Chapter 98
After arriving at the hotel, I rested for one night and took a closer look at the process of the next day.
There was a dinner before the premiere of "Mysterious Seeds". The main purpose was to let the main actors and senior executives of the crew contact the investors before the second part started, and try to fool them to continue to spend money in the second part. I was a little dizzy when I looked at the names of the investors, but the first stop in Berlin means that the largest investors were basically gathered around this place. He patiently looked at the names of the previous major investors, and then when he was ranked second, he saw a name that almost made him throw the folder in his hand on Fang Yu's face: mond.
For a moment, the face of the young man with black hair became very ugly.
He had just finished taking a shower and sat on the bed. He stood up and came to the floor-to-ceiling window. He looked out of the forty-story hotel. In the heavy snow that had never stopped since morning, the entire night view of Berlin looked like a starlight... The young black-haired man standing by the floor-to-ceiling window was completely unintentional to appreciate it. He could clearly hear the sound of a drum hitting in his chest. As Fang Yu asked him blankly, his brows became tighter and tighter. He turned around and leaned against the floor-to-ceiling window: "Fang Yu, call to ask the relevant staff, I want to know what the top three investors are--"
Fang Yu also frowned: "What's wrong?"
He took a deep breath, without explaining, just said, "Go and ask."
Fang Yu was silent for a moment, and then seemed to remember some things - such as what Jiang Chuan said before Jinran's debut in a teenager meeting - although Fang Yu didn't know whether those things really existed or what was going on at that time, seeing Jinran's reaction at this time, the expression on his face became a little subtle: "Who do you want to ask which one should I say it directly."
"The second one." Jinran sat down on the sofa, and looked extremely tired and wiped his face, "Hopefully, I'm over-necked."
Fang Yu picked up the folder he threw on the bed and took a look, then closed it and said slowly: "Although I don't know what happened, I want to say that Mond's surname is still a bit bad in Germany..."
Halfway through his speech, he saw the young black-haired man sitting on the sofa looking at him with an unprecedented silence. He paused for a moment, and finally called and asked the relevant staff implicitly what Jinran wanted to know. The other party seemed very happy that Jinran took the initiative to understand the situation. He said a lot of joy until fifteen minutes later, until Fang Yu hung up the phone, and then told Jinran who looked at him nervously: "It is said that it is a big family in the machinery industry."
He sighed carefully.
Seeing that he relaxed, Fang Yu didn't know why he had also followed his heart hanging high before and said, "Who do you know that Mond?"
"Actually, I don't know," Jinran frowned suddenly, "but probably not doing serious things, although I'm very rich...ah, maybe I'm too tense, it's not a big deal."
At this moment, the cautious voice sounded a little deliberately understatement - he has never been a good actor in life, especially when it comes to things he cares about... At this time, he saw the complicated emotions on his face, but Fang Yu didn't know what to say to comfort him a little, so he had to stand up and say goodbye, leaving the young black-haired man alone to calm his mood.
...
The next day, I got up early in the morning to prepare, and followed the other actors to review the premiere ceremony process, have lunch, make a styling, and then change into the formal outfit I had to wear at the dinner. The whole day of busyness made Jinran temporarily forget the irritable things that bothered him last night that had almost most of the night...
It was afternoon in a blink of an eye.
The sky turned from sunny to cloudy, and the clouds were thick. Some staff members sighed that they might snow again at night. They didn't know if the event could go smoothly. I was quite surprised that they could express such concerns directly. If they were in China, which was more concerned about superstition, the staff who said such words before the premiere ceremony would have to face the fate of being dragged out and beaten up.
Jinran, who was clean and neatly, followed the crew from the hotel to the giant cinema at the premiere ceremony.
In winter, Berlin is much colder than in J or G city, especially in the morning when the sun is out, the snow on the street begins to melt. Even if it is a short five or six minutes from getting off the bus to the venue, Jinran's frozen teeth trembled. Of course, it is not ruled out that it is the reason for his excitement. Because he sat in the back of the car, he saw the fans waiting outside the cinema from afar. Of course, Jinran had seen this attitude before, but now he was standing on the street with strange Western faces. They held high in their hands with German signs that Jinran had not had time to see clearly what they wrote, and excitedly called the names of their favorite actors.
When several starring actors walked down the car in front, the shouts of the crowd became more enthusiastic than before. Looking around, there were almost everyone on both sides of the street, all kinds of people, young, middle-aged, and even old people. Everyone stretched their necks and stared at each car driving in front of them, with excitement flashing in their eyes, as if they were gift boxes piled under the Christmas tree, and surprises would pop out from it at any time.
