Merulan Dora said that she preferred the plot of "The Departed", which was tense and exciting, but "The Shape of Water" had ideological connotations and extraordinary practical significance.

The former is suitable for box office, and the latter is suitable for winning awards.

"For example, our affirmative action movement has achieved considerable success this year. The college admission rate of all ethnic groups is roughly equal to the population ratio, and educational discrimination has been eradicated. The release of such a movie in the United States will have special commemorative significance.

"

Commemorating the affirmative action movement?

The cider still had some staying power, and the gong-breaking cry from "Furong Town" sounded in Su Changqing's mind: It's time to exercise!

Damn it, Merulan Dora is still stupid after all. She really thought that this kind of eating from a big pot could succeed.

After eating Northeastern German food, it was still early and it was impossible to go home.

The two braved the cold wind and swept three streets laughing and hugging each other, like two ghosts lingering on the land of Europe.

Many years later, Europe selected the most annoying tourists, and the United States and China ranked first and second all year round. The two nouveau riche were easily carried away and indulged in their own affairs.

In fact, this is a bit unfair. The weird behaviors of individual people are always magnified, and then escalated to belittle the whole group. In the 1980s, Japan ranked second. It was said that they were noisy and worshiped money. They only knew how to shop and did not appreciate the splendid European culture.

Finally they went into a bar and continued to drink beer.

Although the German nation pursues tranquility, people do not like to stay at home. Beer is a noisy thing. The bar is very noisy, and the German language really sounds like the clicking of a machine gun.

In fact, Russians are really peaceful. After drinking a bottle of Volga and falling asleep, they will either wake up the next day or not wake up at all.

Everyone in the bar was shouting, including Su Changqing and Melulan Dora, otherwise it would be difficult to hear what the other party was saying even if they were close at hand.

"If filming of "The Shape of Water" begins, who do you plan to cast in the lead role, Mu Mu?"

"Mu Mu? I'm afraid she's not suitable."

Although they were talking about movie casting, Su Changqing still felt a little awkward when Mu Mu was suddenly mentioned.

"Why is it inappropriate?"

It is common sense to choose actors according to the needs of the role. The heroine of "The Shape of Water" is a marginalized person in society and cannot be a beautiful woman like Mu Mu. Merulan Dora should understand this. It is obviously a deliberate question. She may suspect the two

Relationships between people are unusual.

Su Changqing answered calmly: "She is too beautiful. It is impossible for such a girl to become a marginalized person in society."

Merulan Dora stared at Su Changqing intently, her expression unchanged: "Oh? It seems that being too beautiful can sometimes be a problem."

"You should have experienced this."

Su Changqing also gave her a top hat, which felt a bit shameless.

However, Merulan Dora ignored this: "Why is this movie called "The Shape of Water"?"

"Because water is flowing, pure, and changes form all the time, just like uncontrollable desire."

"I'm just curious and want to know why the word "monogatari" is used. It doesn't seem to be a purely Chinese word."

Merulan Dora is really good at Chinese, and she actually knows that this is a foreign word.

"Monogatari" comes from Japanese Chinese like "revolution, civilization, police station" and other words, and its meaning is similar to "romance".

Su Changqing was a little confused when asked this question. The literal translation of the English name of this movie is The Shape of Water or The Shape of Water. The Shape of Water is a typical Japanese translation. When China Film introduced this movie, I don’t know what they were thinking and chose such a

name.

But now that Merulan Dora has put this question on Su Changqing's head, it feels like it's not just out of curiosity.

"I just... think this name sounds better."

"You gave the film a Japanese title, and I thought you were going to invite a Japanese actress to star in it."

It turned out that she wanted to ask this in a roundabout way.

Su Changqing is a little paranoid. Merulan Dora is not an ordinary person. It is easy to investigate him. Could this be implying: "No one is a fool, and they don't look at who I am. I won't care about your trivial things."

It’s crystal clear.”

Even Director Han knew that Nobuko Maeda had a complicated background. The Special Investigation Department of the Tokyo District Prosecutor's Office was a double lackey of the CIA and FBI. Merulan Dora knew that it was easy for Hachiman Harumi to get things done.

The wine has been drunk and the atmosphere is quite good. If you really start to pick on the skin at this time, do you want to distance yourself?

Feel free to do whatever you want, Su Changqing insists on talking about things seriously: "I have no intention of looking for Japanese actors. China also has very good actresses. They should not be too outstanding in appearance, but they must have characteristics. The casting for "Shoplifters" this time is good.

Ikumi Oki is very tasty.”

Merulan Dora agreed: "Oki Ikumi is indeed good. In fact, she is much more beautiful in person than on the screen."

To Su Changqing's surprise, Merulan Dora went on to talk a lot about her experiences living in China. She had been to many places and was very proud that she was the only blond woman there.

But after two glasses of wine, the topic turned back: "Miss Mu Mu became famous with "My Sassy Girl" and has been filming TV series since then. Why don't you make movies anymore? Didn't you prepare a new story for her?"

Maybe he was over-attended. What Su Changqing said sounded like he was asking: "Since you have made Mu Mu famous, you will no longer create movie scripts for her. Instead, you will make some popular TV series and advertisements to make money. Her artistic life will not be the same."

Considered?"

Su Changqing has a clear development plan. It is true that several movies in a row were not made for Mu Mu. This is understandable. It will never be Merulan Dora's turn to jump out and fight against injustice, right?

"I have created a new story for her, but I haven't had time to put it on the agenda yet."

"Oh, what kind of story is it?"

"When Mu Mu joined Siwei Film and Television Company, one of her classmates also came to work at Siwei Film and Television, and they are currently co-starring in the new TV series "Dragon Movie".

Both of them are ballet dancers, and next I will make a movie about ballet, "Black Swan."

"The name "Black Swan" is good. It should be related to the ballet Swan Lake, but it also implies an unexpected incident. Is this what it means?"

Su Changqing became more and more suspicious that he was guilty of committing a crime. Melulan Dora always looked normal, maybe she was just concerned about his subsequent development.

"You are very smart, that's what you mean."

"Black Swan" is also an Oscar-winning film, and one of the few that can be adapted. Su Changqing is indeed planning to create it for Mu Mu and Liu Yufei.

Then he has three options, and it depends on which one starts filming to guarantee an Oscar.

It was obvious that Merulan Dora liked to listen to his stories, so Su Changqing briefly introduced the plot of "Black Swan".

The film will tell a supernatural thriller about ballet, a story about inner demons or schizophrenia.

The heroine is a senior ballet dancer who finds herself trapped in competition with another dancer. As a major performance approaches, many troubles intensify. She is not sure about her so-called competitor.

Was it a supernatural hallucination, or maybe she was just hallucinating it.

Mu Mu and Liu Yufei will respectively play two ballet dancers, one of whom is imagined by the other. They will use a stage of obsession to achieve the ultimate perfection, which is both real and fake, real and illusory.

After listening to this, Merulan Dora shook her head and exclaimed: "I heard you tell three stories today. They are all very exciting. It's hard to imagine how they were created."

After drinking until almost midnight, they had to go back. The two of them stood on the cold street. Su Changqing was dazed and hugged Merulan Dora: "This city is so big. If we accidentally get separated, we may never see each other again in our lifetime."

.”

This is a line from one of his favorite movies. I'm afraid Melulan Dora doesn't know it.

The taxi came, and Merulan Dora and Su Changqing got in the car together.
