The information collected by Xia Chaoqun also shows the preferences of the judges of this year's French Film Festival. In addition, the performance of Alice, the heroine of this year's "Friday", was also very outstanding. During the film screening, Jiang Se also watched this movie, which was also very exciting.
Alice plays a woman with split personality. Normally, she is an easy-going and kind girl, always willing to help others, making everyone around her like her very much.
But for such a girl, another personality always appears every Friday night and kills a man.
Her other personality knew nothing about this until the disappearance of these people aroused the suspicion of the police, who then unraveled the mystery and found the heroine.
Alice has superb acting skills in this movie and can switch between two different personalities at will. In Jiang Se's opinion, she is indeed a big competitor of his at this French Film Festival.
Because she was going to act in "Fairy Tale" later, she went to the cinema to watch "Friday" twice during the film festival, observing Alice's little movements in the details.
"I think Alice's acting is good, and she has a good reputation recently." After watching the movie "Friday", European and American media praised her acting skills and believed that she brought the female lead in the film to life.
Jiang Se spoke this in a calm tone.
Xia Chaoqun paused with the documents in his hand and looked up at her. She was wearing a white shirt with lotus leaf sleeves and a hip skirt. Even though there were only two people talking in the room in the hotel, she sat properly with her calves together and her posture elegant. There was nothing wrong with her.
It was probably because she didn't win the grand prize at the film festival two years ago because of the failure of "Devil", so she had a certain psychological tolerance for this situation. So when she said that she couldn't win the award, she seemed very calm and not disappointed.
"I don't think so. Being able to make people think about acting while watching a movie is actually a kind of drama in itself."
In comparison, Jiang Se's role as Tang Jing in "A Glimmer of Hope" makes it almost impossible for people to spare time to think about anything else.
This can be regarded as a kind of particularly protective compliment from Xia Chaoqun. She rarely talks about such things, let alone praising Jiang Se in various ways. Jiang Se was a little surprised and raised her head:
"Sister Chaoqun is praising me?"
Xia Chaoqun ignored her and said seriously:
"But the judges love these rich experiences and acting skills."
When she said this, she put the cap on the pen in her hand, placed it on the document, crossed her arms over her chest, and stared at Jiang Se:
"What happened recently?"
She said with great confidence, "Before the film festival, Xueli said you received a call from Dai Jia."
During her time in France, although Jiang Se also promoted "A Glimmer of Hope" with Zhang Jing'an and Liu Ye, and also accepted many media interviews and watched other movies, Xia Chaoqun still noticed that something was wrong with her:
"You spend a lot of time daydreaming. When you don't have work, you'll read a book. But the book you've been reading recently, Modern Chinese History, has been seven or eight days, and you haven't even turned over twenty pages."
This progress is already very slow for Jiang Se.
She is preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination. She is usually very self-disciplined in her studies and spends her free time memorizing and reading books. Recently, this situation can be said to be very abnormal.
Jiang Se was very surprised when she heard what Xia Chaoqun said and subconsciously looked up at her.
Maybe it was too unexpected, she lost some of her usual composure, her lips slightly parted, and her expression seemed a little innocent.
Xia Chaoqun rarely saw her with such an expression, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "Normally you can read about 30 to 40 pages a day, and you will tick the knowledge you have memorized with a pen."
But she has nothing recently, so it is unknown whether she has taken the twenty pages she turned to heart or not.
Jiang Se didn't expect that Xia Chaoqun had seen all her subtle actions. She couldn't help licking the corner of her mouth. After hesitating for a while, she decided to confess to Xia Chaoqun:
"Something has happened recently, and there may be some trouble."
She told her about Dai Jia's last phone call to tell her that Feng Nan was looking for someone to investigate her. Xia Chaoqun crossed his arms, nodded, and motioned for her to continue:
"Sister Chaoqun, you are from Hong Kong, you should have heard that Feng Nan was kidnapped when he was young."
Xia Chaoqun nodded again. This incident caused quite a stir in the upper class society at that time. Although many media magazines did not dare to report it because of Feng Zhongliang's identity, it was no secret in the celebrity circle.
At that time, Feng Nan's parents were ordered by Feng Zhongliang to reflect on their mistakes for a long time. It was not until Feng Nan underwent psychological rehabilitation in Hong Kong for a period of time and was taken to the imperial capital by Feng Zhongliang that the house arrest was lifted.
Because of this incident, the woman around Feng Qinlun was driven away, and she turned to the arms of Xia Chaoqun's uncle and married into the Xu family.
Jiang Se is from the imperial capital, so it may not be a coincidence that he knows this Hong Kong secret from many years ago.
When the kidnapping happened, Jiang Se was less than a year old. When she mentioned this matter, there might be follow-up.
When Jiang Se said this, he had actually already guessed it in his heart. With Xia Chaoqun's intelligence, he probably had already guessed something.
She took a deep breath and blurted out the words:
"Sister Chaoqun, one of the kidnappers who kidnapped Feng Nan was named Jiang. He is my..."
She lowered her eyelids when she said this: "... Feng Nan asked someone to investigate me, maybe there are some clues."
She mentioned the scene on the day of the premiere of "Lost City" downstairs in the cinema, where she had an argument with Feng Nan and Feng Nan tried to grab her but was pushed away by a man. "That person might be..."
Jiang Se didn't say anything else.
The room was silent, and the atmosphere seemed frozen for a moment.
Under the light, the fine dust rolling in the air was clearly visible. Jiang Se guessed that Xia Chaoqun might be a little angry.
After all, no one would feel good if they encountered such a thing.
Jiang Se knew very well how bad the impact would be on him if Feng Nan found out his identity and made a big deal out of it.
Especially at this critical juncture, she also filmed a kidnapping-type movie like "A Glimmer of Hope". The higher the success of the movie and the wider its popularity, the more serious the consequences will be when Feng Nan makes trouble in the future.
She was waiting for Xia Chaoqun to get angry, and was prepared to explain everything and find a way to resolve the matter after she got angry.
But she didn't expect that after waiting for a long time, she didn't hear Xia Chaoqun's angry accusations. She even sat on the sofa opposite her. Jiang Se looked over and saw her crossed long legs, appearing calm.
"It's just such a small matter, but it makes you uneasy!"
This serious gold medal agent who has been in the industry for many years and is highly valued by Luo Yin was not angry as Jiang Se had expected. She did not act as if she had just heard about a huge trouble. It was as if Jiang Se had just complained to her about a trivial matter like the food tonight was not delicious.
Jiang Se raised her head, her eyes were still calm. This unusual calmness seemed to lack some humanity at times, but at such a critical moment, it was particularly important. (To be continued)
