Movies have the power to make people laugh and cry, just like life.
The bright moonlight shines all over Los Angeles, and the fruity fragrance of the coral trees floats in the sea breeze, gently blowing in the Brentwood area and drifting into the boys' bedroom on the second floor of the Ye family through the window.
"Uh no" Ye Wei, who was sleeping soundly, seemed to be talking in his sleep, frowning slightly.
¡¡
The apartment buildings to the north of the University of Southern California Park campus are brightly lit and the voices of students can be heard faintly.
This is a residence provided by the school to senior undergraduates and graduate students. It is very close to the campus and within the 24-hour patrol range of the campus police. It is safe enough and has better conditions than the school dormitories. The rent is about the same, so the annual rent is Sources are very popular.
One of the double apartments is also bright.
The apartment is very simple. Apart from the simple tables, chairs, etc. that are already there, there is no furniture added by the residents.
But this is obviously the territory of students from the School of Film and Television Arts, which is the best subject at USC and the number one in the United States.
A large LCD TV that is seriously inconsistent with the surrounding environment is hung on the wall. Various photographic equipment and equipment are placed everywhere, including some homemade gadgets, such as blackout cloth, diffuser and other lighting equipment.
There is a huge black chopping board hanging on the other wall, which is covered with sheets of colorful label paper. There are also some pictures, colored and sketched just like the CIA headquarters, except for the information on it. Not the whereabouts of Bin Laden, but some script clues, script spin-off sheets, storyboards, production strips things like that.
There was a "crackling" sound of typing on the keyboard in the hall, which did not disturb Ye Wei who was standing by the window.
With a calm expression on his face, he looked at the framed family photo in his hand. On the front lawn of the former Brentwood home, his father, mother, sister, Toto, and him all smiled brightly.
The wind outside the window blew in, and a chill suddenly arose in him, causing his face that was no longer young to wrinkle even tighter. The past came flooding back like a tide, and his eyes were filled with sadness.
"'This is fate, not my choice.' No, no, such lines are too boring"
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of the office computer table next to the chopping board, a white boy is sitting. He has messy brown curly hair and a pair of big dark circles, looking at the documents on the computer screen with a look of distress on his face.
Ryan Patience, another resident here, is a senior majoring in "Film and Television Screenwriting."
"Well uh, 'I just give my heart to God and let God guide me.' No, that's not right! Heroes don't talk like that, only priests do But, are you right?"
"Brother Wei?"
When he didn't get a response, he turned around and saw Ye Wei's dazed look. He couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. After being his roommate for almost four years, he knew Ye Wei's story clearly, but it was irreversible. But he hasn't come out yet, but that's his close relative!
¡°Man, you gotta put it down,¡± he muttered, turning back and continuing to struggle with the line.
The silence of the apartment did not last long before it was broken by the ringtone of a cell phone. It was Ye Wei's cell phone. As he came back to his senses and connected it, the ringtone disappeared.
"Good evening, Jack, what's the matter?"
"Weige, yes, you knowhow should I put it, you know, about the director selection of "Love in the Midsummer""
Listening to the other party's hesitant tone, Ye Wei frowned and walked towards his desk, "What's wrong?"
"Love in the Midsummer" is a small-budget non-guild independent film project, a youth romantic comedy with a budget of US$500,000. It is best to enter theaters in the future, but its main goals are TV distribution and the DVD market, as well as overseas copyright sales. .
Jack David, who is nearly forty years old, is the producer of the project. Due to the limited budget, for the most important position of director, Jack is targeting fresh graduates from film schools who are cheap, professional, passionate and responsible. , which is one of the main options for independent filmmakers.
Ye Wei, who majored in "Film and Television Production", participated in the application. Although he was not a star student, his talent was only limited by money. In this competition, he showed his talents and successfully obtained the director's intention.
