Chapter 1274 1376. Premiere of

"Death is not the end of life, but oblivion is." Nie Wei whispered softly.

Cheng Zimo, who was driving next to him, didn't hear clearly and asked in confusion: "Master, what did you say?"

"Nothing, drive seriously." Nie Wei smiled and said.

This sentence was left by him when he gave the song and comics to Alan. The original sentence came from a sentence in the 90th Oscar Best Feature Film "Coco". In Nie Wei's opinion, this sentence makes sense.

The most intuitive explanation is the gods that exist in major temples today.

Whether in China or abroad, some of these gods are fabricated, but in fact, more of them have real people as prototypes. Take China for example, Xu Zhenjun, Guan Shengdi, Lu Chunyang, these gods you can find the prototypes in real history.

Because of some deeds and contributions, they are still remembered by many people.

From a scientific point of view, the prototypes of these gods have lost their lives, but in people's hearts, they have always existed.

Furthermore, those big families will have ancestral halls, where many ancestors will be enshrined. They will worship their ancestors at a fixed time every year and pray for their ancestors to bless the family. In the hearts of these younger generations, these ancestors did not disappear from this business because of death, but continued to protect the family in another way and sense of existence.

In Nie Wei's view, these are another continuation of life.

And the other meaning of that sentence is just like this. As long as the family does not forget this person, then this person is still alive, but not living in this world, but living in everyone's memory.

And the meaning of this sentence is also in line with the song and MV.

Nie Wei knew very well that it was difficult to persuade Alan at that time with any words, and the best solution was to let her try to accept another truth. When she accepted another truth, the current problem would naturally be solved.

Now it seems that the effect seems to be very good. He has already known the good news that Alan's album sold well. Alan's tone on the phone was relaxed and happy, and she also told him about attending a dinner party in Xigong. Nie Wei could hear that she really let it go this time.

Nie Wei's filming went very smoothly.

Mr. Depp still sued his ex-wife in court, but this did not affect his filming state. Nie Wei even felt that Depp was in a particularly relaxed state, as if he had taken this filming as a vacation.

Of course, it may also be because he was in Europe and temporarily escaped the "troubles" in the United States.

The only thing that made Nie Wei dissatisfied was that Depp had too many of his own ideas, and seemed to be too deeply influenced by the previous "Pirates of the Caribbean" series. When playing the role of Grindelwald, there seemed to be a shadow of Captain Jack, that is, the kind of bohemian and neurotic feeling.

But this is not the Grindelwald described in the book, nor is it the Grindelwald that Nie Wei wants.

The Grindelwald that Nie Wei hopes for is a cunning, evil and majestic big boss, and he and Depp have had more than one quarrel for this.

Fortunately, he finally performed according to Nie Wei's request, but he also privately revealed more than once that he didn't want to work with Nie Wei again. Nie Wei didn't care about this. In fact, he didn't want to continue working with this actor full of personality. This was just one movie.

Although Nie Wei knew that there might be more than two subsequent works in this series, after all, the ending story of the second part also obviously left suspense, just to prepare for the sequel, but Nie Wei was also prepared to no longer accept the filming of this series.

After coming to Europe, he also visited JK Rowling for this purpose and told the lady his thoughts.

The latter expressed regret, but still respected Nie Wei's decision.

Originally, such a purely commercial film was not the type that Nie Wei liked. He felt that he was tightly bound by the original work in terms of scriptwriting and directing, and felt that he couldn't do his best. Moreover, most of the movies shot by Nie Wei had no sequels. Even if there were, he had never accepted a sequel. This time was an exception.

As for who will take over after Nie Wei gives up the director position of this series, Nie Wei is not worried at all that there will be no one. In fact, there are many directors eyeing this position, and there are even some Hollywood first-line directors among them.

What Nie Wei despises may still be a treasure in the eyes of others.

At the end of September, the crew's filming in Renton came to an end, and they will go to Paris to shoot the remaining one-third of the scenes. Taking advantage of the crew's transfer period, several actors went to various countries in batches to prepare for the release of the new "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them".

October 2, global synchronization.

Chinese fans are very satisfied with this time, because this is obviously arranged according to the Chinese National Day schedule.

In fact, as the total box office of Chinese movies increases every year, more and more Hollywood movies are beginning to lean towards the Chinese film market.

These movies either take care of the Chinese market in terms of release time, or add more Chinese elements to the movies.

Of course, at present, these trends are only due to the growing popularity of China as a box office, not because the Chinese film industry is increasingly recognized by Hollywood. Chinese films still have a certain gap in production compared to Hollywood, and it still takes time to catch up.

Originally, Depp was supposed to promote the film with Nie Wei in China, but the two sides did not get along so well during the filming, so it was decided that Depp and other actors except the protagonist would go to South Korea, Japan and the United States for promotion, while Nie Wei would take the two protagonists to promote the film in China.

This was only the first wave, and the two sides would exchange promotion areas later to try to take care of both.

The promotion lasted for about ten days, and the crew's preparations in Paris had been completed by then, so they could gather directly in Paris and finish the rest of the filming.

According to the plan, Nie Wei, Joseph and Nina's first stop was in China.

The three arrived in China on September 28th, and after only one night's rest, they started a four-day promotion the next day, including Kyoto, Mingzhu City, Shancheng, Yangcheng, Suzhou and Hangzhou, and Bingcheng, covering the whole country.

Each place will also have a number of film critics and reporters, plus two hundred to one thousand lucky fans, to hold a premiere. In fact, the premiere is mainly for those film critics to watch, so that they can write a film review after watching it, and try to talk about their feelings about the movie without spoiling the plot.

Doing so is also to build momentum for the movie premiere.

The first premiere was at nine o'clock in the morning on September 29th, at the Starry Theater in Kyoto.

