Chapter 638 Shu, what do I need to do before you choose me?
Wang Shu did not answer, but pretended to be stunned.
When Yang Mi saw Wang Shu didn't respond immediately, loss and embarrassment flashed across her pretty face.
Soon, he gritted his teeth and said: "Director Wang, I like you!"
"I have liked you a long time ago, but I never said it out loud."
When Wang Shu heard this, he thought that a long time ago, he was referring to the time when he was still at the Beijing Film Academy?
While Yang Mi was at the Beijing Film Academy, she not only had a boyfriend, but also a dog licker.
Could it be that while having a boyfriend, you fell in love with someone else?
Although this kind of thing is very common and very real.
But.
Wang Shu turned around, touched Yang Mi's head, and said softly: "You are a good girl, but now I want to put my career first."
Yang Mi opened her mouth when she heard the words, only to feel that her throat was stuck.
She is a smart person and knows that this is a polite refusal for her.
However, even though I know this, I still have extravagant hopes.
Even moths will fly into the flames, let alone people.
Wang Shu is not only young, handsome, rich, and charming, but he also has the ability to help actors go international.
Due to both emotion and reason, Yang Mi didn't want to give up.
She already had a good impression of Wang Shu and liked him.
Not to mention, Wang Shu can be of great help to her career.
Totally the most perfect object.
She didn't speak, but threw herself directly into Wang Shu's arms, murmuring: "I like you! I really like you!"
Wang Shu touched Yang Mi's head and continued to whisper: "You are not only a good girl, but you are also very beautiful and have a good personality."
"It's just that I want to focus on my career at the moment and have no plans to be friends."
When Yang Mi heard this, she hugged Wang Shu's arms tightly.
She looked up at Wang Shu, her big eyes filled with mist, and choked with sobs: "I like you."
Wang Shu caressed Yang Mi's hair gently, showing tenderness, and said: "But I."
Before Wang Shu could finish speaking, Yang Mi suddenly stood up on her tiptoes and kissed him on the mouth.
As the saying goes, women chase men with spacers.
Although Wang Shu declined, Yang Mi still wanted to try.
Wang Shu did not respond, but pushed Yang Mi away.
Yang Mi's eyes were watery, she looked at him aggrievedly, and choked up: "You obviously want to."
While she was kissing Wang Shu, her hands were not gentle, making it clear that Wang Shu had a reaction.
Wang Shu did not answer the question, but said again: "I said, I want to focus on my career now."
Yang Mi did not speak, but moved forward to kiss him again.
Wang Shu pushed Yang Mi away again and said impatiently: "I said it all."
"I don't care!" Yang Mi yelled, interrupting Wang Shu's words, and then moved forward to kiss Wang Shu.
This time, Wang Shu finally relented and did not push him away.
More than an hour later, Yang Mi left Wang Shu's villa and drove home.
However, during the drive, tears welled up in my eyes.
Wang Shu focuses on his career, and the two have not confirmed their relationship.
Despite this reason, Yang Mi could feel that Wang Shu did not love her.
If you love someone, then even if you focus on your career, you will agree to be friends.
Not like this.
It’s not that I don’t love you, or that I don’t love you enough!
Thursday, February 18, 2010.
Wang Shu is in Los Angeles.
"Shu, "jaroflove" has been recorded and will be released tomorrow." Swift called Wang Shu in New York.
"Is it so fast?" Although Sister Shitou had told him before that Swift was rushing to record the song, it was still a bit surprising that it was recorded so quickly.
"Haha, it's been a few days and it's not fast at all." Swift said with a smile.
"Haha, then I wish you good results." Wang Shu said with a smile.
"This song is very good, I have confidence in it." Swift answered, and then invited, "The song will be released tomorrow, and there will be a party the day after tomorrow. Do you want to come over?"
"I'm afraid not, I have work to do." Wang Shu said.
"Are you casting for the movie?" Swift asked.
"No, I'm going to attend the British Academy Film Awards ceremony on the 21st." Wang Shu explained.
"Pacific Rim" and "Life of Pi" were two films. "Pacific Rim" was not nominated, while "Life of Pi" was nominated.
"Oh, yes, it's film awards season now." Swift was stunned after hearing this.
After Christmas, Hollywood enters awards season.
