Chapter 492 Prophecy and Preview

Many people later believed that Su Yun's acceptance speech for the Best Foreign Language Film at this year's Academy Awards was a sign that she didn't want to be associated with that circle anymore, so she reluctantly maintained her social etiquette and went on stage to receive the award as a final statement of their years of love-hate relationship.

After all, in the records of Su Yun's behavior, unless her genitals were touched, she was always a supporter of "Zhong Yao".

Su Yun's temperament and backbone are also very traditional in Chinese style. When it comes to etiquette in large occasions, she tries to be as "gentle and polite" as possible, so most of the time she can always end up in a "friendly way".

At that time, some people thought Su Yun was too arrogant, and believed that it was a wrong choice for her to put her main energy back to China and Hong Kong: although the entertainment and economy of mainland China have indeed achieved rapid development in recent years, and with the support of the demographic advantage, there have been certain box office figures; however, if it is compared with Hollywood, which has been developing for many years and is still the most popular, the gap between the two is undoubtedly more than just a little bit.

Anyway, at this time, it is really difficult for anyone to predict that the changes and developments in the world in the next few decades will be so unexpected.

It was just like no one could have imagined that a country that was once so powerful and prosperous would suddenly collapse almost silently before the advent of the new century, when many people were not mentally prepared.

The country has lost a powerful rival, and in the entertainment sector, in the last decade of this century, they have also lost a rival that they both love and hate. Although many people in Hollywood have various opinions on Su Yun's box office-grabbing behavior in recent years, it is undeniable that the promotion that Su Yun has made for the film industry in recent years has also benefited all filmmakers.

While they were all striving to make a critically and commercially successful movie and realize their dream of fame and fortune, Su Yun and her partners were doing the same thing as them while also innovating technology in the film industry.

Such technological innovations will benefit not only Su Yun and those who pursue filmmaking technology like her, but all filmmakers around the world.

Just like the Hong Kong film industry pioneered the "wire hanging" technique, which spread from action films and mythological films and became an essential technique for many subsequent film productions.

The innovation of a relevant technology leads to the corresponding development of the entire industry.

In general, the reason why they did not acknowledge Su Yun’s contribution before, or tried to suppress it, was ultimately because she was not “one of them” - if Su Yun was “one of them”, with Hollywood’s ability to create stars, she would definitely be the most dazzling real “star” in this era and this circle.

Now, this "star" whose light is deliberately concealed is probably tired of the Hollywood world of fame and fortune, and plans to return to his hometown to contribute to the development of his hometown...

In this way, suddenly, Su Yun received treatment that she had never imagined before.

After this awards ceremony, those newspapers and magazines that used to always want to find fault with her became very "gentle" when mentioning Su Yun.

Not only is there less nitpicking than before, but the article even uses a rather praiseful tone, summarizing Su Yun's contribution to the film industry over the years, as well as the innovations she and her partners have made in film technology, electronic technology products, etc.

Su Yun bought a few copies with interest, and her face turned red after reading them: It must be said that the person who "knows" you best is always your enemy. The article was full of praise, and if she hadn't known that it was about her, she would have thought it was the life record of some super great person...

Perhaps it is true that only after "losing" something can one recognize the "beauty" of something that was once insignificant and disliked?

People are always so "cheap". They don't cherish what they should cherish, and they cry and wail when they lose it, saying things like "where will Hollywood's film technology go after Mary Sue is gone", as if Hollywood's film technology will have no future without her...

Don't worry, she will focus her main energy on her hometown. When she has time, she will come to Hollywood to make money and then go back to support her mother in her motherland - then it will probably be a day of quarreling with each other again...

While they are still wallowing in such "pain", let them continue to flatter her. When she makes a comeback with a commercial film that focuses on making money, she probably won't be treated this way anymore.

Of course, Su Yun was very knowledgeable about the ways of the world and responded with a wave of commercial flattery, then packed up and returned to Hong Kong to continue filming "Nine States Past 3: Glory Returns".

