Chapter 135 Before the screening, Karasawa’s fork in the road
Chapter 135 Before the screening, Karasawa’s fork in the road
The next day, Tang Ze, who came to pick up Liu Yifei as scheduled, learned about her illness.
Tang Ze, who was slightly worried, wanted to meet him, but Liu Xiaoli didn't allow him.
""The King of Kung Fu" did not do well at the box office, so Hua Yi stopped cooperating with her. After hearing this, Yifei caught a cold and developed a fever."
"She's very uncomfortable now, and I don't want you to disturb her."
Tang Ze understood that great joy and great sorrow can easily make people nervous, so he said: "Auntie, after Liu Yifei recovers from illness, please inform her to arrive in Cannes before the 14th, and I will send someone to pick her up in advance."
After Tang Ze was about to leave, Liu Xiaoli finally couldn't bear it and said again: "Aren't you going to wait for her with your team?"
Tangze had no choice but to apologize: "Sorry, Auntie, if it's later, Cannes will be closed, and the film may not have time to participate in the exhibition."
"I will definitely send someone to pick her up, you believe me."
Liu Xiaoli nodded lukewarmly and watched Tang Ze leave.
It’s something you don’t cherish!
When my daughter signs up for WMA and sees a wider world, you, Tangze, will just become a passerby.
When Liu Yifei woke up with a splitting headache and heard Liu Xiaoli say that Tang Ze had led the "Good Will Hunting" team to Cannes, he was stunned.
How could this happen? She didn't receive the notification at all...
It's impossible for Tang Ze to forget her, right?
Subconsciously, Liu Yifei wanted to call Tang Ze and ask.
But because of her resistance, she gave up again.
Just when Liu Yifei didn't know what to do, Liu Xiaoli said to her: "Qianxi, don't hesitate, sign for WMA."
Before Liu Yifei said she wanted to consider it, Liu Xiaoli suddenly begged: "Qianxi, don't think about it, and don't bother yourself because of Tang Ze."
"If you promised her not to sign with other companies, then you really wouldn't sign with her. Did she promise anything to you?"
"If not, why did you give him a promise?"
Liu Yifei was speechless for a moment.
Why do this...
Maybe she just doesn't want to embarrass him, maybe she just wants to get closer to him.
She couldn't explain it herself.
Liu Xiaoli added: "Sissi, don't blame mom for talking too much. In fact, you have changed a lot in these few months."
"I know that you want to change yourself for Tang Ze and become better, and you want her to know how good you are."
"Can someone as sharp as Tang Ze really not notice anything? Or is he just pretending to be stupid on purpose?"
"Maybe he just feels that you are not good enough in his heart, so he selectively ignores your feelings."
"Sign with WMA, go out of the country, go overseas, go to Hollywood, go to a bigger stage, and make yourself better."
"That way, he will pay attention to you and care about you."
"Men are such creatures. The more they don't get, the more they care about it."
Liu Xiaoli stroked Liu Yifei's hair: "Even, I hope that when you become better, you can forget about Tang Ze."
"Are you happy that you suppressed your feelings for him? Are you happy?"
"You can persist, but my mother is very sad."
"I'm sorry, Mom..." Liu Yifei lowered his head and looked at his toes outside his slippers.
Liu Xiaoli can see her wavering.
Finally, she took out a recording pen and put it on the table: "Sissi, wake up, you are not important to Tang Ze."
Liu Yifei trembled and opened the recording. There were only two conversations between Tang Ze and Liu Xiaoli.
This can be regarded as the answer to the reason why Liu Yifei did not receive the notification.
"Aren't you going to wait for her with your team?"
"Sorry, Auntie, if it's later, Cannes will be closed, and the film may not have time to participate in the exhibition."
Just after he sobered up, Liu Yifei’s mind was already in a mess.
In addition, she had been in a bad mood, so when she heard this, she immediately shed tears.
Is that so?
She is not important!
It wasn't so important that Tang Ze didn't want to spare some time to wait for her.
So all this time, she seemed to be able to feel Tang Ze's closeness, but could not get his response.
Therefore, it is difficult for her and him to understand each other, and she cannot blame herself for being timid and afraid to speak frankly.
The fact is that she has no courage, and Tang Ze did not give her courage.
Because she is not important!
Finally, Liu Yifei made up his mind.
Sign WMA.
Maybe she really needs to get better for it to be important.
……
On May 12, the creative team of Karasawa has settled down in Cannes.
At this time, the road section near the Cinema Palace can be said to be crowded with tourists, and traffic jams are a common occurrence.
