Chapter 140 Peter Pan
The banquet hall was bustling with guests from all walks of life, laughing and talking in groups of three or three, forming a buzzing voice. The celebrity guests were naturally the most popular conversation subjects, and several adults and stars were surrounded by many people.
But in a corner of the banquet hall outside the bustling bustle, Ye Wei was drinking a glass of cold juice while looking at an oil painting on the wall that he didn't know who drew, and didn't want to participate in the social interaction.
He is not a person who doesn't understand or likes to communicate. Last time he was in almost the same banquet hall, he shocked the audience with his words, but he really didn't have the interest today, and in fact he didn't want to come at all.
"Hello, you are Ye Wei, Lily's boyfriend, right? I am Lily's friend." Suddenly, a girl's voice sounded behind her.
Ye Wei turned his head and saw a brown-haired white girl wearing a capable black robe and knee-length skirt, holding a glass of juice, two slender eyebrows, pursing her lips, and she had no expression. She seemed a little tired. She saw it clearly, but she just grew into this temperament.
He thought, oh, "Matty" Christine Stewart in "The Little Ghost".
I remembered that I had watched a public service advertisement on TV about preventing and controlling campus sexual infringement, so CDF also invited her.
"I know you, Kristen Stewart, I'm very happy to know you." Ye Wei nodded to her and said, "Lily doesn't like to call our relationship a boyfriend or girlfriend. She likes to call her a stable long-term date, but whatever you want, she's a boyfriend or girlfriend."
"She didn't tell me about this." Christine still had no expression and looked at Ye Wei a few times, "I heard from her that you have some opinions on my performance?"
Ye Wei shrugged, "No, I've seen your performances in "Shirt Space" and "The Little Ghost". I think you have a good control over girlishness, when you are gentle and when you are tough, you have your own understanding and interpretation, you are creating roles, not just keeping yourself there, which is great."
Christine was a little stunned. She probably didn't expect to hear such praise from him. She said, "Lily didn't say that."
"I don't know." Ye Wei still remembered what he commented on Lily. Maybe he only talked about the shortcomings. You can't praise another girl in front of one girl.
"She said you think my expression was dull."
"That's like what I said, it would be better if there are more expressions in some scenes."
"But I don't have NG on the set."
Hearing her words, Ye Wei couldn't help but think that this guy was really a thorny person. She clearly said that David Fincher thought it was good. If you think it was bad, wouldn't that be funny? Although he was not in the mood, it doesn't mean that he would be overthrown by a 14-year-old girl, and then said, "But I haven't seen you get the Oscar nomination."
"Ha." Kristen grinned immediately and laughed because he could not refute, "Haha."
"That's it." Ye Wei took a sip of juice, his combat power was really weak.
After a while, he didn't say anything, and Christine didn't say anything, but she didn't walk away, looking at the lively crowd not far away. After a while, she suddenly said, "Looking at your interview and articles, I really didn't realize that you are a person who doesn't like to talk."
"No, my mouth was injured." Ye Wei talked casually, feeling like he had done his previous VIY, and his tongue was casually sarcastic: "It hurts a little to talk to you, it seems like a punishment."
"Haha." Christine was not angry, but her tired breath was eased, her eyes were full of interest, "I have watched your short film and it was very good. You are so young that you have such a directorial talent. I am a little surprised. Lily said it before, and I don't believe it."
"Thank you." Ye Wei smiled. Since the other party showed goodwill, he would not continue to attack sting, or speak casually: "Do you know the 'cocktail party effect'?"
"have no idea."
"It refers to a person's auditory selection ability. Can you hear me, right? But you listen to the loud voices around you, how many people are talking at the same time, why can't you hear the background sound, but you can hear my soundtrack clearly? This is the cocktail party effect, when we focus on a certain sound, we can do it."
"What do you want to say?" Christine rarely asked others this time. This time she really didn't understand the other person's meaning.
Ye Wei spread his hands: "Do I need to repeat a scientific knowledge, the cocktail party effect?"
"No need." She looked at him and said a little nonsense: "You are very CULT."
"When it comes to CULT, I think of "Dinner Game". Maybe we are participating in such a game now, being fooled and ridiculed by someone."
Ye Wei glanced at the people who were laughing at the bright clothes in front of him, "I'm not saying that charity is not good, but how many people are here to do show, including me, I don't want to come but come. Look how happy they are, as if they are saying, 'Thank God for giving us a group of unfortunate children so that we can do charity and hold party.'"
Christine raised her lips and smiled again, appreciating these words, "I don't want to attend, and I don't plan to attend again, it's boring."
