Chapter 130: Berlin Film Queen (3)

Ye Sui and Chen Shu walked away slowly. The originally gloomy cemetery didn’t feel scary anymore, thanks to the lovers just now.

Ye Sui held Chen Shu’s hand, and the two of them had a second date in the cemetery. The last time they were abroad, they had helped a foreign ghost. Back then, they also went to the cemetery.

The mood was completely different between that time and now, but the person who accompanied her was always Chen Shu.

Chen Shu noticed Ye Sui’s gaze and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Ye Sui smiled and clasped Chen Shu’s hand tightly, “I think you are too handsome. When I saw the red handkerchief on the tree just now, I thought there was another female ghost who fell in love with you.”

Chen Shu smiled and said solemnly. “I can’t see them anyway.”

What they did and said had nothing to do with him.

Ye Sui smiled. The two got into the car and drove away. The shooting for the Hollywood film “Besieged By All Sides” had started.

It had been a while since Ye Sui’s hidden marriage turmoil.

Pei Ning had an announcement today and had not yet joined the group. The first day was Ye Sui’s solo scene.

Before the filming of the first scene started, the crew was still arranging the set. Ye Sui was reading the script when she heard a familiar voice.

“If you want to enter Hollywood, a few rumors are nothing. The road ahead is still long. Don’t let others influence your performance.”

Ye Sui stopped her movements and turned to look, just in time to meet Director Zhou’s sight. He was indeed looking at her, and the sentence just now was directed to her.

She could almost see the encouragement in Director Zhou’s eyes.

“What are you looking at?” Director Zhou said solemnly, “I’ll start shooting right away. Get ready.”

People in the entertainment industry said that Director Zhou had a bad temper, and he would scold the actors at least once in a scene. However, Ye Sui felt that the guy was not as terrible as they described.

It was just that the way he cared about people was really special.

Now that he had recognized Ye Sui’s acting skills, Director Zhou would not worry about how Netizens discussed her. He knew that the heroine he had selected was definitely the best.

If other people’s comments could influence an actor’s acting skills and the quality of a film, then the film would be jeopardized.

The first scene started shooting outside at a wine shop. The gate looked bleak and lonely.

There was a jug of wine on the table and a person sitting on the chair. She was slender but not thin, her face was a little cold, and her smile was a bit evil.

A wicked girl, alive and well.

The table didn’t move, but the wine glass did. The wine in the glass shook slightly. Although her surroundings were silent, there were dangers all around.

A battle began.

“Yes, the killer I want gives off this kind of feeling!” After the first scene, Director Zhou held up the script and was so excited that his face turned red.

When Ye Sui came out onto the stage and looked at the camera, Director Zhou returned to his former coldness.

Director Zhou was looking straight ahead. He said casually, “If you keep acting with this attitude, one day, you will be recognized by the public.”

Don’t be arrogant and impetuous. This is just an experience for a young actor.

Ye Sui smiled. “Okay.”

At the same time, the biographical film ‘Ning Ling’ was about to be released.

Because of Ye Sui’s recent scandal, the ‘Ning Ling’ publicity team was very low-key. The poster listed the awards that the film had won at the Berlin Film Festival. When Ye Sui was mentioned, her title of the Berlin Film Queen was used.

Unfortunately, in this month’s production, there was another commercial blockbuster, the action film ‘Shudder’ starring Pei Ning and Cen Yu.

The two leading stars of ‘Shudder’ were able to put up a serious fight at the box office. Before Ye Sui appeared, Pei Ning was the female star with the highest commercial value.

Two of the most commercially valuable actors, combined with a well-made and well-conceived trailer, made the film hit a billion.

‘Ning Ling’ had Director Xi Zhao and Berlin Film Queen Ye Sui as credits. Even the team members were those who had cooperated with the famous actress Ning Ling.

Yet, the film ‘Shudder’ was seriously challenging ‘Ning Ling’ head-on. They believed that Ye Sui’s recent incident would affect her movie’s performance at the box office. They wanted to prove to the audience that even if it was Director Xi Zhao, the film industry had already changed.

A poll was started on a well-known website, “‘Ning Ling’ and ‘Shudder,’ which one do you want to watch more?”

After the vote, ‘Shudder’ won by an overwhelming majority.

As the release time was getting closer and closer, the pre-sales of ‘Shudder’ was far ahead of ‘Ning Ling.’

The number of people who wanted to see ‘Ning Ling’ was small, the pre-sales were low, and the gap between the leading actors’ public praise was wide. No matter from what aspect, ‘Ning Ling’ would definitely lose at the box office.

Was Director Xi Zhao’s work going to be destroyed in Ye Sui’s hands?

With much anticipation, ‘Shudder’ and ‘Ning Ling’ were released on the same day. The former had high attendance, while the latter’s screenings were barely half-filled.

In the early morning of the first day of Ning Ling, a large number of one-star reviews appeared on Douban. Their comments were surprisingly consistent.

“I haven’t watched the movie. This star is given to Ye Sui.”