As the largest cinema in China, the Starry Theater has long been a must-go for Nie Wei's movie premieres. The IMAX screening room that can accommodate 1,500 people makes fans feel shocked no matter how many times they come in.

As one of the first fans who has been with Nie Wei since his debut, Jing Han has unknowingly changed from a college student to a mother of a child.

Although she has family ties, she has handed over the management of the fan club to a trustworthy junior early on, but her love for Nie Wei has not diminished. She must support all of Nie Wei's new works.

This time, she got the ticket for the premiere in Kyoto through the fan club. She would rather pretend to be sick and take a leave to support Nie Wei's new movie.

Full of expectations, she came to the Starry Theater early in the morning. She didn't need to queue up and could enter with the movie ticket. The lady who checked the ticket even handed her a big box of popcorn and a big cup of Coke with a friendly smile, and reminded her that she could come to her for a refill if she finished eating before the movie started.

"The service is great." Jing Han held popcorn in one hand and Coke in the other, and walked happily into the screening room.

She was not unfamiliar with this place. Since the construction of this super luxurious cinema was completed, she has become a frequent visitor here, and she will not miss any premiere of Nie Wei's movies.

It can be said that Jing Han's idol throughout her youth has always been Nie Wei, and it has never changed.

And Nie Wei's achievements step by step have also made Jing Han extremely proud of this. No idol can do so well as Nie Wei.

Nie Wei also influenced Jing Han, making her work hard to become a better person, because in her opinion, only in this way can she keep up with her idol.

Walking into the fan area of ​​the screening hall, some girls who were arranging seats stopped their actions after seeing Jing Han, and all greeted Jing Han cordially.

"Sister Jing Han, good morning."

"Sister Jing Han, you are going to be late."

"President, I have reserved your seat for you, it's over there, I'll take you there."

A bunch of fan club administrators all greeted Jing Han enthusiastically, which also attracted the attention of many fans. They all looked at Jing Han very curiously, and wanted to know who this big sister was, and how so many administrators could greet her so enthusiastically.

Soon, someone gave these puzzled fans an answer.

"That's the first president of our fan club."

"Have you never heard of Sister Jinghan? She's a veteran of our fan club. When our current president first joined the club, she was Sister Jinghan's little follower."

"Most of these administrators were brought up by Sister Jinghan. Do you think she's awesome?"

There were constant exclamations. After Jinghan sat down, she felt that there were always people secretly looking at her from all sides. She didn't care about it. These rookie fans always liked to make a fuss.

Jinghan's attention was basically focused on the front row. Her position was very good. It should be one of the best seats in the viewing area of ​​this theater.

Not far from the front row, he saw Yuan Hong, Hu Ge who had just joined Huayi, and Director Xiaogang. Wang Zhonglei didn't see them. I think he should be welcoming guests at the door. This is what he loves to do most.

In addition, she also saw many well-known film critics. She could even clearly remember which of these film critics' articles about Nie Wei had a sensational impact.

"Li Ping, Blind Witness, the title of that film review is Blindness does not mean blindness of heart."

"The uncle over there is called Dafeng, and he also gave a very popular film review of The Martian, called Robinson on Mars."

"And the round-faced woman with glasses over there, she should be from Haidao, a very powerful film critic, and she is also a loyal fan of Nie Wei, and you can see her at almost every premiere."

Jing Han ate popcorn while silently acknowledging others, after all, there was still some time before the premiere, so he could kill some boring time.

Just as she was looking for the next familiar target, she suddenly felt someone gently touch her arm twice. She turned around and saw that it was a little girl with twin ponytails next to her. She looked very young, just like she was in junior high school.

"Sister, what are you looking at?"

Jinghan smiled and told her that she was looking at the film critics who came today.

The little girl with twin ponytails was very surprised to hear this answer: "Sister, do you know those film critics?"

"I think they are old friends." Jinghan replied with a smile. It happened that Haidao looked back at this time and noticed Jinghan. After seeing Jinghan, she also smiled and waved at Jinghan. Jinghan smiled and waved back.

It was a simple encounter, but when Jinghan put away her hand and looked back at the little girl with twin ponytails next to her, she found that she was looking at her with a completely admiring look.

Jinghan thought, she was really too young.

"Sister, you are so amazing. You really know those film critics." The little girl with twin ponytails shouted with admiration.

"Haha, nothing." Jinghan pretended to be indifferent, but she was still very happy in her heart.

The more Jinghan acted indifferent, the more the little girl with twin ponytails admired her, and always felt that this big sister was so powerful.

Especially after her companions quietly popularized Jinghan's identity to her, the little girl with twin ponytails looked at Jinghan with little stars in her eyes.

This is different from worshipping Nie Wei. In her opinion, Nie Wei is a high idol, but the worship of Jinghan is completely based on the other party's identity and ability. Jinghan is not her idol, but she is the goal she is striving for at this moment.

The little girl with twin ponytails gradually turned into a hundred thousand whys, asking Jinghan non-stop.

Perhaps because of the experience of parenting, Jinghan's patience was well tempered. From beginning to end, she was not impatient, answering the little girl with twin ponytails one after another, which seemed very superficial and childish to her.

Occasionally, she would ask the little girl with twin ponytails a few questions.

For example, why do you like Nie Wei?

"He's handsome!" the girl with twin ponytails answered without hesitation.

But maybe she also felt that this answer was too superficial, and quickly added: "Brother Nie Wei is not only handsome, but also super talented. He can act, make movies, and write songs. The recent song "I Have Nothing in My Hands" is so beautiful. I watched the MV again and again, and cried for half a pack of tissues..."

Thanks to Zhizun Mengge for his generous reward of 1,000, and thank Kong Shouhu and Xinghe Yingchangkong for their generous rewards.