¡°This was a few months ago, and the story of the script was okay, and Ye Wei was confident that he could tell it charmingly. The most important thing is that the opportunity is rare. Compared with making music videos and commercials, it is much better to make a feature film to start. It is also not an exploitation film such as a spoof film or a plasma film, which can fully demonstrate his talent.
If everything goes well, after finishing his graduation work and leaving campus, he will immediately direct his own film?A movie.
"We have considered it carefully. From a commercial point of view, you are not suitable for directing this film"
Hearing these words, Ye Wei was stunned and clenched his phone tightly in his hand, "Are you serious?!"
He put down the family photo frame, his eyes almost bursting with fire, and said angrily: "Jack, are you on drugs? I'm already drawing storyboards, and you say I'm not suitable? Are you saying it now!?"
When Ryan heard this, he turned around in surprise.
"I know you're not going to like this news, sorry Yui, but you know this is a story with a white protagonist and a white female protagonist, and you Yui, it's not racist, it's just appropriate. This project is about me too. 500,000 yuan in my production career! This is the highest-budget film I have ever made. If I screw it up, I will be finished. You know how cruel the film industry is."
Ye Wei took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and said calmly: "I can understand, but don't Chinese people understand love? Ang Lee's version of "Sense and Sensibility" is a classic! Several of my student short films have already shown You can trust me because of my professionalism. Let¡¯s sit down and talk about it, where are you now or tomorrow?¡±
"No, there is no need to talk. In fact, we have already agreed on a new director"
"who?"
"You should also know Benjamin Schreiber."
"He? That guy" Ye Wei laughed angrily, "Jack, don't do stupid things. Benjamin Schreiber will only mess everything up. The project we are talking about is a 35mm film project! His shooting The ratio is 5:1. Your money will be gone after half the shot, but I am only 3:1!¡±
"There is a problem, but Schreiber said he can control it to 3:1."
"Control, that means he will be helpless. I can do it without control. Why do you believe him but not me?"
"This matter is very complicated. In fact, we are planning to shoot digitallyyou know, the shooting ratio is not important"
"Jackplease!"
"No, I'm very sorry. I gave you the directing rights before because Schreiber had other considerations. Now he has decided to come to me, so that's it. Wei, I hope we will cooperate in the future. Thank you for your contribution to "Love in the Midsummer". Goodbye."
There was a beep and the call was hung up. Ye Wei stood there blankly, filled with anger but nowhere to vent it. It gradually seemed to burn him up. God played another joke on him.
A bleak and heavy atmosphere filled the apartment, as if the air had condensed.
Ryan looked stunned, "Benjamin Schreiber? They asked him to replace you? Dog-shit! Dog-shit!"
It¡¯s not that Schreiber is incompetent and has been in the limelight more than Wei, but anyone who knows movies knows that compared to Wei, that guy is actually far behind.
Wei¡¯s script deconstruction, scene planning, and leadership skills are not better than Benjamin Schreiber in any aspect! Even in terms of general education, Wei's performance in the work-study program was no worse than that of his counterpart. In Ryan's view, among this year's film and television production graduates, no one can compare with Ye Wei.
He is not the only one who thinks so. In the past few years, every time he did a short film project, apart from those rich kids who spent money, who was not vying to cooperate with Ye Wei? Others can only stand aside.
The result is nowhow could this be possible!
"It really sucks." Ryan gasped in anger, "It's so unfair."
Ye Wei burst out laughing suddenly, shook his head and laughed: "I should have expected that Jack David has been reluctant to sign a formal contract with me. It turned out that he had the idea of ??kicking me away from the beginning, just to use me and Benjamin - Schreiber is just bargaining, you two bitches!¡±
"Forget it, Ryan, with a producer like this, the film won't be good in the end. Let's just make the graduation film with peace of mind. After graduation, we can raise the money to produce it ourselves!"
Ryan felt very unwilling and unconvinced on behalf of Wei, "I can't swallow this breath."
