Chapter 891 991. Ugly
The Saturn Awards are not as well-known as the Oscars in China, but in Europe and the United States, this award is no less famous than the Oscars. It is also known as the Oscars of science fiction movies.
This is an award ceremony dedicated to the selection of outstanding science fiction films, and its selection direction is more in line with the audience's preferences, so this award is even more popular than the Oscars to a certain extent.
"The Martian" was selected for the Saturn Award for Best International Film.
Compared with the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, Nie Wei pays more attention to this award.
In addition to the fact that this award is more promising for Nie Wei, more importantly, winning this award also represents the affirmation of Nie Wei in the Hollywood science fiction circle.
Nie Wei is in a very good mood after being shortlisted for two awards in a row. In addition, the filming of "Inception" is about to start. It has been smooth sailing for Nie Wei recently.
"Inception" has been scheduled to be officially launched in September. It will use Pearl City as the main shooting location, and will also go to Edo Castle in Japan, Apple City in the United States, and the romantic capital of France.
As the heroine, Zhang Ziyi has been training in action training for more than two months. In Zhang Ziyi's words, she feels that she can open a martial arts gym if she is not an actress in the future.
Of course, her speech was 'ridiculed' by Nie Wei.
In the eyes of an expert like Nie Wei, although Zhang Ziyi has dancing skills, so she learns moves quickly, but in the opinion of an expert like Nie Wei, it's just a show of fancy tricks, which looks good, but when it comes to those who are really capable or physically stronger, it's not so good. It’s no use anymore.
Of course, Nie Wei also knew that Zhang Ziyi was joking.
How could she, a big star, open a martial arts gym? With Zhang Ziyi's fame and acting skills, if nothing unexpected happened, she would have been a big name in the industry until she was eighty years old.
During this period, in addition to occasionally acting with Zhang Ziyi, Nie Wei mostly went to Thunder Technology to instruct the technicians on how to create the special effects he wanted.
Although the filming of the movie has not officially started yet, the special effects team has already taken action and made preparations in advance.
Nie Wei also shared some ideas with them. He did not ask them to present 100% of what Nie Wei wanted, but at least asked them to achieve more than 90%.
In the remaining time, Nie Wei spends more time with his family.
Especially after Zhou Duoduo entered high school recently, she seemed to have entered a period of youth rebellion, and she often played late with her friends.
If it weren't for the fact that there were bodyguards who were constantly watching over and reporting to them at all times, Zhou Aiguo would have wanted to take Zhou Duoduo home several times, but even so, it still caused Zhou Aiguo and Su Qing to worry and have headaches, for fear that the bodyguards would not take care of them. , the child was bullied.
For this reason, Zhou Aiguo secretly sent two bodyguards to Zhou Duoduo, who followed Zhou Duoduo not far away every day to protect her.
At the same time, Zhou Aiguo also contacted Nie Wei, hoping that he could communicate more with Zhou Duoduo. In Zhou Aiguo's view, what Zhou Duoduo listens to most on weekdays is Nie Wei's words. As an elder brother, if he is willing to persuade Her words are definitely better than what I, a father, can say.
After all, there was a big age difference between him and Zhou Duoduo, and there was a generation gap, but Zhou Duoduo didn't have so many scruples about communicating with Nie Wei.
After receiving Zhou Aiguo's request, Nie Wei rushed to Zhou Duoduo's school immediately.
Even though Zhou Duoduo has entered the rebellious stage, her academic performance has not improved at all. This is the main reason why Zhou Aiguo and Su Qing want to take care of her but don't know how.
After all, most parents are worried about their children's playfulness, mainly because they are afraid of affecting their academic performance. However, in a key high school in Kyoto such as Huaqing Affiliated Middle School, Zhou Duoduo's academic performance can be ranked among the top ten in her grade. This is really what makes them a parent. Can't find fault with it.
Nie Wei asked Luo Kai to drive her nanny car to the school gate. After calling Zhou Duoduo and telling her that he would pick her up at the school gate today, Nie Wei spent time reading magazines. While waiting for Zhou Duoduo to finish class.
"Nie Wei, how long has it been since you and Duoduo saw each other?" Luo Kai was bored, so he took Nie Wei to chat, and the topic naturally revolved around Zhou Duoduo, who was going to talk to him later.
