Chapter 637: Mu Weiwei will be our strongest competitor
The premiere press conference at a film festival is usually just a passing scene.
So, after an interview, the screening of the film began.
At the same time that their "Half Dream and Half Awake" began to be screened, another theater not far from their press conference, "Dream of Eternal Life 2", which many people had been looking forward to, also began to be screened.
Covey, the assistant director of "Eternal Dream 2", was curious, so he went to the theater of "Half Dream and Half Awake" to watch the premiere quietly.
originally thought that Mu Weiwei was so young, and the director's work would definitely not be much better.
However, after watching the movie, he felt a deep shock.
This movie is impeccable in terms of the control of the plot rhythm and the storyboard design of each frame.
Even a director like him, who has been in this circle for many years, has to admire it from the bottom of his heart.
As soon as the film ended, he left early and returned to the premiere press conference of "Dream of Eternal Life 2".
The screening here has just ended, and the chief director and Ling Yan are being interviewed by the media, and then talking to some film critics.
It wasn't until dark that I returned to my hotel.
Assistant director Ke Wei thought of the "Half Dream and Half Awake" that made him unable to calm down for a long time after watching it, and still went to the chief director James and Ling Yan.
"I heard, how about you went to see "Half Dreaming and Half Waking"?" James asked amusedly.
Although he only served as an assistant director in "Eternal Dream 2", he is already a well-known director in his own right.
However, I went to see the work directed by a little girl who had never studied film and was only nineteen years old.
"'Half Dream' exceeded my expectations, and I feel like it will be a strong competitor in the same period of film." Assistant director Covey confessed his thoughts.
After watching that movie, he felt a sense of crisis, a sense of crisis for "Eternal Dream 2".
Although, he himself can't believe that such a well-made movie is directed and starred by a young actor at the age of nineteen.
"Covey, you're too ambitious." James was unimpressed.
"James, you really should go see that movie, you're going to be ashamed of yourself." Covey said.
Yes, shame.
They have been in this industry for so many years, and they can be regarded as some famous directors.
But he didn't make such an impactful and aura movie, and he felt ashamed after watching it.
"Shame?" The more James listened, the more outrageous it became, and asked curiously, "What did they shoot, and you have such a high rating?" ”
"It is a dark suspense film that is completely different from "Dream of Eternal Life", and this movie will definitely be our biggest competitor." Assistant director Covey said with a solemn face.
Director James said funny.
"You don't know, this little director is now being boycotted by the whole people because he beat an actress in China, and most of the films have been canceled."
"Cancelled?" Assistant director Covey was surprised.
Ling Yan, who had not spoken, said casually.
"That's only temporary."
She has Fu Hanzheng's support behind her, even if she is boycotted by the whole people, as long as Fu Hanzheng says a word, she can still turn the tables.
James was still curious about what the movie was about, and asked Covey.
"Tell me, what did that little director shoot?"
Covey thought for a while and said, "It's about the imaginary world of a mentally ill person, and there is also a heart transplant, but it was the heroine who killed her sister and dug up the other party's heart to survive......"
When Ling Yan heard this, her hand holding the water shook, and her face changed in an instant.
