Global Movie Emperor

The waves hit the rocks, and splashes of water splashed. On the wet beach, the little crabs crawled sideways at a slow speed. They hid in the sand before the waves came up again, with only two eyes exposed to look at the outside world.

A pair of bare feet left faint footprints on the beach. Although the jeans were in tatters, they were surprisingly relevant to the beautiful scenery of the seaside, with a touch of cheap poetry, if he was really on vacation.

He has been trapped on this uninhabited island for fifteen days. He doesn't know where he is or what the outside world knows. Maybe people outside already think he is dead, even his ex-wife and children should think so.

But he is still alive, and only he knows this, and he will continue to work hard for this goal. He wants to go back, because there are many things that still concern him.

After the tide goes out, there will be a lot of shellfish on the rocks on the seaside, a large black area with a lot of sand. Relying on the knowledge he has learned, he rummaged for food that he could eat. Fortunately, it was not difficult.

There were a lot of wild oysters here, and they didn't taste good. They had a rotten smell and were far less delicious than what he had eaten in the restaurant. But now, he had no choice.

I stoned today's dinner, went to the beach, dug out the oyster meat, squeezed out the dark green organs, tissues and excrement inside, rinsed it in the sea, shook off the water on top, and finally stuffed it into my mouth without hesitation. .

The rotten smell filled the mouth again, and it tasted like chewing a piece of smelly pig fat. I forced myself to swallow the oysters, and then I coughed and spit out a mouthful of oysters that stuck to my throat. The oyster mucus on his stomach made him retching again, causing him to burst into tears.

With a long sigh, he finally calmed down his vomiting reaction. He picked up a piece of oyster meat again, raised it to the sea, stared at the turbulent waves, and said cheers with a smile, as if he really regarded the sea as his friend, and again Or, create a friend to accompany him through this difficult day.

Eating oysters raw may lead to hepatitis A, dysentery, or other diseases. Perhaps he should roast them before eating them, but God did not give him this face and denied him the right to light a fire.

The flints and lighters were all snatched away by the waves. There was no fire starter except books in the supply box. He was reluctant to burn books because books were the only recreational tools he could use to survive this period of time. Moreover, the seaside was humid, and books always contained moisture. There was no way to get a fire, and there was no dry firewood in the dense woods behind them.

All he had were clothes, books, a few pens, and a plastic bag that he found after searching all over the beach. He had also read Crusoe and other literary works, but the characters in their works were far luckier than he was. It would be difficult for the protagonist of any other novel to survive this hellish beginning.

He could only rely on the distillation of plastic bags to obtain a small amount of pitiful fresh water. He had no food, no fire, and no shelter. He did not dare to move into the forest, because in this sea area, venomous snakes and venomous lizards usually live in the forest. Once attacked by a venomous animal, he would never survive more than a week.

Oysters did not make him appetite at all. After eating a few pieces of meat, he could feel that his stomach had reached the limit it could bear. He stood up and sprinkled some urine near the temporary shelter made of palm leaves as a warning. He warned small carnivores that might exist on the island not to come over. He also sorted out the SOS signs laid out on the beach. He picked up paper and pen and climbed onto a rock at the highest point on the beach.

He would look at the rocks for a long time every day, watching the ships that occasionally passed through this sea area, but were extremely far away from the island where he was. Such a long distance, unless someone wears a telescope and observes the surroundings 24 hours a day, otherwise It is absolutely impossible to discover his existence, which he knows very well after living at sea for more than ten years. His purpose of looking out is just to get closer to human civilization and make himself look alive. It's not like a wild beast.

Watching another freighter disappear on the sea level, he didn't even have the desire to call for help. He just picked up the stone and drew another vertical line on the reef as a mark. Then he picked up the pen and took advantage of the sky before it completely darkened. , there are days written in dense fonts on the paper. He doesn’t know how long these days will last, so he must be diligent and thrifty.

I simply made some notes, mentioned my daughter in the text, and talked about how much I missed her, then closed the book and carefully walked off the rock.

…

"OK, that's it for today, call it a day."

Next to him, Kesha shouted, and on the originally quiet island, other people's voices rang out. He walked out of the shed on the back slope, cleaned up the lines on the ground, and dismantled the cameras that had been set up. There was a lively atmosphere. , which made Lu Ze, who had just quit performing, feel a little uncomfortable.

Wang Zixuan came over with the clothes in her arms. Before she could hand them over to Lu Ze, she was stopped by Lu Ze, who made a traffic police stop gesture. He rubbed his belly, washed his hands in the beach sink not far away, squatted down, Picking up the vomit bag, his index and middle fingers went into his throat and gently moved it.

"Ugh... ugh..."

Then, he spit out half a bag of oysters that he had just eaten in his stomach. What it looked like when he ate it was what he spit out. It was very complete. When filming, it looked like he was chewing it, but in fact he couldn't chew it thoroughly at all.

The texture of this thing is indeed the same as pig fat. It is a chewy and soft lump. Lu Ze could only swallow the oyster the first moment he put it in his mouth, and then acted like he was chewing it. .

The oysters used in the photography were indeed wild oysters found on the shore, but they were disinfected in advance and eliminated parasites, and then carefully cleaned again before being put back in. They were unpalatable after being born, but they were not that bad. What kind of disease did Lu Ze get infected from what he ate?