"It's been more than two months, right?" Nie Wei thought for a while and answered uncertainly.
He has been busy with movies for a while. He traveled all over the country and sometimes went abroad. He came home only a handful of times, and each time he only stayed for a short time.
He often bought gifts for Zhou Duoduo, but the two of them also met once during this period, and Zhou Duoduo complained about him for a long time that time.
"You are really too busy." Luo Kai sighed: "My daughter is also busy all day long. She hasn't had a good meal with her child for a long time. Every time she comes back, her child is asleep. I leave very early in the morning. I used to take my children to school, but now I leave it all to the nanny.”
"Brother Luo Kai, what you said is too exaggerated."
"Is it an exaggeration? I don't think it is an exaggeration at all." Luo Kai replied: "Several times, my children asked me why my mother hasn't come home yet. I didn't know how to answer him. Looking at his pitiful look, I I feel sorry for you.”
"Brother Luo Kai, there's no need to complain. Can I give her a holiday?" Nie Wei finally heard it. Luo Kai was obviously asking for a holiday for Luo Yuan.
"Remember not to say that I was the one who said it, just say that you are too tired to see her." Luo Kai turned around and told Nie Wei with an embarrassed expression.
However, Nie Wei still had to remind Luo Kai: "Brother Luo Kai, I can give her a holiday, but what if she doesn't accept it?"
"That's why I asked you to say that. You are the boss. How can she not listen to you?"
"That's possible. Anyway, if Luo Yuan forces me to ask why I force her to take a holiday, don't blame me for being disloyal." Nie Wei patted Luo Kai's shoulder and felt that the other party shuddered when he heard what he said.
At this moment, a noise suddenly came from the originally quiet courtyard, and then a group of students came out of the teaching building. Everyone walked towards the school gate in groups of three or two, laughing and joking.
"Duoduo, are you really not going to KTV with us today? Wang Qiang from Class 2 told us yesterday that he would treat us, and he did it for your face." Zhou Duoduo also has two friends, one of whom is a high school girl with long chestnut hair. Asked Zhou Duoduo, obviously wanting Zhou Duoduo to accompany them to play.
"Didn't I tell you that my brother will pick me up after school today? I really don't have time. Besides, Wang Qiang and I have nothing to do with each other. We are not even friends. Besides, I don't need him to treat me." Zhou Duoduo snorted in dissatisfaction, obviously not interested in the "Wang Qiang" mentioned by her friend.
The girl with chestnut hair looked a little depressed when she heard what Zhou Duoduo said.
"It's boring for Xiaobing and I to play without you at KTV."
"Then let's change another day. We don't have to go today." Zhou Duoduo was very open-minded.
"That's the only way. Xiaobing, are you going home or going shopping? I know a new cold drink shop. Its luxury ice cream boat is affordable and delicious. Do you want to go together?"
The girl called by the chestnut-haired girl was a girl with a student hairstyle, glasses, and a well-behaved look.
After hearing her friend's question, the girl shook her head and replied, "I'm trying to lose weight recently and can't eat sweets."
"Oh, it doesn't matter if I eat this meal."
"It's easy to say, I'm not like you, you can't gain weight no matter how much you eat. If I eat this meal today, I may not be able to lose weight in a week, so I don't want it."
"I also want to gain some weight, I'm too thin."
"Your words are very hateful." Zhou Duoduo and Xiaobing answered in unison.
Several girls were laughing and joking, and soon they were about to reach the school gate. The girl named Xiaobing asked Zhou Duoduo curiously: "Is the brother who picked you up your brother? Why haven't I heard you mention that you have a brother? Isn't it written as 'boyfriend' and read as 'brother'?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiaobing couldn't help but exclaimed, and then covered her forehead with a look of grievance, looking at Zhou Duoduo who just wanted to 'commit a crime', and asked puzzledly: "Why did you hit me suddenly?"
"Who told you to talk nonsense? That's my brother." Zhou Duoduo said dissatisfiedly.
"But I never heard you mention that you have a brother." The chestnut-haired girl next to her also asked in confusion.
"Why do I keep talking about my brother every day?" Zhou Duoduo replied.
"Isn't your brother ugly, so you are embarrassed to let us see him? Don't worry, we won't show disgusted expressions later." The chestnut-haired girl patted her chest and promised.