Ye Wei silently walked to the big chopping board, tore off all the script analysis, storyboards and other drawings on "Love in the Midsummer", crumpled them into a pile of messy paper balls, and threw them all next to it. He couldn't look away from the trash can for a long time.
He felt pain in his heart, as if someone had cut out a piece of his heart, but after all, he was not a person who had not experienced setbacks. This blow would not make him want to live or die.
Yes, this is unfair, but what can be done?
"Oh crap!" Ryan suddenly remembered something and his expression changed again, "Then your advance payment was all wasted?"
"Of course, you expect?You bitch will give me $10,000? "Ye Wei spread his hands and said, "If he is willing to repay me a little money for the label paper, he will be awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor. "
Ryan couldn't help but laugh. Without that money, the budget for their team's graduation project suddenly plummeted. They originally planned to shoot a few more outdoor scenes, but now they are all hanging. Everything has to be controlled more strictly, and everything has become tense. .
As a screenwriter in the team, the direct impact on him is that many things can only be retained in his own 90-minute graduation script, and in this short film version, they will be deleted and modified.
At this time, Ye Wei looked at his watch, it was already 11 o'clock in the evening, "I have to go."
He is a part-time waiter at a restaurant near the school. When he is free, he earns a little money to help out. After that accident, the burden on his family has been heavy. Over the years, if he had not relied on work-study and scholarships, he would not have been able to reach this point.
"Don't go there tonight, let's go have a few drinks?"
"If you want to take advantage of my frustration to be lazy, then you have made the wrong idea."
Ryan smiled and said, "Well, be careful on the road. It's not peaceful around the school recently. You know someone was robbed a few days ago."
"Is there any Taiping near the school? Ask my bicycle, where is it now?"
Ye Wei picked up the backpack on the desk, opened the drawer of the desk, took out a bottle of pepper spray and put it in his pocket. Although he had some skills, the gangsters always brought their own guys. If you want to defend yourself, it is best to bring a bottle of pepper spray. Load weapons.
"Be careful anyway."
"I will."
Ryan shrugged, turned to look at the computer screen, glanced at it a few times, still troubled, he shouted to Ye Wei who was about to go out: "Hey, I really feel that my thoughts are a little blocked, what do you think? "
Ye Wei put on his sneakers and replied thoughtfully: "I thinkit's not just a line, it's the entire scene that has problems. The protagonist's purpose in stepping forward is too serious. He thinks too much, and He sacrificed nothing afterwards.¡±
"Ryan, you know, 'sacrifice' and 'sacred' come from the same root word sacr. People revere those who are willing to sacrifice. Once a person makes a sacrifice, he will be covered with a sacred halo.
But it is not about sacrificing others, but about sacrificing himself, and it is truly selfless. For others or a certain reason, he stands up willingly. Pain, suffering, and loss don't matter. At this time, he is a noble and holy guy, and he will Earn our respect.
The so-called heroes are different from ordinary people like us. But heroes are better than us, not because they possess supreme power, but because they are more willing to sacrifice than we are. If a child loses something by saving a drowning adult, he will be a hero!
The problem with the current script is that the protagonist is neither truly selfless nor makes any sacrifices. You know, sacrifice doesn¡¯t need a reason. Your line is actually ¡®because I am a hero. ¡¯ As for what to sacrifice and how to change the script there is no time to discuss it now, let¡¯s talk about it tomorrow. "
"Damn it! You're so right, I understand!" After hearing these words, Ryan's face changed, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.
When he came back to his senses, he found that Ye Wei had already gone out.
Under the night, Ye Wei walked on Figuerola Street in the north of the campus, his steps were fast, and he was alert to the movements around him.
The southern part of USC is connected to the notorious South Los Angeles area. Going there is like playing "GTA". There are countless drug dealers, gangs, and prostitutes. Therefore, for many years, the University of Southern California has been ranked first in two places: first in the United States in film majors, and first in the United States for worst university security.
