The Former Wife of Invisible Wealthy Man

Chapter 130.2 Berlin Film Queen (2)

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.

“Ye Sui deceived her fans, and I suggest that she should stop acting and go back to being the lady boss of Huarui. I will never watch her movies.”

Ye Sui did not defend herself, nor did she interact with fans on Weibo. The film crew also remained silent. Everything was quiet until the premiere.

Although it was the premiere, there were not many people in the cinema. Ye Sui’s scandal had indeed affected the box office. Some of the audience who bought tickets were Xi Zhao’s fans, while others were looking for the Berlin Film Queen’s award.

The movie began.

Ning Ling, played by Ye Sui, stepped into the showbiz circle with good expectations. Like every newcomer, Ning Ling had also experienced oppression and injustice.

But Ning Ling only paid attention to her acting skills, giving the character a soul. The aura and depth of her acting were very convincing.

Soon, she became an existence that every actor could only look up to.

When Ning Ling stood on the podium, her posture was upright and her smile was elegant. In the face of applause and lights, she was calm and unhurried. Her heart of acting remained persistent as always.

She was like a tough rose, standing proudly in the wind and rain.

She was Ning Ling, and also Ye Sui.

Ning Ling’s star journey was brilliant, but her life was not long. When she became sick, she lay in the hospital with the script in her hand.

Ning Ling’s hand gradually dropped, and the script slipped from it.

This beautiful actress passed away with her love of acting, with a body of regret and concern.

The big screen turned dark. The lights of the cinema came on and fell on everyone’s face.

The movie ended at two o’clock in the morning. It was clear that it was time for the end, but no one left. They stared at the screen as if they were still expecting something.

Was Ning Ling’s life really over? Why were their hearts empty, and they felt that the story was still going on?

Ye Sui’s face and her expressions remained in everyone’s minds. They could not disperse for a long time.

Her performance was shocking, her every move so real and touching.

It was precisely because of the harshness of the audience that they realized that ‘Ning Ling’ was hard to come by. If evaluated without prejudice, this film was definitely one of the best movies in the last five years.

That afternoon, a lot of five-star reviews suddenly showered praises on ‘Ning Ling’ on Douban.

These users were not bought by the crew. If one clicked on their personal homepages, they could clearly see that these people were senior movie fans. They had seen almost a thousand movies.

“It’s a pity that the film didn’t win the Golden Bear award. Ye Sui’s performance has really killed her ‘Little Flower’ tag now.”

“After going to the cinema to see Ning Ling, I came back to change the score.”

“Sorry, everyone. I also came to change the score. Ning Ling is really a good movie. Although Ye Sui did not do it right in reality, it does not affect her acting skills and how good this movie is.”

More and more low-scoring reviewers, after watching the film, changed their original one-star reviews to four- or five-stars.

Even if something happened to Ye Sui, what did it have to do with her performance in ‘Ning Ling’?

Netizens’ perception of Ye Sui was not as good as before, but in the movie theater, they cried and laughed because of her. Eventually, they burst into tears.

Everyone who hated Ye Sui had to admit that her portrayal of Ning Ling was persuasive. She not only showcased Ning Ling’s charm but had also added her own style.

The Berlin Film Queen had a well-deserved reputation.

They finally understood Director Xi Zhao’s comment on auditioning back then: “Only Ye Sui can play Ning Ling well.”

The high praise attracted more audiences to the cinema, and the attendance rate increased sharply. There were even some people who watched the movie twice or thrice. The movie’s box office performance was gradually rising.

Ye Sui had done it. Even if the audience didn’t like her, they would still go to the cinema to see her films.

Pei Ning’s acting skills in ‘Shudder’ were again compared with Ye Sui.

“I now know why Pei Ning lost to Ye Sui at the audition for the role in ‘Besieged on All Sides.’”

“Ye Sui’s acting is very pure, without any impurities. However, Pei Ning’s mind is not only in the film but also beyond it. Her enthusiasm for acting can’t support a complicated role.”

“Ye Sui might be Huarui’s lady boss, but her acting skills are enough to be Huarui’s top gun. There’s no shady matter at all.”

“Despite being one of Ye Sui’s haters, I’m going to be fair for once. It’s a pity for the entertainment industry to lose an actress like Ye Sui. Ye Sui, you act well. Maybe I’ll turn from a hater to a fan in the future.”

On the first three days of Ning Ling’s release, there were fewer screenings and lower ticket sales. But it still exceeded the 200-million-mark thanks to its honest reviews.

Then, more and more screenings were arranged in the cinemas. Eight days later, the box office exceeded one billion. ‘Ning Ling’ did not rely on marketing. Instead, it was confident of its own excellent quality and competed with other movies at the box office.

After hitting one billion at the box office, ‘Shudder’ was losing its momentum, while ‘Ning Ling’ still brought in hundreds of millions every day.

At this time, the ratings of ‘Ning Ling’ on major movie websites began to change. Anyone who saw the movie would admit that it was the most touching movie in recent years.

The score gradually increased from 7 points. It first climbed to 7.5, then to 8, and was now threatening to exceed 9!

With more and more people scoring, it was incredible that the rating was still rising. If this continued, ‘Ning Ling’ would break the 9-star mark. In fact, it was just around the corner.

Netizens’ comments on Ye Sui gradually shifted from her marriage to the movie.

The media reports on Ye Sui were all related to the movie. Everyone finally recalled that Ye Sui was an actress, a really good one.

[Xi Zhao’s work, Ning Ling, completed a double counterattack at the box office within ten days!]