"Humans know how to choose to listen to the sound they want to hear. People choose to hear that charity cocktails are good, but they can't hear that they are not bad."
"So that's what you want to say."
"Maybe, maybe not."
At this time, both of them looked at Jeremy Sampter and walked over with a smile on their faces, which completely fulfilled what he had just said.
"Hey!" Sampter smiled and greeted the two of them, introduced himself, staring at Christine, and said enthusiastically that he had watched her movies: "You performed awesomely, awesomely! Very beautiful performance, I really like it."
"Your is not bad, either," Kristen replied.
At present, Sampter is much more famous than Christine. "Peter Pan" failed at the box office, but "The Little Thief" with a production cost of only 12 million yuan was not much better than the North American box office. It is also a loss-making ranks.
However, despite this, Christine's career is still brighter than him. She has two independent films that will be released this year, "No More Silence" (the protagonist) and "The Dark Tide" (the supporting role), the just-finished "Love Forever" (the supporting role), and the science fiction blockbuster "The Brave Game 2" (the protagonist) that will be filmed in August. Sampter is just going to shoot TV series.
So Sampter spoke to her as if he was talking to the president's daughter, and kept firing with his eyes. As for the Asian guy next to him, he had really heard of it a little, but when he thought about the previous entry, he knew what the movie genius was.
"I haven't asked yet, are you?" Seeing that this guy was still in a way, he asked in a vague way, "You and Christine?"
"I am Ye Wei, and we just met." Ye Wei replied.
That's fine. Sampter has done a survey. Christine Stewart's date is Michael Angelo. If you don't have this genius, you can use it well.
He immediately looked apologized and said, "I was so embarrassed just now. I didn't expect to enter the venue with you. I didn't mean it. Those reporters are like this, sometimes very annoying."
"Nothing." Ye Wei said, not a fool, so naturally he could see that Sampte was false and seemed to apologize, but in fact it was more like a show-off.
"What's going on?" Christine became interested.
"It's all my fault." Sampter sighed and drank the drink in his hand, talking about the previous scene-stealing incident, and in a contemptuous tone: "I've seen Ye all, I should have stopped, but I thought... Alas, I'm sorry, Ye, I'll pay more attention next time. By the way, are you an actor too?"
"Not counting, my job is director."
"Director?" Sampter couldn't help laughing when he heard the other party behaved so much, looking at Christine, with a funny smile on his face, "What director?"
If you want to pick up girls, you have to be cool. One way to be cool is to tease a ridiculous and pitiful clown in front of a girl. Here, the "genius" Ye Wei is the clown.
"Film Director." Ye Wei said himself, he could already see the other party's tricks, and he was really not interested in talking to him, "I'll let you talk to you for a while."
"Wait!" Sampter did not let him leave, with a look of surprise and funny expression on his face. He was doing a camera movement in his hand and asked, "You are about the same age as us, so you are a director. It's so amazing. I just want to know what works you have filmed, so I'll go back and have a look."
Ye Wei shrugged and replied: "A short film "Dance of Angels" and a remake of a feature film called "The Marriage is Coming", which has not been released yet."
"Released? You mean, it will be released in theaters?" Sampter was shocked again, "Wow! What schedule? How many opening theaters? What theaters?"
He was very hard to play with coolness, but Christine had no expression, so I really don't know if it worked.
"Yes, none of the ones you asked have been confirmed, but it will be released in theaters."
"Really? That's great. How many box offices do you expect?" Sampter continued to ask, shook his head like a big brother, and sighed: "I tell you that box office is annoying. You have to watch the weekend and watch another week. After it is released, you have to keep watching the latest situation in the rankings... But you shouldn't have these pressures, that's good. There was no expectation at the beginning, but there was no disappointment."
Ye Wei's eyes gathered together. Is this kid thinking that playing Peter Pan, can he humiliate others casually if he has some fame? What a pity, I am not the kind of corrupt body that highlights your wise and powerful spirit. He laughed and said slowly: "When it comes to box office, I'm sorry that the "Peter Pan" you starred in is so miserable that I don't dare to open the rankings to watch.
Do you know why? Why don’t the audience watch it? Because, they just can’t accept you, this stinky dog-shit, playing Peter Pan.”
After saying that, he strode towards the crowd ahead.
Sampter was stunned and furious as soon as he reacted, "Oh, how could he curse people! I'm sorry, I have no malice, he cursed people!" He looked at Christine, "That guy is so rude!"
"But he was right." Christine raised the juice in her hand and walked to the other side.