Compared to the first and second parts which have a "historical basis", the third part "Kyushu Past 3: Glory Reappears" is designed based on her "past" and the "future" at this time.

Therefore, after the release of "Kyushu Stories 3: Glory Return", due to these plots, it received many comments that it was exaggerated and fantastic.

Moreover, because "Kyushu Past 3: Glory Reappears" overly promotes the success of China's "future development", many people feel that this film is too "main theme". They believe that Su Yun's plot setting this time is just to please the market on the Chinese mainland.

Although the flashbacks based on "historical foundation" in the early part of this movie, where Zhong Yao was brought back to the joint meeting by the grateful people because of her financial support to third world countries, were indeed exciting, exciting and eye-sore, but the developments in the later plots... are they really too fantastical?

The successful bid for the Olympic Games has accelerated the development of entertainment and sports, and the infrastructure after the snowstorm has developed rapidly to the point of becoming an infrastructure maniac. The development and emergence of the 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G eras as well as the Internet and smart phones have made the whole world seem to have undergone multiple technological explosions in just a decade or so... Such an overly fantastic and almost magical plot seems to be a far cry from the previous two series of films with a "historical basis."

How big is this gap?

It seems that the previous two films were true records of reality, while this one is a science fiction fantasy movie.

Of course, apart from those unpopular comments, there are also quite a lot of people who like the plot of "Nine States Past 3: Glory Returns".

Among those who like the series, audiences from mainland China are the majority: for them, Su Yun is born with the buff bonus of "national lady", and the movies she produces naturally have qualified levels of favorability and praise, and the plot of this film is relatively close to the main theme style that is popular in mainland China's film and television works, so it is simply a double blessing.

In addition, the Big Brother from the North had just passed away not long ago, and the whole society was in a state of confusion and anxiety as it suddenly lost its goal. The situation was difficult to stabilize. Therefore, the emergence of such a movie full of "hope" just met people's current psychological needs for "comfort" about the future.

Under such polarization, relying on the intensive promotion in mainland China, Su Yun's "Nine Continents 3: Glory Reappears" actually attracted everyone's attention and achieved a higher box office than the previous two films!

Among them, audiences in mainland China made the largest box office contribution to this movie, which is even higher than the box office figures in North America!

Although Su Yun's "movies to the countryside" strategy in her early years had already made people realize the box office power of mainland China, the mainland economy at that time was still difficult to compare with Hollywood. The unexpected income of that year could only be said to have given Su Yun the strength to persevere during that difficult period, but it did not reach the level of shocking the world.

Until this moment, seeing that the box office revenue is not inferior to that of North America, people have once again discovered how great the potential of the Chinese mainland in the film industry is since its rapid economic development.

This is a future box office with excellent prospects, and a future market with great potential. It is far more promising than places like Taiwan and Southeast Asia that are gradually implementing local protection policies. It is even more capable of allowing a movie to reach the pinnacle of commercial capabilities!

And because of the rapid economic development, the subsequent contribution of the Chinese mainland to a movie is even more difficult to predict: with the increasing popularity of televisions and DVD players, people in the mainland will buy DVDs of their favorite movies and collect them at home to watch and appreciate them repeatedly, providing a large share of the subsequent income of the movie...

In this situation, "Kyushu 3: Glory Reappears" seems to be repeating the fate of the "Back to the Future" trilogy: because of Su Yun's investment, the "Back to the Future" trilogy contained many "future technologies", and when it was broadcast that year, it was also described as "fantastic" many times.

As a result, when those technologies really appeared in reality or were proven to be possible to realize, the "Back to the Future" trilogy developed from a science fiction film series with a relatively innovative worldview into today's "God of Prophecy Movie" and one of the "masterpieces" in the minds of science fiction fans.

This also led to the hot sales of the videotapes and DVDs of the "Back to the Future" trilogy in North America and other regions.

Because people who enjoyed the "future technology" in the movie but did not see the movie when it was released, as well as the audiences who discovered that the "future technology" in the movie appeared in reality, all want to watch or revisit this "prophetic movie" from many years ago.