It took a lot of effort for Karasawa to find the hotel where he would stay.
The original film of "Good Will Hunting" has also been successfully submitted for review, and now we are waiting for the screening of the film.
"Wow, there are too many people here. Fortunately we didn't arrive too late, otherwise we wouldn't be able to find a place to stay."
In the hotel, Zhou Jielun complained casually and found Tang Ze staring out the window and asked, "What are you thinking about? If you feel too idle, we can have a competition."
As a result, Tang Ze didn’t reply to him at all.
Because Karasawa's mind is neither on the movie nor on the people he knows, but on Munikawa, which is far away from here.
Is it today? That unparalleled disaster.
After coming to this world, facing certain established history, he thought many times about what he could do.
But after thinking about it for a long time, I found that I couldn't do anything.
However, he was the only one who knew about the disaster in advance. If he did nothing and looked at the life and death of others with cold eyes, he would not allow it.
He can be selfish, he can be indifferent, and he can harm the interests of his enemies for his own benefit.
But he cannot ignore life.
This is the minimum dignity a person should have.
Therefore, he finally decided to do what he could.
Since May, Tang Ze has contracted more than 100 tour buses to go to the county with the largest number of victims in memory. In the form of a 1 yuan lottery, he will take people on a free tour of the country, with food and accommodation included.
Departure collectively on May 11th.
According to the news from Lao Wu, the number of people they have brought with them now exceeds a thousand.
This is the limit of what Karasawa can do.
Not only is Tianze’s financial resources insufficient, in fact these expenses combined are less than 10 million.
Also in terms of scale, if you rent too many cars, you may attract the attention of relevant departments.
Save as many as you can, Tangze said to himself.
At 14:28 minutes and 4 seconds in the afternoon, Chen Guhuan, Zhou Jielun and others received a heartbreaking news.
The earthquake still happened, and it was very large.
Later, the number of casualties and losses were also reported.
Including those who also participated in Cannes, director Jia Zhangke of "Tale of 24 Cities", director Wu Yushen of "Red Cliff", and director Wang Jiawei of "Ashes of Time: Ultimate Edition".
Everyone was distracted and lost the excitement of waiting for the movie results to be announced.
Tang Ze opened Lao Wu again with a heavy voice: "Are you ready for 10 million? And the song I wrote, please donate it."
"Well, don't be too high-profile."
Since Tangze was more mentally prepared than others, he was ready to donate money and sing songs for disaster relief.
He is the first person to donate.
But he didn't intend for anyone to know, and he didn't want to show off such a thing.
Donating money is the last effort he can make.
After today's heavy day passed, Tang Ze still had no news of Liu Yifei's arrival, nor did he receive a call from her.
He called, but what he didn't expect was that he couldn't get through.
Tang Ze was a little impatient. In fact, if he just came to play, it wouldn't matter if he couldn't come.
But tomorrow is the day for the film to participate in the exhibition, and he is confident that "Good Will Hunting" will be qualified as the opening film.
Didn’t Liu Yifei miss this common honor?
He had no choice but to learn about the situation there through Lao Wu.
Lao Wu quickly went over to ask in person.
Then I learned that Liu Yifei did not plan to go to Cannes and would sign a contract with WMA tomorrow.
Tangze was a little distressed after receiving the news.
Do I still need to sign the WMA?
Is this also Liu Yifei’s destined fate?
No, if there really was such a thing as fate, he would not have come to this world.
WMA is a dead end with no way to go, so he has to persuade Liu Yifei one last time.
If the result remains unchanged, he has fulfilled his obligation as a friend.
But what should he do?
Among the people he knew, his friendship with Liu Yifei was relatively average.
To succeed in persuading him, he can only go back and face some of the things he ignored.
But if we leave at this time, what will happen to the opening ceremony?
What if he is too late to get back and the Cannes judges think that his behavior disrespects Cannes and withdraw the award that was originally intended for "Good Will Hunting"?
Bearing ideological pressure that should not be endured is what people who know too much have to face.
Tang Ze once again has to make a choice.
At the same time, the disaster relief song Karasawa gave to Wenchuan has been played on a loop in this disaster-ridden place.
Just like its lyrics:
"If you have experienced my sweetness, I am willing to live up to your wishes."
"It's not in vain, I'm willing to go forward bravely, every day in this prosperous age."
It seems to give courage and strength to the people affected by the disaster.
It also seems to give the two lines that should have overlapped together, the fate of drifting apart, the power to make a new choice.
I only hope that this prosperous age will be as you wish, and all the hardships will be like smoke.