At this hour, there are no pedestrians on the street, and no vehicles are seen. This area is mostly residential, and some streets are even more remote. On both sides are the sides of buildings, or high barbed wire fences, which can be seen through I saw private houses and parking lots in the distance.
It¡¯s a place like this that is fine during the day, but at night, especially in the early morning, it becomes a breeding ground for crime, with frequent incidents happening over the years.
The fast food restaurant where Ye Wei works is on South Hoover Street. He was delayed for a while because of the bad news tonight. He didn't want to be late and lose his job. His boss had already warned him, so he had to take some small roads. Since the area under our feet is still within the patrol range of the campus police, we can rest assured. However, like all police, their normal behavior is to arrive a little late and cannot be completely counted on.
Without the salary from "Love in the Midsummer", the burden on the family has become heavier again, and we must work harder
Ye Wei thought about his thoughts and slowly walked through the blocks. The night was getting darker and darker. Although he walked a long way,He also had a strange feeling, as if something was wrong, as if there was a sound coming from a distance
When he passed a corner, he saw a group of people standing in a stalemate in the depths of the alley turning right. He stared to see clearly, and suddenly cursed under his breath: "*!"
He actually encountered them. Less than thirty yards away, there were three guys who looked like gangsters, all holding pistols and gesticulating at the four Asian youths who were surrounding them. Some of the young people were wearing red clothes with a C logo, and they were obviously students at the University of Southern California.
While leaning against the wall to hide his figure, Ye Wei quickly took out his mobile phone and called the campus police and 911. They all said the same thing: "I am probably in the south section of Portland Street now. There is an armed robbery taking place here. Three gangsters, four students, I'm on the corner, yes, come quickly!"
At the same time, the atmosphere over there became more and more tense, and the students were discussing something anxiously: "Give it all to them, just treat it as a waste of money to prevent disaster.", "Yeah, do you want to die? That is a real gun!"
The gangsters may not understand, but Ye Wei can because they speak Chinese and he is proficient in Chinese.
They are Chinese or Chinese students studying abroad. He secretly scolded these compatriots. Of course it was a real gun. What are you talking about? Hurry up and get your money and other personal belongings out. Safety first! Maybe they can keep their car.
There was a car with the door open next to those students. It belonged to them. This was not surprising. Almost everyone in Los Angeles had a car, and it was just an old second-hand Ford.
"You trash, don't make a sound!"
At this time, one of the gangsters yelled and slapped the boy who was stalling, "You want to delay until someone comes to rescue you? Hand over the money immediately, or I will kill you all!"
"No, no, no, no, I've given you the money, don't hurt us." Now the students didn't dare to hesitate anymore and hurriedly paid the money. The two girls were almost crying.
The gangsters took the small amount of US dollars and were very dissatisfied: "Why is it just such a small amount? Aren't the Chinese guys very rich now?", "Yes, especially these USC students, who are not rich? You guys Do you want to play tricks?"
A female student choked with sobs and said anxiously: "We are not the children of rich people. We are all working part-time. You see, this car was bought as a joint venture between the four of us for carpooling. It is so that we can go back to school after working part-time We Our parents are just ordinary working-class people. They are looking forward to us returning to China after studying abroad. Please don¡¯t hurt us"
The two boys felt greatly humiliated, but they were defenseless and did not dare to express their anger.
"Shut up!" The gang leader yelled again. He looked at their car and saw that it was really worthless. However, when he glanced at the two female students again, he suddenly laughed: "Kiss my ass. These two Asian bitches look great!¡±
The other two gangsters also looked at it again and again, came to understand, and laughed obscenely.
And the students were shocked.
"Get in the car! You two, get in the car." The gang leader waved his gun and urged them to get in the car.
"No, no, we will give you our money, mobile phone and car without calling the police! Let us leave safely!" the male student said anxiously.
They know very well what these gangsters want to do. If the two girls get in the car, what awaits them is disappearance, rape, imprisonment, and death.