The more famous ones are the Oscars, Golden Globe Awards, and British Academy Film Awards. In addition, there are various association awards.
Some of "Pacific Rim" were nominated and some were not.
"Life of Pi" was not only nominated for all major award ceremonies, but also won many awards.
Although the Oscars and British Academy Film Awards have not yet begun, there are only three films with the highest expectations for winning awards.
One is "The Hurt Locker" by Cameron's ex-wife, the second is "Avatar" by Cameron, and the third is "Life of Pi" by Wang Shu.
Among them, "The Hurt Locker" is the most competitive.
Although this movie may not be mediocre, its content is to the liking of the old guys at the American Film Institute.
In the original timeline, it was this film that swept all the major awards at the British Academy Film Awards and the Academy Awards, becoming the biggest winner in one fell swoop.
He vented his anger at losing to "Avatar" at the Golden Globe Awards.
Wang Shu smiled and said: "Next time, let's get together next time when we have time."
"Yeah, yeah." Swift answered with a smile, "I'll go to Los Angeles to meet you when I have time."
"Any time." Wang Shu said with a smile.
"Anytime? What if you're not here?" Swift teased.
Wang Shu smiled and answered: "When I say anytime, I mean when I am in Los Angeles and have time."
Swift snorted: "I thought I could find you at any time."
She bit the word anytime.
"Haha." Wang Shu laughed and said, "You can do it anytime you want, but I might not be here."
After saying that, he then added, "No more chatting, I still have work to do."
"Okay, you're busy." Swift responded.
After hanging up the phone with Swift, Wang Shu tidied up the apartment.
After a while, the doorbell rang, and it was Anne Hathaway who came to visit.
"Tree," Anne Hathaway called softly.
She was holding a gift in her hand, a bottle of wine.
"Annie." Wang Shu responded with a smile and led the other party through the door.
Anne Hathaway put the wine she brought on the coffee table, then looked around the apartment a few times, and said with a smile, "Shu, the apartment is not bad."
"Haha." Wang Shu laughed and asked, "Water or coffee?" "Coffee." Anne Hathaway smiled.
Wang Shu turned around and made Anne Hathaway a cup of coffee, and then brought some blueberry pie and apple pie.
Anne Hathaway was not polite, picked up the blueberry pie and tasted it.
"Hmm~ The blueberry pie is good, it's delicious."
Wang Shu smiled, picked up the apple pie on the side and ate it.
Anne Hathaway's eyes fell on Wang Shu, and she asked with a smile: "Shu, will you go to the British Academy Film Awards ceremony?"
Of course she knew that "Life of Pi" had been nominated, but in this awards season, Wang Shu did not attend the awards ceremony where there were many awards.
"Go." Wang Shu responded.
Anne Hathaway nodded, then smiled and said: "Are you confident about winning the best picture?"
She didn't ask about the best director, but she was assuming that the best director award would most likely go to Wang Shu.

Wang Shu smiled and answered: "Of course I have confidence, but there are so many excellent works and the competition is too great. Whether you can win the prize in the end depends on the organizing committee."
The two chatted for a while, and the conversation turned to wine.
Wang Shu opened the wine brought by Anne Hathaway and each poured some.
Anne Hathaway took a few sips and finally said her purpose: "Shu, I passed Paramount's primary selection, and the next step is the final selection."
"It's just that I heard that there are several actors who have passed the preliminary selection. I hope you can choose me."
She knew that although Wang Shu did not have the right to directly determine the actors, his opinions were very important.
For example, competing with several actors at the same time, if Wang Shu chooses her, then she has a high probability of getting the role.
When Wang Shu heard this, he immediately looked embarrassed and said: "Annie."
He met Anne Hathaway's eyes and then said: "To be honest, you are not my ideal choice for the heroine."
In fact, he wanted to create it based on the original cast of Nolan's version of "Interstellar," with Anne Hathaway as the heroine.
However, there is no need to reveal your inner thoughts in advance.
"Ah?" Anne Hathaway was a little panicked when she heard this, and asked in surprise, "Who is the candidate in your mind?"
"Natalie." Wang Shu didn't hide anything and said the name directly.
Anne Hathaway opened her mouth when she heard the name.
Natalie Portman is one of her competitors.
Thousands of words finally turned into a bitter smile.
She knew very well that she had no advantage over Natalie Portman.
So.
