Chapter 60: The Arrival of the Big ShipJust like what Chen An and Han Sanping said. On the evening of March 3, the 23th Academy Awards was held as scheduled. "Titanic" received 14 nominations and won 11 awards, shocking the entire Hollywood. The truck driver also shouted 'I'm the king of the world!' at the award ceremony. What I mean is that I feel so good that I can shout out at the ceremony that I am the king of the world. But that's normal. If it were Chen An, he would have to give you a few words: 'Is this a cool guy?' Just thinking about that scene is exciting. On April 4, the film was officially released in China. The long-awaited movie fans began to rush to the theaters, wanting to witness this movie that won a huge victory at the Oscars and created a global box office miracle.
"Please wear your mask better. You're so beautiful that you'll attract so much attention." Chen An, who was wearing a mask in the ticket office of the cinema, whispered to Zeng Li who was also wearing a mask next to him. Chen An must watch the domestic premiere of "Titanic". It is a rare opportunity as he had only watched it on the computer in his previous life. Originally, he wanted to call Yu Jinghong, but the other party had a film contract and had no time, so Chen An had to call Zeng Li. As for the man, Chen Anke didn't have such an idea. It is also impossible to ask a man to accompany you to watch a romantic movie unless he is crazy. "Brother An, you are much more eye-catching than me." Zeng Li, who was wearing a mask, disagreed. Standing in the hall, Chen Anke, who was wrapped tightly in a baseball cap, a mask, and sunglasses, was much more eye-catching than himself. "I have no choice. If someone recognizes me, there's no point in watching this movie." Chen An, who was wrapped tightly, approached Zeng Li in a stealthy manner and said. Today, he is a famous director in China, especially among moviegoers in theaters, where he is still well-known. After queuing up to buy tickets, Chen An reached out and held Zeng Li's hand and walked towards the theater: "Follow closely, there are too many people." The movie schedule is very high, with more than one movie playing at the same time, and the crowd in the theater is a bit crowded. Zeng Li, held by Chen An's hand, followed him through the bustling crowd. Zeng Li, who was following behind him, could feel him leading her through the crowded crowd and the power coming from his hands. The two people who checked their tickets and entered the theater through the crowd found that the theater was already full of people waiting for the movie to start. The two of them were sitting next to the wall, and soon they found a seat and sat down. Only then did Chen An take off his equipment. The theater was quite dark, so there was no need to hide. "Take it off. Now that you're inside, there's no need to keep wearing it." "It's okay, I'll wear it for a while and wait until the movie starts." Zeng Li, who was sitting next to her, did not take off her mask immediately. She felt her face getting hot as Chen An pulled her like this. Although the theater was quite dark, she didn't know whether Chen An, who was sitting next to her, could see clearly. I'd better wear it for a while first.
Chen An didn't know what the other party was thinking, he just smiled and said, "You'll feel more comfortable if you take it off, but the movie is about to start. This movie is amazing, watch it carefully." Zeng Li nodded obediently. Soon, the film officially began to be shown, and apart from some opening credits, memories began to be told. The appearance of young Leo on the screen instantly caused many girls to scream. Even Chen An had to admit that he had to stay out of the spotlight for the time being. The film slowly unfolds and the story begins to be told, as the protagonist Jack successfully wins a ticket that takes him to his death. The story of the poor boy and the rich girl is loved by people all over the world. Especially this poor boy is very handsome. The heroine Rousi was quickly attracted to him. Jack, who had lived in the bottom of society since childhood, showed her a side of him that she had never seen before. The early stage is joyful. The poor boy Jack has his own charm and is neither humble nor arrogant towards the rich. Don't feel inferior because of your identity. The dance in the civilian cabin is the highlight of the movie, contrasting the lively cabin with the quiet scene of the rich. The two embraced each other at the bow, with the sunset as the background and beautiful music, and the picture was leisurely. In the end, the ship hit the iceberg, and Jack gave the only plank of escape to Rousi. And he stayed in the cold Atlantic Ocean without causing any waves. Each scene attracted the audience's attention, and many emotional audience members shed tears. Even Zeng Li next to her couldn't help but clench her fists tightly, feeling everything in the movie. In the end, the two people in love were separated by death, leaving only a memory, and Rousi also changed her surname to Jack. Expressing my love for him. The movie came to an end and the theme song sounded, bringing tears to the eyes of the audience in the entire theater. Of course, Chen An is not included. At this moment, he is really impressed. This is the unedited version. It’s really fucking awesome. Zeng Li next to her was also moved to tears as the background music sounded. This is the charm of "Titanic". The fact that it can resonate with audiences all over the world is also the reason for its success. Chen An, who was prepared, took out a tissue from his pocket and handed it to Zeng Li beside him, asking her to wipe her tears. "Stop crying, your face is all red. The movie is over." Chen An reminded Zeng Li when he saw that she didn't respond. "No, Brother Ang, such a touching movie, how could you not feel anything at all?" Zeng Li reacted and immediately took a tissue to wipe the corners of her eyes. Of course Chen An couldn't react, it wasn't the first time he had seen this: “I admire the love that takes three days to fall in love with and is willing to sacrifice one’s life for, but I cannot resonate with it. However, I have to admit that this is an excellent and touching movie.”
"Otherwise you wouldn't be crying like a little kid. The movie is over. Pack up and I'll take you out for a good meal to cheer you up." After saying that, Chen An put on his hat, mask and sunglasses and equipped himself. The film ended and the audience began to leave. Chen An left the theater with Zeng Li as before. After leaving the cinema, Chen An got into the car and took off his equipment. "Brother An, can our movie also be so touching?" Zeng Li, who was sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly asked Chen An curiously. Chen An thought about this question and said, "Well, it's hard to say, but I am still full of confidence." As for whether it can be compared with "Titanic", Chen An didn't want to answer. This kind of thing depends on personal preference. If we compare the results, then it is definitely not good enough. The production alone cost over 200 million US dollars. Although Trucker was a good movie, it was also a big overspending movie. Chen An estimated that the box office revenue wouldn't even cover the production budget, so it would be good enough if it could reach a quarter of that. Today, the domestic film industry is like a chasm compared to Hollywood, and the publicity and promotion expenses are something Chen An dare not even think about. "But you also have to have some confidence in yourself. Our movie is not bad. It has been completed and will be released on National Day." Chen An told the other party about the release date. "My Sassy Girl" has also passed the review and is already being scheduled for release. What Chen An and Han Sanping finally agreed on was the National Day schedule, and they were determined to avoid "Titanic". The car was driving on the road, passing through the busy streets, and Chen An was looking for a place to eat. After finding a restaurant that looked good, Chen An parked the car and took Zeng Li in for a meal. When they got there and went in, they found it was a Western restaurant. After Chen An asked Zeng Li to order, he ordered some dishes at random. Chen An didn't have any idea about Western food, so he ordered some regular steak. That was it. There were not many people in the restaurant, so the two of them sat in a corner, which was quiet and convenient for chatting. "Brother An, are you and Sister Yu a couple?" Zeng Li, who rarely took the initiative to drink some wine, suddenly asked Chen An. After asking this question, Zeng Li felt a little regretful. Chen An looked at Zeng Li, whose cheeks were a little red as if she had drunk some wine: "Not really, why do you want to be the boss's wife?" Zeng Li's face turned even redder when she heard Chen An's joking answer: "Don't joke around, Brother An!" But after he finished speaking, he unconsciously relaxed his lips, as if the sadness that had just been caused by the movie had dissipated a lot. I feel like I have a cold. I feel dizzy.