"Hurry!" Unable to stay any longer, the gangsters pushed the two girls, "Get in the car!"
They naturally refused and struggled in fear, while the two boys stepped forward to pull the gangster away. The gang leader said angrily: "Shut up, you all shut up!" Suddenly, the boy in charge opened his throat and shouted: "Help!! Help!!!"
"You stinky Chinaman!" The gang leader waved his pistol and pointed it at the boy
Bang!
The sound of a gunshot was extremely harsh, followed by screams, exclamations, and cries.
"What the fuck!" On the street corner over there, Ye Wei saw the boy lying in a pool of blood. He couldn't help but clenched his fists and trembled all over. Why haven't the school police and the police arrived yet? ! He had to do something, he couldn't just watch
"Get in the car, get in the car!" The gangsters were also anxious. After all, shooting and killing was a serious matter.
The other boy just woke up from his sluggish state and ran away like crazy
Bang!
There was another pool of blood. Ye Wei gritted his teeth until they were almost broken. If he didn't do something, it would be too late. It would be too late in his life.
Did you watch those two girls being kidnapped?
Of course not! Ye Wei turned around and ran back, preparing to turn from another trail. He dropped his backpack and reached for the pepper spray in his pocket with his right hand.?¡¡
"Get in the car, bitch, get in the car if you don't want to die!", "Hurry up!" The three gangsters pushed the two frightened girls into the back of the car. The gang leader sat in the driver's seat, cursing something: "Two idiots, this is what they get for messing with niggas Where's the key!? Where's the damn key!?"
Another gangster got into the passenger seat and ordered the braided accomplice outside the car, "Look for it, it must be on that wordy guy!"
The two girls cried together, and the braided gangster cursed and moved towards the body on the ground
Without warning, a figure rushed out from the dark alley behind him!
"What!?"
"Hell, there's a Chinaman!"
There were screams in the car. The braided gangster didn't know what was going on. As soon as he raised his head, a piece of yellow spray rushed towards him. His eyes were immediately so painful that they seemed to burst out. He screamed instinctively: "Ah ¡!¡±
The other two gangsters were already pointing their guns at the outside of the car
You only have one chance! Ye Wei kicked the screaming gangster out of the car. When the gunfire rang out, the gangster blocked the door of the car. He quickly snatched the pistol from his hand. His heart seemed to be suffocating, but he was unusually calm. There is a sharp light in your eyes, you have offended the wrong person!
Ye Wei gripped the pistol tightly and quickly thrust the muzzle into the gap in the car door. Ye Wei pulled the trigger again and again!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The screams of girls and the screams of gangsters rang out continuously, and the sound of gunfire continued until it turned into the clicking sound of empty bullets. Except for the car alarm, there was dead silence.
The gangster blocking the door of the car had been shot countless times and was already dead. When he fell to the ground, Ye Wei only saw that the two gangsters in the front row of the car were also dead. They were both shot in the head. The windshield was full of cracks and bursting with blood.
The two girls lying down in the back row looked even more lost. Their faces were pale and covered with splattered plasma.
Although Ye Wei was still standing, he was almost unsteady and felt out of breath. He bent down and looked inside the car and asked in Mandarin: "Are you okay?"
They stared at him blankly, not knowing who he was or what his current situation was
Then they saw clearly that his chest was bright red, "Ah!", "Youyou were shot."
When Ye Wei heard these words, he felt a huge pain in his chest and his whole body went weak. He could only slowly sit down against the car. When he looked down, he seemed to have been shot in the lungs. During the melee just now, , a bullet should have passed through the braided gangster and then hit him.
He took a long breath and looked at the night sky with a few bright stars. In just a few seconds, breathing became more and more difficult, and huge pain kept coming.
"This time the University of Southern Californiashould become the worst in terms of security in the world"
At this time, the two girls stumbled out of the car. They were so frightened by the scene in front of them that they couldn't say what they wanted to say.
