There were no shouting at the top of one's lungs, no fierce struggle, but the audience attending the premiere seemed to hear the sound of a girl's pride being shattered.
That kind of despair comes from the bottom of the heart, spreading and infecting everyone.
Tao Tao bit her lip and closed her eyes involuntarily. People have an instinctive desire to escape from such tragedy.
She felt her eyes getting hot and tears couldn't stop flowing out. She closed her eyelids, and at this moment she suddenly felt that she could understand Doukou. If she had a choice, Doukou might also want to come and go cleanly.
An Jiuyu failed and was captured, and Peking was taken by Xiao Zi, crushing the Japanese invaders' conspiracy. Doukou stayed in the An family mansion, waiting for Xiao Zi to come.
The ruined An family had an indescribable bleakness, but she was like a touch of beautiful color, adding a touch of bright color to this dull An family.
She was wearing a fitted cheongsam, and her figure was charming and graceful. When she died in front of Xiao Zi, many people in the theater sobbed softly.
How amazed everyone was at the beginning, how resentful they were towards her in the middle, how sympathetic they were towards her later, and how much pity they felt towards her now.
Nie Dan sighed. He originally thought that it would be awkward for him to watch this scene.
As early as when he first invested in "Beijing Events", he already had a general understanding of the plot of the play.
He also knew what kind of role Jiang Se was going to play in it, and understood what kind of person she was going to play and what kind of experiences she would have.
When he received the invitation, he actually felt a little embarrassed. He recalled the scene when he watched "Rescue Operation" and the scene where Feng Nan was insulted in the play, which shocked him and made him lose interest in the play.
He was so familiar with Feng Nan that it was difficult for him to immerse himself in the play when he saw her playing such a role.
Jiang Se also had a similar scene, but his worries did not come true. Even to Nie Dan's surprise, Lin Xiwen handled that scene just right, allowing people to imagine it on their own, which was far more tragic than the explicit scenes, and was more deeply rooted in people's hearts.
In the movie, when Xiao Zi and Dou Kou met again, it was almost dusk, and the dilapidated state of the An family was already a hint of this.
When Doukou fell down and died in front of Xiao Zi, Nie Dan couldn't help but sigh again.
The revolutionary army won the victory, cheers rang out, Xiao Zi should have wanted to laugh, but for some reason, he remembered what Doukou sang before she died: "Some people say that gold can be scorched, but who pities the long night in the depths of spring? The opera house can lend me a piece of land, so that I can sing the quiet songs of a chaste woman."
Her tone was mournful and moving. When she was alive, he always felt that he hated her to the core. But after she died, he felt that the past grudges were not so clear. He glanced at Doukou and sighed.
The music started and the lights around them came on. Tao Tao was still immersed in the plot of the movie, unable to extricate herself. Nie Dan turned around and was about to talk to Xiang Qiuji, but when he turned around, he saw the person sitting next to him and was shocked:
"Brother Yi, when did you come?"
Pei Yi was wearing a pair of light blue jeans, his brows were tightly furrowed, he was wearing a black sweater and a dark blue jacket, he was supporting his legs with his elbows, looking at the screen very seriously.
"Stop making noise!"
He was still waiting to see Jiang Se's name appear in the cast list when Nie Dan started making a fuss.
After the movie ended, Shu Payen suddenly clapped, and the people around him seemed to be infected by him and started clapping as well. Tao Tao wiped her eyes, fearing that the photographer next to her would notice her crying. But when she turned around, she saw the photographer also wiping his eyes with his sleeves.
She couldn't help wanting to laugh, and when she turned around she felt proud. When the applause rang out, Tao Tao also clapped hard, her palms turning red and hot.
"Beijing Events" is a good movie. Although it is also a film about the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Lin Xiwen captured its depth and delicacy.
Perhaps in terms of the sentiments of nation, country, and righteousness, "Beijing Great Event" cannot compare with the grandeur of "Rescue Operation", but it wins because it has a good screenwriter. Hou Xiling brings every person in the play to life.
When the film's mournful theme song sounded, the main creative staff had not yet come on stage. Shu Peien felt a little surprised. The next moment, after the note on the screen finished scrolling, the camera suddenly turned and showed Hongdou, who was wearing a plain dress, standing in front of Doukou's grave, crying softly:
"sorry."
This belated apology made Shu Payne a little excited!
Unexpectedly, there was an easter egg at the end of the movie. He looked at the time. It was about four minutes and thirty-seven seconds after the movie officially ended. Lin Xiwen actually set an ambush here.
When the film was entered into the competition, he missed it due to time constraints.
This was beyond everyone's expectation. Hongdou was still apologizing, but Doukou of course couldn't hear her apology. This also fitted the theme of the movie that after she escaped, she wanted to save Doukou, but it was too late. She was always late. She escaped from ** and got Xiaozi, but always regretted being late.
After the Easter egg was released, Lin Xiwen led Hou Xiling and the main crew members to the stage. The crew then announced that there would be a raffle and gift cards later, and asked the crew to sing a theme song. Finally, the premiere was successfully completed with applause.
After the ceremony, Jiang Se saw Pei Yi sitting in the VIP seat. He had lost some weight, and his features looked more resolute than they were two months ago.
He stared at Jiang Se without blinking, not even bothering to pay attention to others.
When Jiang Se saw Pei Yi appear, she couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth. Pei Yi looked at her and made a gesture towards the door.
This meant that he would wait for her behind the door after the premiere was over. Jiang Se suppressed the happiness in her heart, nodded slightly, and turned her face away.
The crew members will be interviewed later, and Lin Xiwen has also arranged to give gifts to every media invited this time.
By the time I finished my work, it was almost eleven o'clock.
Tao Tao felt both excited and disappointed.
She was excited because tonight's premiere of "Beijing Events" was worth the trip and it was worth her initiative to apply for overtime to get this opportunity. The movie was very good, and Jiang Se's status in Tao Tao's heart rose.
If her initial liking for Jiang Se came from her etiquette, upbringing, respect and politeness for herself, and her character, then after watching "Beijing Events", Tao Tao was once again impressed by her acting skills. From then on, Tao Tao did not believe that anyone would dare to question the Best Supporting Actress award Jiang Se won at the China Film Festival.
As for the sadness, she was there tonight because there were reporters interviewing at Longxing Studio. Although she arrived at the scene and saw Jiang Se in person, she had no chance to talk to Jiang Se, let alone get closer to the goddess. From beginning to end, she was helping the photographer carry things. (To be continued)
