The lighted stage is dazzling.
Brilliance represents glory and the attention of everyone, shining as if you are the focus of the whole world.
However, Lu Yuan felt like a wild cat that was stunned by a searchlight. He didn't know what to do for a moment and could only escape mechanically.
I received the award, expressed my gratitude, and then when I walked off the stage, I was surrounded by countless reporters asking questions...
Chinese, English, Italian...
All kinds of words echoed in Lu Yuan's ears, asking about the song "To Alice", asking about his own feelings, asking whether he would go further in the music in the future, whether he was interested in cooperating with Edward, and even asking who Alice was in "To Alice"...
Who is Alice? How should Lu Yuan answer?
Lu Yuan couldn't answer because he never thought that these questions would come to him.
He suddenly felt inexplicably panicked.
In the past, he just wanted to show off, but he didn't expect that his show-off would be exposed on an international scale, and now it is difficult to stop it for a while.
Lu Yuan was originally an ordinary person and had never experienced such a turbulent situation, so he really didn't know how to answer these reporters. Therefore, he could only pretend to smile and shake his head, then slowly sit in his seat and continue to smile and remain silent.
Keep smiling, keep classy!
This is a sad story.
Zhang Tong was so angry when he saw Lu Yuan's performance that his teeth ached!
Even when Lu Yuan rejected Edward's invitation, Zhang Tong's heart almost jumped.
What a great opportunity!
This is Edward, the foreign piano master!
How many people dream of winning Edward's favor?
How many people have come to Edward's door but have not received any affirmation?
And what about Lu Yuan?
He actually gave up such an opportunity to connect with the international community. Not only did he give up, he even rejected it.
What on earth is going on in his head?
Is it the arrogance of literati?
But even if you are arrogant, you can't be so arrogant, right?
Aren't you destroying your own future?
Moreover, with so many international reporters surrounding you now, why don't you at least say a few words and answer a few questions to make yourself familiar in front of the camera?
This is going to be on TV!
If these reporters write more good things about you, you will definitely make a fortune!
Even at this moment, looking at Lu Yuan sitting quietly in his seat with a stiff smile on his face, Zhang Tong almost couldn't help but hit him on the head!
Why is this brain so stupid?
Are you going to reject such a bright future?
About ten minutes later, when the award ceremony was over, Zhang Tong stared at Lu Yuan and finally couldn't help but talk about Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan's face turned red as he looked at Zhang Tong chattering away with an angry look on his face.
finally……
He sighed.
"Director Zhang, I'm telling you... I know I've run out of ideas, and if I agree to Edward's proposal, I'll be embarrassed internationally. I'm really not the so-called arrogance of a scholar? Do you believe me?"
"Get lost! Why don't you just die! Even if you're pretending to be cool, this isn't the way to act!"
Zhang Tong found Lu Yuan's naive appearance more and more annoying.
He remembered something similar that Lu Yuan said on the plane...
Finally, I couldn't help blurting out the polite words.
How can there be such a bitch in this world!
"..." After looking at Zhang Tong's disgusting expression as if he had eaten a fly, Lu Yuan didn't know what to say except expressing his grievance.
Don't you believe the truth again?
…
September 10th.
Although it is no longer as hot as in summer, it is still very stuffy.
The box office battle is still in full swing, and all directors are eyeing the box office battle in September...
Of course, these directors do not include Shen Lianjie...
September was an unforgettable nightmare for Shen Lianjie, a nightmare of falling from a high altitude to the bottom of the valley.
The film "Capital City" was released ahead of schedule...
The online reputation is extremely bad, and the box office continues to decline in real life, setting new records every day. There was even one show when only a few people bought tickets, and they were all the audience who left halfway through the show cursing...
The space vacated for early release was shared by four films: "Metro Station", "War Night", "Buried" and "My Deskmate".
In other words, "Capital City" has completely lost the qualification to compete for the box office champion in September, and ended with a total box office of 38 million, losing all the money.
The feeling of failure made Shen Lianjie look much older overnight, and he even grew a few white hairs...
Buried, which was once thought to be no match for the original, is growing wildly as if it were on drugs...
Even in the early morning of September 11, "Buried" set a terrifying record of 12 million on that day!
This movie with a small investment has gone completely crazy, breaking countless records and crashing into an unknown distance.
The promotion of a movie is very important, and generally speaking, publicity accounts for the bulk of the cost. Under normal circumstances, a movie like "Buried" would have to spend at least 10 million on publicity to achieve such a box office.
But Buried Alive doesn't.
It was all based on word of mouth and some of Lu Yuan's cool moves...
As of the tenth day, the total box office of "Buried" has reached 80 million!
What is the concept?
This is a crazy concept!
A concept that is enough to drive the entire film industry crazy!
Low cost, explosive box office, it is a terrifying record in the entire Chinese film history, no, even in the entire world film history!
Of course, even with the craziness of Buried, there's still no hope of it winning the September box office crown.
"Metro Station" grossed 130 million.
"Battle Night" grossed $125 million.
"My Deskmate" grossed 90 million.
"Buried Alive" ranked fourth.
Despite this, netizens believe that September belongs to Buried. Even if it is the future box office champion, it cannot overshadow Buried. This is also the first time that the popularity of the fourth-ranked movie has surpassed the number one movie at the box office...
But after September 10th, netizens suddenly discovered that September also completely belonged to Lu Yuan, the director of "Buried"!
Lu Yuan, who was an unknown little person a month ago, suddenly became popular after September 10th!
It’s extremely popular!
On the forum, Lu Yuan’s fake smile emoticons at the Venice awards ceremony were everywhere.
The entire forum was flooded with pretentious captions like "Smiling on the face, but MMP in the heart", "What? I won a prize?" and "I'll take a nap first, call me when you receive the award"...
Weibo was full of exposures of Lu Yuan's identity, and many things about Lu Yuan were dug up, such as poetry meetings, songwriting, movies, piano music...
On the video website, they even dug up a video of Lu Yuan getting drunk and grabbing a guitar, playing "Old Boy"...
Bang!
At this moment, everything rushed out as if a bomb had exploded.
At this moment, netizens suddenly went crazy and discovered that this guy actually had so many "black histories"...
How can a human being do so many things?
You are so talented that you seem to be overdoing it!
Could it be that he is a child of destiny?
Of course, on September 11, there was a hot comment on Weibo headlines, which was: "Who is Alice in Lu Yuan's "To Alice"!" Moreover, this hot headline continued to be popular, with countless replies below. Many people came out to expose the secrets, and even dug out the love letters that Lu Yuan wrote to his junior high school classmates...
…
Lu Yuan didn’t know all this for the time being.
Because he was on the plane back to China, looking at the menu and thinking about a very important question in his life...
Well, what style should I use to decorate my restaurant?
What kind of waiters should we hire and what scale should we set?
These questions are worth pondering.