"My brothers and sisters, hasn't anyone told you when you pass by here at night, don't open your windows and ignore passers-by? What are you thinking? 'Haha, fool', that's the laughter of Bren Bear."
Ye Wei looked at them and showed a cruel smile, blood gushed out from the corner of his mouth, and he kept coughing: "You remember, don't make this mistake again"
"I'm sorry" They slowly regained some sense. One of them tremblingly took a cell phone from the sea of ??blood in the front seat of the car and wanted to call 911.
"I've already fought, but those losers haven't come yet."
Ye Wei could no longer breathe, his lungs must have been filled with blood. He turned to glance at the gangster lying aside, coughed and laughed: "These sons of bitches do they think they are filming "Mean Streets"? "It's okay now, suck-it, you sons of bitches, go to hell"
"Wait wait, my God I'm a hero now! Haha, Ryan I thought of a good line: 'Every mortal has the gene of a hero in his body.' And, and This sentence'Being a hero really hurts.' No matter what, the protagonist must say this sentencehaha"
"Classmate, hold on!" The two girls cried so hard, "Where are you from? Do you want to call home?"
"Tell my family that I love themI love them very, very much"
Ye Wei's consciousness was blurred. He couldn't hear the outside sounds, and he gradually couldn't see the scene in front of him. Everything seemed to have lost focus. Instead, there were many illusions that kept flashing, including his former friends, his former school, and his past. home
ThatBefore his life changed drastically, before he moved and changed schools, he was still a young middle school boy.
Am I going to die? No, my family still needs me to take on the responsibilities, no, I haven¡¯t directed a movie yet, no
My name has not yet shined among the great directors
"You can call me Wei."
¡¡
"No!!!!!!"
Ye Wei suddenly woke up and looked around at his room. He turned on the bedside lamp, and at this moment Toto rushed in from outside the room in panic, jumped onto the bed, and licked his wrinkled face.
"Oh girl, I'm fine." Ye Wei patted its head and turned to dodge, his frowning eyebrows not yet relaxed.
I have this nightmare again. Since that day two years ago, I have had this dream eight times if not ten times. He has always wondered what this dream was about. It wasn't about going back to the past, but maybe it was about dreaming about the future, and he also learned something. It was like learning to walk as a baby. He couldn't remember how many falls he had, but he just knew how to do it. Walking seems to be innate.
He has tried to meditate on more future information in his dreams, such as which issue of Powerball number, how many more "Spider-Man" movies will be filmed However, he can't think of any information, except for some information about himself, who is Lian Lane? None of it was clear, and the longer time passed, the blurrier it became, leaving only the night I dreamed about from time to time.
Whether it was originally the future or not, it has been changed, and the future has once again become completely unknown.
Ye Wei looked at the row of movie posters on the opposite wall, the cake-kicking poster of "Wedding Day is Coming", the cross and shotgun poster of "Exorcist Video", and the crowd-carrying poster of "Little Miss Sunshine". "Love in the Midsummer"? It seems to be called this name.
Hello, I already have my first, second, and third feature film.
Two days later, on Saturday, LMS will premiere.
His future, and the future of many people, does not know where it will go on this track.
"How are you, Toto?" Ye Wei looked at Toto next to him and sat up. The sky outside the window was already dim and bright, it was past five o'clock in the morning.
He got out of bed, changed into gray and black sportswear, and went to his parents' master bedroom at the other end of the second floor. He opened the half-open door and took a look. His parents were still sleeping soundly. "You are so greedy." You are sleeping. My son has a nightmare and screams so loudly that I can¡¯t wake you up.¡±
He smiled and shrugged, then went to Duoduo's room not far away. It continued the style of the baby's room. The walls were covered with children's graffiti, painted by him and his father. He walked to the children's wooden bed with guardrails. , arranged the bear dolls and other stuffed animals, and covered Duoduo with the kicked-off quilt.