Jinran sat in the car, looking at Tom John Josen who got out of the car generously waved to the movie fans and caused a commotion. He moved his butt with some uneasy. Before that, he had easily communicated and talked with director Chris in English. Now he saw him suddenly quieting like a fragment, Chris also keenly captured the uneasiness of the young black haired man beside him. He laughed and patted Jinran's shoulder, telling him not to worry, because of the role of "God's Source of Redemption", he already had a large number of fans on social networking sites abroad. When the itinerary was announced, a considerable number of people shouted that they would definitely come to the scene to see what "God" looked like.
Chris said as he seemed to be amused by himself, and Jinran laughed dryly, and his heart was already in a state of great turmoil. In fact, his soul was so flying that he didn't know where he was.
At this time, their car had heard the destination. At this time, the two protagonists had entered the cinema surrounded by security guards. The commotion before the scene was slightly controlled - although it was still lively in fact, for Jin Ran, it was simply terrible silence.
Hearing the sound of the security guard outside reaching out to open the car door, he was sitting in the car full of his mind, "What if there is no cheer?" "What if the reporter is too lazy to press the shutter?" "What if everyone looks at him for no reason and doesn't know who he is?" "What if the scene is in a sharp contrast and makes him embarrassed and phobia?" "Damn Claire Company doesn't invite some water army to come for Mao, I can pay for it by myself." A series of barrage such as "Are you going to see me?"
Until he stomped on his face with a stiff smile on his face.
He heard that the crowd outside seemed to have really quieted a little.
Jinran's mind was "over" and he said "It's over". However, before he could trigger his embarrassment phobia, he raised his hand and scratched his meticulous hair with a little at a loss. However, he did not expect that after he finished this action, he saw a young wheat-colored girl covering her face with one hand in shock, and then pointed at him with the other hand. After a few seconds of silence, a shocking girl scream suddenly sounded in Jinran's ear: "saatgut——!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Jinran was slightly stunned because he knew he was going to come here to do some publicity, so he still knew the pronunciation of this word, which means "seed".
When the girl screamed, Jingran's heart that had been deeply buried deep into the cold sea bottom rose a little, thinking to herself, "Damn it, there is still a recognized girl, you are an angel." He immediately turned his head and waved to the girl who called out the word - and what he didn't expect was that after such a wave action, the atmosphere at the scene seemed to suddenly explode, and the crowd became excited. More and more people first showed the shocked expression of the girl and were silent and began to scream the same word -
“saatgut!”
“saatgutsaatgutsaatgutsaatgut—”
“saatgut!ran!”
People simply repeat the last word of the word that is already carefully named. When the voice begins to be added one after another, it is more like they want to tear open the gloomy sky directly!
Jinran was really shocked now.
Compared to the situation at this time, the silence that moment before seemed more like everyone hadn't come back to their senses.
When he walked to the red carpet in the middle of the crowd, everyone's reaction was no less than his previous enthusiasm for the protagonists. The cameras in the reporters' hands were "crackling", and various flashes lit up on his face. The posture was definitely no less than any experience he had in China on the red carpet.
But this time, Jinran clearly knew that the treatment was completely caused by his mother's face!
...After all, there is no way to tell much of his "acting skills" in those short spoilers.
The powerful post-system of Claire Company made even Jinran himself feel that the scene he splashed out from the water was a little thrilling - but he never expected that foreign movie fans would buy it so much.
Surrounded by the cheers of everyone, Jingran walked into the cinema with a smile with his head raised and his chest. When he arrived at a place where there were no reporters or outsiders, the first thing he did was to curl his smile and inexplicably raised his hand and touched his face: Could it be that without him knowing that he had suddenly become a face that was fascinating like a flower and a jade that fascinated all living beings?
This stupid move finally ended when he turned around and saw his reflection on the magnificent pillar of the cinema. He put down his hand with a embarrassed face. At this time, director Chris also walked into the cinema. Seeing the young black-haired man standing there with an open space and unable to come back to his senses, he laughed loudly and walked up and patted Jingran's shoulders and "slap" sounded: "Yes, you read that right, this earth-shaking popularity - we foreigners just like your appearance, but you are much more charming than you imagined. The task of fooling those investors to spend money tonight will be handed over to you!"