Zhou Duoduo had nothing to say to these two stupid companions with big imaginations. At the same time, she also wanted to see what expressions these two guys who thought her brother was "ugly" would have when they saw her brother.
Zhou Duoduo took two friends out of the school gate and saw Nie Wei's conspicuous nanny car parked across the road, flashing the lights at her.
Zhou Duoduo immediately knew that Nie Wei had seen her in the crowd, and immediately waved happily towards the nanny car.
"Where is your brother? Why can't I see him?" The two friends looked in the direction Zhou Duoduo waved, except for a luxurious nanny car that was more conspicuous, no one responded at all.
"My brother is in the car, come to me quickly." Zhou Duoduo pulled the two friends who were still looking for someone across the zebra crossing, and then walked straight to Nie Wei's nanny car.
When Zhou Duoduo stopped in front of the nanny car, the two friends were stunned.
"Is this your brother's car?" the chestnut-haired girl asked in a low voice, her expression full of surprise, and Xiao Bing beside her looked similar.
After all, Zhou Duoduo usually didn't show how rich she was, whether in her dress or travel expenses, but the luxurious car in front of them made them unable to associate her with Zhou Duoduo at all.
Before the two friends came to their senses, Luo Kai, who was driving in front, had already rolled down the window and greeted Zhou Duoduo.
"Duoduo, long time no see."
With his greeting, Zhou Duoduo's two friends instantly focused their attention on Luo Kai's face, looking at him without scruples, which scared Luo Kai instead, thinking that high school students these days look at people so directly? His eyes were fiery.
Fortunately, these girls only looked at them for a few times and then retracted their gazes.
However, Luo Kai hadn't waited to breathe a sigh of relief from the strong gaze just now, and the next second he heard the two girls' whispers but very clear muttering, and the content almost made him gasp.
"I don't look ugly."
"Not handsome either."
"And a little old."
"That's right, what should I do? I can't call him brother, but uncle is okay."
"Hold on, don't embarrass Zhou Duoduo."
"That's enough, you two." Zhou Duoduo turned around and glared at the two friends, then apologized to Luo Kai embarrassedly: "Brother Luo Kai, I'm sorry, they thought you were my brother, they misunderstood."
"It's okay, it's okay." Luo Kai said it was okay, but he was crying in his heart, and he was very depressed and wondered if he was really old.
The two girls were scolded by Zhou Duoduo, and they also found that they recognized the wrong person. They smiled embarrassedly at Luo Kai and apologized, and then they were more curious about what Zhou Duoduo's brother looked like.
"Let's get in the car first." Zhou Duoduo had already walked into the car at this time. First, she sweetly called Nie Wei who was sitting in the car, and then greeted the friends outside the car, ready to let them take a ride.
The two friends walked to the door with great curiosity. Before they got in the car, they were already surprised by the interior of the nanny car.
It didn't have the luxurious feeling they imagined, but it gave people a fresh and natural look, and the interior of the car was so clean that they even felt afraid to step on it.
Until the two of them walked into the car and saw the man sitting next to Zhou Duoduo in the back seat, they immediately screamed so loudly that they could almost shatter the glass.
"Nie Nie Nie Nie Nie Nie..."
"Nie Wei!!!"
"Am I seeing right?"
"Hello." Nie Wei smiled and greeted the two dumbfounded girls, and then introduced himself: "I am Nie Wei, Zhou Duoduo's brother."
"Is it really Nie Wei? I am not dreaming." After recovering from the initial shock of seeing Nie Wei, the two girls hugged each other excitedly, jumping while hugging, looking at Nie Wei while jumping, and muttering non-stop.
"It's so embarrassing." Zhou Duoduo saw her two friends making a fool of themselves, and buried her head behind Nie Wei in embarrassment, saying, "From now on, I don't know these two people."
The two girls were excited for a long time before they sat down, and then told Luo Kai their home addresses.
They didn't feel it when they were excited just now, but now that they were quiet, the two girls were shy at the same time. They wanted to look back at their idol, but they were afraid of disturbing Nie Wei. They looked like they wanted to but didn't dare to, not to mention how tangled they were in their hearts.
In the end, the chestnut-haired girl couldn't help her curiosity and thought of a way. She took out her mobile phone and sent the questions she wanted to ask to Zhou Duoduo.