Duoduo was sleeping soundly, with a pool of drool drooling on the pillow. Next to the pillow was a large bag of candies that she had received on Halloween.
"Hehe" Ye Wei tiptoed and grabbed a handful of candies from the sack. Toto, who was witnessing the crime beside him, was so anxious that he hissed at it: "Eating too much is not good for her, Nina will do it this weekend." Come on, it must be another bag.¡±
Toto was still anxious, so he opened one and fed it to it. It immediately calmed down, and it turned out that it was begging for candy.
"Follow, girl, let's go for a walk in the park." He walked outside and called Toto.
The sky gradually became brighter. Ye Wei drove Toto to the Barrington Dog Park not far away. After parking the car, as soon as he entered the park surrounded by barbed wire, he untied Toto's rope and let it run freely. There were no people or dogs around in the early morning. Toto ran a long way before he found a golden retriever dog as a playmate.
"Enjoy your morning." Ye Wei smiled and began to do warm-up activities to prepare for daily self-training. Many thoughts came to mind
Sprinting, return running, vertical jump After training for a while, the sky was completely bright and he was sweating. Over there, Toto no longer ran wildly but was sniffing for something.
There are more and more people coming for dog walking and morning exercise. There are also more and more cars in the parking lot outside. Another white Maserati has arrived.
"Wei?" Not long after, a girl with a ponytail in an off-white sportswear jogged into the park. Toto excitedly pounced on her. Then she saw him and walked over.
Ye Wei also saw her, raised his hand and said hello: "Good morning, Jane. You don't have a dog, what are you doing here?" Lily rolled her eyes, "Do you believe that Trust will follow me?" Ye Wei chuckled. : "I really have no confidence in it. It just betrayed Duoduo before."
It was no surprise to them that they would meet each other here. The Barrington Dog Park is not far from their home. This was the first place they went to hang out, and they often came here to play later. But this was the first time they met. Recently, they always met, even in school.
The two strolled away, chatting, and Toto ran off to play by himself again.
"The premiere is in two days, have you decided to attend or not?" Ye Wei asked.
The premiere of LMS will be held on November 5th at the Chinese Theater in Hollywood. It is one of the symbols of Hollywood and attracts the most attention from the Los Angeles film critics, so DreamWorks did not save money on this aspect.
"I" Lily hasn't made up her mind yet, "I haven't decided yet." I don't know if it's suitable or not.
"Come here." Ye Wei invited, "All 161 of our Dream Chasing Alliance shareholders will attend, you are the only one missing."
Yes, I am a shareholder too! Lily finally thought about it and nodded: "I want to attend. I'll ask my dad to go with me to increase LMS's popularity. He has a little influence."
¡°That¡¯s even better, I haven¡¯t seen Phil for a long time and I miss him a bit.¡±
"He won't miss you."
¡°Like his style.¡±
As we walked and chatted, Ye Wei gradually became very silent, wanting to tell something in his heart, "Lilyit's nothing."
Lily saw it and frowned: "What happened? Hey? About the movie?" Ye Wei frowned and wanted to say it several times but didn't know how to say it. His eyes were fixed: "Yes, about Oscar They didn't want to sign my name for the best film." Lily was stunned: "Who?"
At that moment, he told the whole story, and his face couldn't help but look depressed.
She listened quietly, her face changed more and more, she raised her two heroic eyebrows, her bright eyes filled with anger. When he finished speaking, she said seriously: "Don't listen to them, absolutely not."
"This is your movie! However, even if there are no nominations, having a literary film nominated for Oscars at the age of 17 or 18 is already an extraordinary achievement. Your achievement! If you listen to them, are there any nominations? , those people have benefited, but what about you? Others will say that you haven¡¯t done much work, otherwise why don¡¯t you sign it?¡±
Lily paused, walked up to him, and said face to face: "You must sign! All of them!"
"I know the pros and cons." Ye Wei looked up at the morning sky, "I'm working hard.