Chris's voice was a little loud. This sound made the male and female protagonists Sara Minerva and Tom John Josen not far away hear it, and they both turned their heads and smiled at Jinran. Sara had learned somewhere and clasped her hands together and made a "please, please" action with him. Everyone around them laughed kindly, and Jinran stood there, feeling that she was standing on the marble floor of the cinema lobby, and then she was about to float to the ceiling again.
He couldn't help but gently tilt the corners of his lips and circled around the place. Finally, when everyone entered the banquet hall one after another, he took out his cell phone as if he thought of something and sent a text message to Jiang Chuan: I'm here, the situation is good, and many people actually recognize me hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
After sending the text message, Jinran wanted to put the phone away, but before he could put it back in his pocket, he felt the phone vibrate. He quickly grabbed it and looked down, and found that it was Jiang Chuan who quickly replied: I recognized it when I stared at your butt?
Jinran looked dark and didn't know if this guy was speaking yellow. He quickly replied "Your sister". After thinking about it, he simply called Jiang Chuan's phone directly. The phone rang twice and was picked up. The man on the other end of the phone lazily "feeded" him. Jinran didn't give him a chance to talk more and immediately asked, "When will you arrive?"
...
At this time, Jinran didn't know that in the office about fifteen floors above his head, the wide armchair turned around. The man sitting on the sofa slid his armchair to the floor-to-ceiling window behind him. He lowered his head and looked at the crowded movie fans downstairs and the vehicles of various crews. He smiled, raised his hand to tidy up his cuffs and then replied lazily: "It's on the road, but there's a traffic jam on the road. I guess I'll be late... Half an hour after the banquet starts, those who hold the guest card can enter one after another. What are you anxious about-"
As soon as the man finished speaking, the office door was suddenly opened from outside. Yesterday, the middle-aged man called "Bill" walked in and was about to speak, but was stopped by the person sitting on the sofa with a look. He had to stop immediately and watch the man talk to the phone in Chinese with a patient smile on his face. After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone and the smile immediately disappeared from his face. There was no trace of emotion in his azure blue eyes: "What are you doing?"
"Young Master, everyone in the crew is here, and the next time is the banquet-"
"I'll go again in half an hour."
Bill was slightly stunned: "But Master, half an hour later it will be the time for the guests holding the invitation letter to enter the venue-"
"So I have to give way to them?"
The man asked calmly, Bill was stunned again, and immediately realized that he seemed to have said something wrong, so he bowed slightly and turned and exited the room.
...
Jinran urged Jiang Chuan on the phone to move quickly and hung up the phone. He held his cell phone and chatted with Jiang Chuan for a while. Until Director Chris came over and said he wanted to introduce other producers to him, he then took a glass of red wine from the passerby and followed him to do the serious business.
The producer's name is Mandello, an American, and a trump card in Claire's company. It is rumored that the films he has never failed. It is because of his pride that Mr. Mandello is also a well-known and strange person in the Hollywood film industry. People who have a good relationship with him say he is good. When people who want to be unfamiliar with this name, they can't help but frown and say, "It's not that easy to get along with."
Jin Ran had never had direct contact with this producer before. When he suddenly introduced him to him, he was worried that this person would be difficult to get along with. However, he didn't expect that when he came in front of him, he realized that Mandello was actually an ordinary middle-aged man with a slightly fat figure. When he saw Jin Ran, he raised the wine glass in his hand with him kindly and proactively. The first sentence was: "This is our mysterious seed, Chris, did you hear the hysterical screams of the girls just now? I knew that my insistence was correct."
Jinran was slightly stunned, and then quickly showed the shyness he should have... Then after the conversation between Chris and Mandelo, he realized that the person who insisted on finding him was Mandelo. Mandelo accidentally saw Jinran's early movie "The Legend of Dragon and Wolf". In the film, Jinran played a gentle and indifferent boy. At that time, he was just a small supporting role. The character even died in a barren mud grass roots in the rainstorm. It was such a very embarrassing scene, but Mandelo saw it at first sight, and felt that the herdsman boy in the film was very suitable to play the role of "God's Source of Redemption"...
I was a little embarrassed to hear this statement, because he was just in his early twenties when he was acting in that movie. Although he also won a small award for that role, at least in his opinion, his acting skills were not very mature at that time.
"For Hollywood, your acting skills are also not mature enough - but that doesn't mean that this is a bad thing." Mandello said, "We need fresh blood instead of those old fryers always active on the screen. The audience needs freshness, not always guaranteed box office and then follow the steps... You see, it's because of your 'unripe enough' acting skills that make you withdraw from "Mysterious Seed: Origins". You are like someone living in another dimension in that world, not the same as the protagonists..."
