you sent the film "Typhoon" to the Film Association today?"
"Yes, any problem with that?"
Xie Yunqing replied very calmly, leaving the producer sitting opposite him choking.
"No objections, no objections. Who am I to push back? You’re the director; you do whatever you want."
Although he said so, the producer’s heart was not really on the same page, secretly lamenting the loss of several billion in box office revenue, while also cursing his friend under his breath.
This idiot, why the rush? It’s only a matter of time before "Typhoon" gets nominated for awards, what’s the difference between now and later?
The award ceremony was to be held in January, as if he had forgotten the date!
Director Xie glanced at him indifferently, "I know what you’re thinking, don’t assume I don’t know anything just because you curse me in your heart."
"...No, you’ve got it wrong."
"I intend to bring into view earlier."
Xie Yunqing said, "This film is a gift I’m giving to an elder, and I don’t want it to become too commercialized. Once some things enter the discussion circle of capitalists, they often lose their original meaning."
This explained his decision, "I expect ’Typhoon’ to win several major awards, so that it can be more representative in the history of film."
The producer was extremely surprised, "But what difference would delaying half a month make? Won’t the film be judged just the same?"
"Of course, it makes a difference. Do you think the leads of ’Typhoon’ could possibly be nominated for Best Actor and Best Actress?" freёwebnoѵel.com
"Best Actor might be possible, but forget Best Actress. In fact, Madam Qi’s character is supposed to exist in dependence on the male lead."
"No,"
Xie Yunqing held the opposite view, "You have to understand that this is a tragedy. The death of Madam Qi is the crowning touch in this movie, and her sacrifice will make her more memorable to the audience."
The producer looked at him for a long while without saying a word, finally extending his thumb to show his admiration.
He really hadn’t thought of it that way...
"Wait, but the several well-received films you shot before were never delayed from coming off the shelves, how do you explain that?"
"Some things are better left unsaid when understood, you need to learn when to stop while you’re ahead."
"?!"
Xie Yunqing’s friend wanted to throw him into a vacuum cleaner to dry out his waterlogged brain!
