The grief that had been suppressed at the funeral only burst out at this moment.
The movie gradually ends with the sound of crying, leaving the audience with endless reverie.
When the lights at the premiere came on, many people were still immersed in the atmosphere of the movie and couldn't extricate themselves.
When Jiang Se was nominated for the Best Actress Award at the China Film Festival for her role in About My Love for You, many people questioned whether the competition was unfair.
But now that the movie is released, many people who attended the premiere felt that it was unfair that Jiang Se did not win the Best Actress award at the China International Film Festival for her performance as Zhou Wei in "About I Love You".
The character Zhou Wei she plays in the drama is fresh and lovely. After playing Doukou in "Beijing Events", she is more adept at playing a fresh and clean female lead like Zhou Wei, and she portrays Zhou Wei in different periods very well.
When she first entered the passionate period of love with Zhang Zhen, she looked cute and lovely, and smiled affectionately at her boyfriend when she promised to spend her life with him. Then she became depressed and tired in the later period, and she controlled the sadness just right at her boyfriend's funeral.
Her early expressions were restrained, suppressed, and implicit, which echoed her final breakdown and crying. Compared with Zhou Wei's early character, her final release seemed particularly sad, and it also further incited the emotions of the audience, pulling people into the content of the movie and feeling the heroine's grief and despair.
This is a romantic literary film, but Zhao Rang shot it with a unique flavor.
The media and film critics at the scene were deeply touched. From the expressions on the guests' faces, Zhao Rang knew that "About I Love You" had successfully launched its first hit.
To be honest, Zhao Rang has been holding back on his energy ever since the box office failure of "The 99th Love Letter".
When everyone was laughing at him for re-using Jiang Se as the female lead in his new film, and when many people in the industry were pessimistic about the film, in fact, the temporary replacement of "About I Love You" was not only because Xia Chaoqun and Century Galaxy had an exchange of interests with investors, but he also suffered a lot of pressure.
After all, he used Jiang Se as a gimmick to hype "The 99th Love Letter", which led to the two actresses in the play eventually turning into a farce, affecting the box office.
During the filming, the investors kept a close eye on the project and also had doubts about the film's story itself.
Love movies in the Chinese mainland market have rarely been shot like this. Most of them follow a complete beginning and end with a happy and perfect ending.
But "About I Love You" went the other way, with a tragic beginning as its prologue and a sad ending, which greatly overturned the impression given by previous love movies. Zhao Rang persevered under great pressure.
Now that the premiere of "Caring" was over, the lights came on, and the audience burst into thunderous applause, Zhao Rang breathed a sigh of relief.
Tao Tao's palms were red, swollen and hot from clapping, but she still felt it was not enough.
To this day, Jiang Se's growth is fully reflected in the movie. From her vase-like appearance when she first entered the industry to her current transformation like a cocoon, she is becoming more and more proud of Tao Tao!
The movie will then enter the charity segment, and the distributor will later invite the media who have come this time to dinner and give out gifts.
The pre-sale box office of "About I Love You" was very ideal, so the crew arranged a celebration party and Jiang Se was also going to attend.
By the time the event was over, it was almost eleven o'clock.
When Jiang Se got in the car, he smelled a little bit of alcohol, his cheeks were flushed, and his eyes were a little blurry.
In fact, she didn't drink any alcohol at all. Some people came to toast her at the celebration banquet, but most of the wine was blocked by Xia Chaoqun.
"Drink some water."
Xia Chaoqun took a bottle of mineral water, screwed the lid on it and handed it to Jiang Se:
"You can't touch any alcohol. You should have told me in advance."
She stated this fact calmly. Jiang Se took the water, drank two sips, screwed the lid, and leaned back in the car seat.
Mo Anqi looked at her through the rearview mirror with some concern. She looked a little drunk. In fact, she had only drunk less than two glasses of wine tonight, and at Xia Chaoqun's strong request, the wine she drank was replaced by fruit wine with a lower alcohol content.
But even so, Jiang Se was a little drunk.
"Don't be afraid, Sister Chaoqun, don't we still have you?"
Jiang Se shook his head. Xia Chaoqun was stunned when he heard this.
She was too confident in herself and dared to take the challenge even though she knew she couldn't drink much.
Her beauty is too conspicuous in this industry, and she is still at an extremely young age, so there are many people coveting her.
Although she has a backer and there are rumors in the circle, Pei Yi has been studying abroad for more than a year. People in this industry have short memories and it is inevitable that some of them are daring enough. Tonight, several people were staring at her.
Jiang Se is a smart person and she might be aware of the situation, but she still dared to drink two glasses because she trusted herself.
Xia Chaoqun adjusted the straps of her skirt for her and had a more intuitive understanding of Jiang Se's alcohol tolerance. He decided to keep a closer eye on her next time.
Since signing Jiang Se and giving up Tao Cen, he has been concentrating on taking care of her, arranging beauty care for her, and taking care of her like a flower. He did not want to give her to others to pick, but hoped that she could bloom better in his hands.
"Sister Chaoqun, you are so nice."
Jiang Se put his arms around her and leaned his head on her shoulder.
She seldom acted like a spoiled child in this way, and Mo Anqi in the front seat couldn't help but laugh softly when she saw her like this.
Xia Chaoqun let Jiang Se hold her like this. She was obviously not used to being so close to others. After a while, she reached out and pushed Jiang Se's forehead, still with a cold face:
"Such words are useless to me. You know I prefer to make things clear. I have my tasks, and you have yours."
Her agent's responsibility is to bring her better, expand resources and open channels for her, while her task is to improve her acting skills and improve herself so that she can keep up with her pace.
When one day Jiang Se is satisfied with the status quo and cannot keep up with Xia Chaoqun's pace, Tao Cen will be the next one. Given the example given above, when another partner appears who can satisfy Xia Chaoqun, Xia Chaoqun will ruthlessly abandon Jiang Se.
Xia Chaoqun was also very calm at this moment and spoke very clearly. Mo Anqi felt a little embarrassed, but Jiang Se smiled:
"I see."
She turned to look at Xia Chaoqun:
"I feel the same way."
Xia Chaoqun might abandon himself halfway because he couldn't keep up with her pace, but the same was true for Jiang Se.
If one day, Xia Chaoqun could not keep up with her pace, she might very likely abandon Xia Chaoqun halfway through.
When Jiang Se said this, Xia Chaoqun, who was always cold, serious and unsmiling, suddenly laughed:
"I know that, too."
When Jiang Se acted coquettishly to her before, she did not show any happiness, but now she was not stingy in expressing her love:
"I like you like this."
If Jiang Se was not like this, Xia Chaoqun would definitely like her.
Whether it is the agent or the star, they should be evenly matched. Only if both sides maintain a common strong ambition and vigorous enterprising spirit can they go further together.
The two of them had a few simple conversations, and it was obvious that they were not expressing their feelings to each other, but Mo Anqi, who was sitting in the front seat, inexplicably felt that the atmosphere between Xia Chaoqun and Jiang Se was better.
Xia Chaoqun was originally going to tell Jiang Se to get some sleep, but before she could open her mouth, her phone rang in her bag. She squinted her eyes to look for her phone, and before she took it out and looked at it, Xia Chaoqun saw the words "Pei Yi" flashing on the phone. (To be continued)
