I, Doctor in the US

"Ladies and gentlemen! Let's first take a look at the documentary!"

"Oh oh!!!"

Although the Sundance Film Festival is also a film festival, it is relatively not as famous, so there aren't as many rules.

During the award ceremony, things naturally become more relaxed.

Actually, among the three major film festivals in Europe, aside from some major awards, the smaller awards are quite casual as well.

And some of the prestigious critic awards in the United States are also quite straightforward when presented.

It's not that this world is entirely makeshift, but quite often it really is.

For example, at the Oscars, there might be a nationally known comedian as the host.

So at Sundance, why not find a relatively famous comedian locally to host?

And any artistic performances, dancing, singing, etc.

Let's skip those. Anyway, we have plenty of awards; there might not be enough time for them.

Of course, it's not so meager.

Hollywood still has quite a few famous stars and big shots, and there are plenty of directors too.

After all, it's been so many years.

It's just that the Sundance Film Festival isn't as solemn as those big film festivals or award ceremonies.

Overall, it's more casual, and there's more interaction between everyone.

First, the documentary awards are presented, and the award presenter is quite something.

A famous Hollywood star, Nicole Kidman, is the award presenter.

That's right, she's not just here for fun.

She's a top-tier star now, and the atmosphere livens up as soon as she interacts with the crowd.

Even if our film festival feels like a makeshift operation, there's celebrity support.

Not bad, not bad.

The news is definitely there.

But when it comes to the dramatic feature...

"The audience's choice for Best Picture... 'Infiltration'!"

Well, it won directly!

What about James Wan then?

"Sorry, Director James Wan has some personal matters, so I'll be accepting the award on his behalf."

Lead actress Charlize Theron came out to accept the award, which is really...

"Oh oh!"

No worries, many filmmakers and movie fans present didn't care.

The key is, Charlize Theron is truly beautiful.

Her accepting the award is quite pleasing to the eye, isn't it?

Moreover, it's likely that even if 'Infiltration' won other awards, Charlize Theron would probably be accepting them too.

This... definitely has an impact.

But purely from the perspective of presenting and accepting awards, the impact is very small.

However, most people attending the festival understand.

The film festival may seem like it's about screening films and presenting awards, but in reality, it's about business behind the scenes.

Now the director has something to do... could it be to discuss business?

If it's not to discuss business, then what about the business thereafter?

There are quite a few big companies at the Sundance Film Festival, and many people hope to snag some cheap independent films and distribute them themselves.

Of course, business discussions are mainly the investors' responsibility.

This film is quite special; the investor is a doctor, so where's this doctor?

Those who pay attention will notice that Zhou Mo Sen is not at this award ceremony either.

What's going on?

In this world, there aren't many people who pay attention.

And among such few attentive individuals, there's a very special presence.

She is Jennifer Connelly.

Honestly, she actually knows some inside information, but not completely.

The owner only told her that everything's OK.

And instructed her to continue attending normally.

Unexpectedly, the owner isn't here.

And even though her husband is here, along with the director and another screenwriter...

"What's wrong?"

"Oh, nothing, nothing."

Paul naturally noticed something, but just thought his wife had something on her mind.

Jennifer Connelly was actually very worried about Zhou Mo Sen, she even regretted telling him about James Wan's situation.

But not saying it would be worse.

As for now...

"For the drama category... Best Actor... Paul Bettany!"

Huh?

Won an award?

Jennifer Connelly immediately switched her state.

"That's great!"

"Aha!"

The couple embraced, truly an enviable pair.

But no one knows, they haven't had a married life for a long time.

But it doesn't matter, at least their feelings are still good.

Just the situation with the owner...

The husband was on stage accepting the award, very happy.

But Jennifer Connelly was worrying about someone else, which is really something.

However, her concern is justified, as Zhou Mo Sen and his group do have some risks.

In fact, it's not just her worrying; a few others are concerned too.

"Hopefully nothing will happen, right?"

"Idiot! How could the mentor have trouble!"

"Then we..."

"Act according to the plan."

Daddario, Ivan Mc, and the others have been having a great time these days.

And not seeing the master at the moment, they are indeed quite worried.

Fortunately, the master had mentioned some things before, though not too clearly.

But also told them not to worry.

More importantly, the few of them have their own plan too.

Only this plan needs to wait a bit longer.

Although there are many awards at the Sundance Film Festival, it eventually comes to an end.

Usually, there will be a drink party after the awards, which is even more important than the award ceremony itself.

