Chapter 873: Qu Lingyun’s New Movie, Calling Him Brother Nine (1)
Director Qin and the assistant director went to find her.
Meanwhile, Qiuqiu’s live stream was eerily silent.
Even the chat seemed to be devoid of activity, with only a few scattered question marks and exclamation points.
Si Fuqing was not present, and several celebrities along with other art interns had gone with her to find the person.
Qiuqiu stood there holding her phone, looking somewhat bewildered and at a loss for what to do.
It took a full half-minute before the live stream showed any signs of life.
[???]
[Did I hear that right? Who gave the tickets?]
[You didn’t hear wrong, it was Si Fuqing. And she provided tickets for everyone in the production team too.]
[There are at least thirty or forty people in ‘the Birth of an Employee’ program’s guest and main creative teams. Thirty or forty tickets to the Glenn Film Festival… Quick, someone support me. Is Si Fuqing always this generous?]
Glenn Film Festival tickets were distributed internally and couldn’t be bought even with money.
If someone had extra tickets, they might sell them to others.
But dozens of tickets? Who could have so many?!
Wasn’t this like a wholesaler?
Qiuqiu’s smile faded gradually.
She had tagged along with Tong Luoyun’s team to attend the Glenn Film Festival but couldn’t get in without a ticket.
Yet Si Fuqing could casually hand out a bunch of tickets to the production team.
The comparison was harsh, to say the least.
Qiuqiu pursed her lips and lost interest in streaming.
She hastily turned off her phone and left the scene.
On the other side.
Si Fuqing was holding a juice, chatting with Gu Wenzhu in a corner of Area A.
Her phone rang, and she answered, “Hello? Director Qin, I’m inside. You guys go ahead, I’m with my teacher. Don’t worry about me; the old man needs company.”
Gu Wenzhu felt gratified.
Yun Lan, his precious apprentice, was considerate. Unlike Qu Lingyun, who he only wanted to hit when he saw him.
“Oh, okay, stay with your teacher.” Director Qin nodded, “It’s my first time at the Glenn Film Festival, and I’m a bit nervous.”
Si Fuqing encouraged him, “Director Qin, you got this. Charge ahead boldly!”
Hearing this, Director Qin felt a surge of energy.
After a few steps, he realized something was off.
Who was Si Fuqing’s teacher?!
Director Qin’s expression grew serious.
As he pondered, he and the assistant director entered the festival.
Area A was where all the top actors and actresses from different countries, and other big names in the film industry, were gathered. Tong Luoyun was also there.
Area A had some tickets for other areas as well, which could be used to get resources. She had casually given some to Song Wenhua.
Such small favors meant nothing to Tong Luoyun.
The Glenn Film Festival was a lead-up to the Glenn Awards ceremony in June, and today they announced the shortlisted films.
Until a familiar figure took the stage.
The guests instantly became excited.
“Director Qu! It’s Director Qu!”
“Director Qu said he would announce news about his new movie. It seems to be true!”
“I wonder if he’s using new actors or veterans.”
The actors were all thrilled, watching the stage intently.
In the corner, Gu Wenzhu said to Si Fuqing, “I saw your schedule. You finish filming ‘The Nation’s Heroine’ in September, just in time to shoot his movie in October. This way, you’ll make it to next year’s Glenn Awards.”
Great Xia films hadn’t made it to the Glenn for many years, and Gu Wenzhu felt regretful.
Si Fuqing hesitated and gently suggested, “Isn’t it a bit rushed?”
“Not rushed at all.” Gu Wenzhu waved his hand, “As your teacher, I have complete faith in your ability. You always get it right in one take.”
Si Fuqing: “…”
She could already envision the terrifying scene of Qu Linyun waking her up in the middle of the night with a burst of inspiration.
Now she really wouldn’t have a single day off all year.
“It’s been a while since I’ve made an appearance. I’ve missed you all,” Qu Linyun said, tapping the microphone. “I haven’t made a movie in six years, but I’ve designed many pieces of jewelry and clothing, and traveled extensively, viewing countless landscapes.”
“Many friends in the industry have asked when I’ll make another movie. I’m pleased to announce that at the beginning of this month, I finally completed the script for my new movie. We will begin filming this year, and you can see it in theaters next year.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the audience erupted in astonished gasps.
Qu Linyun was proficient in many languages, but he always spoke Chinese in public events.
A simultaneous interpreter translated his words flawlessly beside him.
Immediately, all the actors present gazed at him with fervent eyes.