Moreover, Lu Ze had been injected with various vaccines before filming. After filming all the scenes of eating raw meat, he would go to the hospital for gastric lavage and internal insecticide, which could minimize the risk to basically zero.

Wrapping the vomit bag in a black garbage bag and throwing it into the trash can, he put on his clothes, picked up mineral water, rinsed his mouth, and took an antibiotic.

Although there is no serious harm, it is raw after all, let alone fresh. In addition, Lu Ze has suffered from stomach problems due to years of filming, so eating it in his stomach will inevitably lead to two extra trips to the toilet every day.

"Lu, is it okay?"

At this time, Kesha and Lucas also ran over to greet Lu Ze. After all, this man was also their boss. Letting their boss and investors suffer this, the brothers sometimes didn't know how to face Lu Ze.

"It's okay. You guys should call it a day. I'll go back and take a rest."

Lying on the chair, he put in a few drops of eye drops. After a few minutes, he opened his bloodshot eyes, waved to the brothers, and took Wang Zixuan back to the manor in a sightseeing car.

The manor housekeeper arranged a Hawaiian-style guest bedroom for Lu Ze. After taking a bath, he went to bed, lowered the gauze curtain at the head of the bed, put on an eye mask and fell asleep.

…

"Hello?"

"It's time to eat, and you're the only one left."

Mickey called and looked at the time. It was around seven o'clock in the evening. He had just slept for less than two hours. Lu Ze still did not escape the fate of wearing a big pineapple. He got up, put on his clothes and walked to the oversized room in the room. On the balcony, with his elbows on the guardrail, he looked towards the coastline. On the sea, lights flashed around the ship, lighting up part of the sea. Even Lu Ze could see a group of people having fun on the nearby yacht.

He took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and held it in his mouth. The sound of the Dupont lighter when it bounced was clear and sweet. The flint slid and exploded into stars. He lowered his head to light the tobacco, took a deep breath, and then held it in his hand and never touched it again. However, I just lowered my head and watched the cigarette burning. The ashes were blown away by the breeze, and the burning area became slightly brighter from time to time, accelerating the burning of the tobacco.

Halfway through the burning, Lu Ze pressed him into the ashtray. He washed his face again, closed the door and went downstairs. In the room, the warm yellow light was on, the gentle wind blew the gauze curtains, and they danced gracefully. But at this moment , no one appreciates its graceful dance anymore.

Far away, Lu Ze heard the loud noise in the restaurant. He opened the door and was surprised to find that the actors who had run away because of his temper a few days ago were also there again to participate in the dinner.

They were watching a boxing match. They had no position. As long as the boxers made beautiful attacks, they could arouse cheers from a group of people. However, after seeing Lu Ze, their voices became softer and they all greeted Lu Ze. .

He casually pulled out the chair opposite Mickey and glanced at the boxing match. The fight was fierce, both sides saw blood, and they were really angry. The manor's maid brought his dinner to the table, which was boiled chicken breast and broccoli. These things almost made him anorexic. He took a few bites and left most of the plate untouched.

"I've finished eating and will go back first. You guys can eat slowly."

Seeing that the dishes on their plates were rich, it would be false to say they were not hungry, and they were drooling so much that Lu Ze had no choice but to say goodbye and leave, out of sight and out of mind.

"Wait, why don't you ask us why we came here?"

Mickey was surprised. Normally, Lu Ze would have asked why it was so lively today, but now, he was not interested in the reason at all. He was about to leave without even asking. It seemed that he was in good health. So depressed.

"Oh why?"

"You didn't watch the news?"

"without."

"Oh, it's really boring. Okay, don't hide it, just take it all out."

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people took out beer and champagne from under the table, and even the Lucas brothers fired two salutes at Lu Ze.

Mickey took a stack of paper crowns for birthdays and put them on himself first, then ran to Lu Ze and put one on him too.

Elena picked up the remote control and switched to a TV program, or a news page would be more appropriate. Lu Ze turned around and took a look.

"Will "The Past" be the biggest winner at the 83rd Venice International Film Festival? It was shortlisted for the main competition, nominated for four awards, and became the strongest class leader of the year!"

"Best Director: Mitch Taylor."

"Best Screenplay: Mitch Taylor."

"Best Movie: "The Last Life."

"Best Actor: Lu Ze."

Seeing this, Lu Ze finally showed a smile. They applied for the Venice Film Festival because the Venice Film Festival has always advocated innovation and serious artistry. Films like "The Past" are the most popular among the Venice Film Festival judges, such as Let’s talk about the hit “Joker 2019” in the past few years.

The only drawback is that the Best Actress was not shortlisted, and the Venice Film Festival did not set up awards for Best Cinematography, Best Art Direction, etc. Otherwise, "The Past" might have won more awards.

"boom!"

The champagne was opened, and the strong sparkling wine was poured on Lu Ze. There was a burst of coldness. Lu Ze shrank his neck from the cold. Instead, Mickey rushed up, put his arms around Lu Ze's shoulders, enjoyed the celebration of everyone at this moment, and raised his eyebrows to everyone. Pick up four fingers.

"Golden Lion! Silver Lion! Volpi Cup! I want them all! Venice! This year is ours!"