If nothing unexpected happens, "Kyushu Past 3: Glory Reappears" will become another "science fiction masterpiece" in the future as the plot is realized.

In this regard, some people think that this is because Su Yun herself is engaged in research on electronic technology products, so what she shows in the movie is not just "future fantasy", but also "speculation" and "future research plan".

Therefore, the plot of her movie is not a "prophecy" but a "trailer"!

There are too many viewpoints to mention one by one, and Su Yun at this time has not yet fully grown into the "far-sighted and accurate prophet" in people's minds, so at this moment, she still honestly took out time to attend her own TV station's anniversary party on the night of the anniversary celebration, to increase the ratings of the program and to give some encouragement and support to her friends who are responsible for performing on stage.

At the same time, he also wanted to make it clear to everyone in Hong Kong that his future work focus would be placed back in his hometown.

With the development of the times and the advancement of technology, the TV station's anniversary parties are indeed becoming more and more exciting. Su Yun sat at the table just to the left of the center and clapped until her hands were almost tired.

Watching Wang Ningquan and Jiaying singing the song "Only Love Remains Forever" affectionately on the stage, Huang Zhan, who was afraid that the world would not be in chaos, immediately cheered for the two to kiss on the spot.

Su Yun, who was also sitting at the table, suddenly became playful and shouted along with Huang Zhan's hoarse voice: "Kiss her! Kiss her! Kiss her!"

The people of Hong Kong have always been willing to assist and "encourage" couples that are recognized by the public. In addition, Sister Wang has always had a more reserved image, so it was inevitable that the people in the audience would start to join in the fun.

Seeing Su Yun and Huang Zhan making trouble backstage, Wang Ningquan openly kissed Brother Jiaying, and then teased the two instigators with a few words, "encouraging" the people around them to give them some "love".

Huang Zhan was always in a playful mood, and he immediately loudly stated that he only accepted kisses from pretty girls—and then he was instantly drowned by a group of men rushing up from the side...

After all, in this circle, there is basically no artist who has not been teased or even "teased" by Huang Zhan. Now that "new and old grudges" are coming together, isn't it just "revenge"?

Zhang Querong, who had just finished performing the King of Nightingale Dance, originally wanted to go over to give his bad friend Huang Zhan some trouble. However, when he squeezed in, he found that Huang Zhan, this particularly "handsome" guy, was waiting for him with a pout. He was so frightened that he took a step back, turned around and quickly got out of the encirclement.

Then, he forced his way into the room with Su Yun, who was shouting "I only accept kisses from pretty girls", while still wearing the half of his female outfit. He took the opportunity to touch Su Yun's face, which was covered with lipstick marks, causing laughter.

Taking advantage of the gap between the interlude of GG and the need to tidy up the stage, Su Yun quickly returned to her personal dressing room and planned to tidy up her appearance.

Fortunately, she is a female executive, otherwise, based on the lipstick marks on her face, the content of tomorrow's newspapers and magazines would probably be quite interesting...

Just as Su Yun was about to wipe her face in front of the mirror, there was a knock on the door.

"Danny? Why are you here?" Su Yun opened the door and asked curiously.

"Amei has to go on stage to perform with Lesley, so she doesn't have time to come over, so she asked me to come over to help you." Chen Baiyang explained as he slipped in.

"Oh, then I don't need to call anyone else." Su Yun sat down and handed him two wet tissues.

Chen Boyang took the wet tissue and smiled: "Which one is Lesley's? I wiped his first."

Su Yun thought for a moment and pointed to the lipstick mark on the upper left side of her cheek near the cheekbone: "It should be this..."

So Chen Boyang helped her clean it up with a smile.

"Are you done? Is there anything else..." Feeling the coolness of the wet tissue, Su Yun had his back to the mirror and could not see his own situation.

Chen Boyang shook his head: "There is one more."

"Where?"

"Here." The warm touch of his fingertips brushed past her lips, and as the words fell, he also kissed her.