Because such a party is a perfect occasion for business talks.

That is, it's the true key to the film festival.

At the party, Paul and Jennifer Connelly were quite popular.

After all, Paul was crowned as best actor, albeit at the Sundance Film Festival.

And Jennifer Connelly?

"Jenny, your choice was the right one."

Said with such kindness, it was of course Charlize Theron.

But, she seemed to have a hidden meaning in her words.

Jennifer Connelly pretended not to understand.

"Yes, I always make the right choices."

Though she had to act, she indeed had to, even if she didn't like it, there was no choice.

Yet, Charlize Theron is currently very famous, even though Jennifer Connelly became famous earlier.

But now there seems to be a trend of being overtaken.

Just like this...

"Those men are talking business, how about we enjoy our own time?"

Private time?

It seemed to sound quite good.

"That's a good idea."

Jennifer Connelly nodded, and Charlize Theron handed over a drink.

This action was very natural; Jennifer Connelly wasn't in a hurry to drink, she just held it, and then they found a slightly quieter place.

The actions of these two could be described as very usual.

The only unusual thing was that people like Daddario, Ivan Mc, also followed them.

This scene was noticed by someone.

She was the one who just served as the presenter for the Best Actor award, Scarlett Johnson!

This star, mature at the age of 20, found it very strange.

"What are those guys up to?"

Silently followed them.

...

Park City, Snow Mountain Villa.

Zhou Mo Sen did not attend the award ceremony for a reason.

And this reason was sitting beside him.

"Wow! This Descent Sect really seems worth learning about!"

James Wan, this guy, had just listened to that Bishop preach for quite a while, and his eyes were glowing now.

Really, it was baffling.

Indeed, Zhou Mo Sen had come to the site of the Saint Master's sermon by the Descent Sect.

In fact, upon his appearance, even though Bishop wore a mask, his eyes lit up.

Everyone considered each other rivals.

This scene was very interesting.

As for James Wan, this guy… he seemed curious about everything.

This time in Salt Lake City, upon hearing about the Descent Sect, he had to come and see.

Well, mainly because of that Warner.

Warner was actually the guy who saws his leg in the opening scene of "Saw 1".

Indeed, it was him, and actually, he was the screenwriter of "Saw", James Wan's best friend.

This guy, after hearing about the Descent Sect, was truly curious.

Previously, he heard about the Intermediate State Body, and was very curious.

So, there was nothing to say.

Just come.

Zhou Mo Sen also came, he wanted to pull these two guys away from here.

After all, this cult was no good.

But now…

"Everyone! Have you experienced the touch of the devil?!"

Bishop, this guy, indeed had something, his words were quite persuasive.

What does the touch of the devil mean?

"Saint Master! My leg hurts terribly! The doctor said it's bone cancer!"

Good heavens, here it comes?

Zhou Mo Sen thought to himself, but the white middle-aged man, who cried out in pain, had already been invited on stage.

Next… yes, cult's traditional methods.

Display miracles.

Cure the illness.

Can bone cancer be cured on the spot?

Bishop kept talking, but Zhou Mo Sen noticed his actions.

The Saint Master gave the middle-aged man a sip of some water.

After that, the middle-aged man seemed to... fall into a special state.

Somewhat akin to being unconscious, but only vaguely similar.

Even somewhat like a zombie.

Hmm… Zhou Mo Sen had roughly figured it out in his mind.

But after that, the middle-aged man recovered!

"It doesn't hurt! It doesn't hurt at all!"

In an instant, the whole site seemed to explode.

Many simply believed, many were cheering and heckling.

Just like this... in America here it's really nationwide anti-intelligence.

These guys are too easy to fool!

Zhou Mo Sen realized this, but he turned his gaze elsewhere.

Chris Pratt now was a chubby handsome guy, quite tall.

But now… Zhou Mo Sen's gaze came over, and he understood.

And what does Zhou Mo Sen's gaze mean?

Little Fatty, make a move!

Ahem… here it should be said: Please start your performance.

Suddenly!

Uh uh uh~

Chris Pratt seemed possessed, foaming at the mouth and convulsing all over!

In a swoosh, many people backed off a space.

A lot of the followers were stunned.

And Bishop was even more dazed… was this part of the arrangement?

Yet at this moment… Zhou Mo Sen stepped out directly.

"He needs a doctor! I am a doctor! Please move aside!"

Saying a doctor is needed in a cult?

Bishop immediately shouted, "He doesn't need a doctor!"

In an instant, the two were in direct confrontation!