“…”
I think this guy is talking nonsense seriously.
But because he spoke very seriously and all the good words, Jinran finally chose to believe him, smiled and took a sip of the red wine in his hand. When the fragrant wine slid across his throat, he smiled and said, "It seems that Mr. Mandelo is quite satisfied with my performance in the first ten seconds. If there is still a chance to star in the next second-"
"Of course there is." Director Chris smiled, "If you change roles now, those outside the door who scream for you will overturn Claire."
I was so happy that I laughed loudly, and at this time, seeing that the topic was extended to the second part, Mandelo told him that the second part was scheduled to start filming in May this year. There will be more scenes in the next part than the first part, but there are no lines. The voice from beginning to end is just a shout standing on the cliff-
It’s so embarrassing. In fact, characters without lines are more demanding for actors than having lines. All emotions must be expressed perfectly if they want to express them. Otherwise, in the eyes of the audience, you will easily become a walking corpse, and people don’t even know what you are doing.
Learn to speak with your eyes.
Thinking of this, I feel a little tired.
But before getting the script, I was worried that these things would seem too redundant, so Jinran had to stop thinking about them for the time being, because at this time, Mandello sent Chris away in a few words, and then pulled Jinran aside with a mysterious look on his face. When he was sure that there were not so many people around, he said astonishingly: "Yes, I will send you a new movie invitation."
Jingran: "……………………………”
What?
Mandelo: "I'm tired of the enthusiasm that people flock to the name of 'Producer Mandelo', which makes me feel like I'm at a bottleneck and cannot get a new breakthrough. I don't even know whether my skills have improved or not retreated over the years-"
Be cautious: "..."
This American is so bored.
Jingran: "Sorry, sorry, I don't quite understand yet, so Mr. Mandello means..."
Mandelo: "In October this year, I will direct a new work in anonymous form. This work will enter Hollywood as a new producer and win awards without any prerequisite reputation. If it doesn't sound, it will make a big splash—"
Be cautious: "..."
It seems this person is crazy.
Mandello shook his eyes: "Because he is a new producer, he is not so restricted when doing things. I can boldly try something I like - for example, I have long wanted to make a movie without the heroine on the side, it is all men's world, navigation, treasure, and dreams - you can play the male protagonist."
Jinran feels that he has grasped the point: "…one of the many male protagonists?"
"Male Pole," Mandello changed his appearance in front of others and smiled like a child. He raised his hand and patted Jingran's shoulder and said happily, "Oh, the script is OK. He is also a flexible young man with black hair, unrestrained, like a monkey jumping up and down, and is the best for you."
I carefully considered whether this guy was attacking him personally for three seconds.
But the person in front of him was his parents who entered the international market. At this time, he could no longer care about so much. He nodded wildly without any moral integrity and said "yesido". Mandelo was so happy to see him cooperate so much. The two stood in the corner of the banquet hall and were full of joy and were full of joy, as if this movie was not even confirmed. It was made by an old producer wearing a vest and starring a completely newcomer in the international film industry. It had won the Hollywood award.
But at this time, their hearts were indeed filled with a beautiful blueprint for the future.

Jinran never expected that he would get such a reward by swaying around the banquet hall. He was talking to this famous and a little naughty producer at this moment. He didn't even know when the door of the banquet hall behind him was opened again. He just felt a cool breeze blowing from behind him, and he subconsciously shivered.
Then he caught a glimpse of the crowd in the banquet hall stopping and looking to the door.
He subconsciously turned his head and glanced, but he had only time to see the waiter pulling the door open and respectfully invite a man in a white suit to come in. The man was tall and had golden hair, but because he was surrounded by bodyguards at this moment, Jin Ran couldn't even see what he looked like.
When the man walked in from outside the door, he smelled a faint fragrance of roses. At this time, he turned his head back with no interest, but just thought quickly in his heart, "probably the bouquet of flowers brought to the actress by a young man," so that when the fragrance of flowers became closer and closer from behind him, he never turned around-
Until Rodman, who was standing in front of him, suddenly stopped talking and looked behind him in surprise.
Blinking strangely.
The next second, a large handful of red roses in his arms were suddenly stuffed into his arms. In his shock, the person who had arrived behind him had stopped his shoulders and quickly bent down and kissed on the lips of the black-haired young man who was stiff in place.
Chapter completed!