She sighed with a slightly bitter expression, "It turns out to be Natalie."
After saying that, he asked curiously, "Have you recommended her to Paramount?"
"No." Wang Shu responded.
"No?" Anne Hathaway wondered.
Since Wang Shu wanted Natalie Portman, why didn't he recommend it to Paramount?
Wang Shu explained with a smile: "I did recommend male and female leads to Paramount before, but I recommended a Chinese actor for the heroine."
Anne Hathaway was stunned after hearing this. As far as she knew, no Chinese actor had passed the preliminary audition, so she asked: "Your friend in China found you, why don't you refuse?"
"That's right." Wang Shu responded ambiguously.
At the same time, hope was rekindled in Anne Hathaway's heart.
Since Wang Shu did not recommend Natalie Portman to Paramount, she may not have an advantage.
Anne Hathaway took a sip of red wine, looked at Wang Shu with burning eyes, and recommended herself: "Shu, actually you can consider me."
"Uh" Wang Shu hesitated, looking like he wanted to refuse but couldn't.
Seeing this, Anne Hathaway stood up and walked over to Wang Shu and sat on his lap.
He put his arm around Wang Shu's shoulders and said softly: "Shu, what do I need to do before you choose me?"
Anne Hathaway has always wanted to get rid of the screen image of the sweetheart princess. The movies she has taken in the past few years have indeed helped her change her screen image and expand her acting career, but there is a lack of a high-quality blockbuster starring her that can make a final impact.
If she were to make some small productions, a popular actress like Anne Hathaway would not be like this.
But Wang Shu is not only an Oscar-winning director, but this "Interstellar" is also a legacy project of Spielberg.
In addition, Paramount is investing in production.
Everyone knows that this movie must be a high-quality blockbuster.
It is precisely because of this that Natalie Portman and others came to audition for roles.
"Annie." Wang Shu opened his mouth, looking like he was hesitant to speak.
Anne Hathaway could tell that the hesitation to speak was not because he wanted to say what he wanted her to do, but because he wanted to refuse but couldn't speak.
In order to prevent Wang Shu from continuing to speak, Anne Hathaway immediately reached out to cover Wang Shu's mouth and whispered: "Tree"
……
More than two hours later, Anne Hathaway left Wang Shu's apartment.
The next day, Wang Shu went to Paramount and hosted the audition with Paramount people.
For the male lead, he chose Matthew McConaughey, who had been recommended to Paramount before, and for the female lead, he chose Anne Hathaway.
Linda Obst was a little surprised that Wang Shu would choose Anne Hathaway, and couldn't help but ask: "Shu, can you tell me why you chose Anne Hathaway?"
Wang Shu saw everyone looking over and said without blushing: "First of all, Anne Hathaway is a popular actress, and secondly, she has changed some screens through movies such as "Brokeback Mountain" and "Batman" image.”
"With her as the heroine, not only can there be topics of conversation, but there can also be a sense of contrast and expectation."
"In addition, her image also fits the heroine in the script very well."
"Therefore, I recommend her to play the role of the heroine of "Interstellar"."
Linda Obst nodded and continued discussing with the others.
As a director and the creator of the script, Wang Shu's opinions are still very important.
He even said that among all the people present, his opinion was the most important.
As long as the actors recommended by Wang Shu are reasonable, the decision can basically be made.
After a day of auditions and discussions, the role has been initially determined.
It's just that "Interstellar" is a film with huge investment after all, and it requires caution in many aspects.
So it’s just a preliminary decision, and we’ll have to think about it again later.
At the same time, Swift's single "jaroflove" was released.
At first, many people didn't notice.
As the popularity grew, people gradually noticed that the songwriter of "jaroflove" was Wang Shu.
Nowadays, anyone who pays attention to Swift will definitely know who Wang Shu is.
The scene of Wang Shu standing up for Swift at the MTV Music Awards is still vivid in my mind. Anyone who pays attention to Swift has seen this scene and knows that Wang Shu is the Oscar director.
However, it is precisely because Wang Shu is an Oscar-winning director that it is particularly surprising.
Although he is a film director, why do he still compose lyrics and music?
It’s really incredible and unexpected!
At the same time, there are also gossip parties.
Not only did Wang Shu support Swift at the music awards ceremony, but now he also writes songs for Swift
Could it be?
Could it be?
