"In a moment, I will post some comparison photos. Although I know that Tangning wants to create a sci-fi film of our own, I think it's best to be honest!"
Yet, this special effects artist actually accepted an interview with the media and dared to say that Tangning was faking it.
"I hope her fans don't attack me. I'm simply stating the truth!"
Afterwards, the reporters turned their cameras back to their faces and gave a summary, "As we all know, the pre-screening of 'The Ant Queen' will be taking place this afternoon. Based on the reports from the venue, most of the film festival staff have already arrived."
"But, before the film has even started playing, a scandal has already been revealed that the special effects weren't made in China. So, when the people in the audience find out about this, will their mentality change? Let's see what everyone's reaction will be after the pre-screening of 'The Ant Queen' … "
An explosive piece of news like this naturally spread at a shocking speed. So, in just a few minutes, news of Tangning 'lying' had already spread like wildfire.
Afterwards, Long Jie immediately relayed the news to Tangning. But, as she looked at the hall filled with people and Tangning stood at the back of the hall, she realized it was too late to do anything about it. Even if everyone was biased and biased, it would have to wait until the pre-screening was over before making any further decisions.
"Where did this trashy special effects artist come from? Is he spouting nonsense again? "
"Tangning … won't it affect the viewing experience?"
"Go out first and get a better understanding of the situation. The pre-screening has already started. Let them watch the film in peace."
Tangning pushed Long Jie out of the theatre.
From the moment she announced her comeback to this day, every single time, she had crawled through a quagmire. She had always been covered in mud.
So, this time, even if it wasn't too late to do anything about it, she still wanted to see how people would react after watching the film.
As expected, Fang Yu and Huo Jingjing were seated in the audience. As soon as he saw Tangning standing at the back, he also stood up and walked to the back to accompany her.
"I've already seen the news …"
"You believe it too?"
"Where did this special effects artist come from? Does he think he can represent authority? "Huo Jingjing laughed." Of course I believe in you. "
No matter what the result was, Tangning felt everything was worth it with Huo Jingjing's words!
What was there to be afraid of? She and her team had put in a lot of effort to come up with this. It wasn't something that could be deviated by a single authoritative person.
"You should also try to trust the media for once. Let's see which side they stand on this time. You can't always go against them …"
Tangning understood what Huo Jingjing was trying to say, so she nodded her head and gave Mo Ting a phone call. She told him not to do any PR. After all, the news had already spread. If they removed the trending topic at a time like this, it would raise suspicions.
"That's the way to be confident. Trust me!" After speaking, Huo Jingjing patted Tangning on the shoulder and gestured with her chin, "Go ahead, your seat is at the front!"
After speaking, Huo Jingjing returned to her seat and focused on the movie on the big screen.
Tangning let go of all her distracting thoughts and nervousness. While watching the film, she was reminded of every little detail of her time with Qiao Sen. At the same time, his excited and warm smile was constantly reminding her.
"Don't be afraid, don't retreat. You didn't do anything wrong. Be brave!"
There were 134 people in the audience at the pre-screening. Among them were authoritative figures in the film industry, sci-fi enthusiasts, fans, film critics and a few good friends in the industry.
While watching the film, almost no one fell asleep. In fact, no one even went to the bathroom.
Just like that, 2 hours passed by …
Although, due to An Zihao replacing Qiao Sen in post-production, it was obvious that there was a difference in the way the film was shot. But …
As the cast list appeared on the huge screen and the lights came back on, Tangning noticed most people were still sitting in their seats without getting up.
"Tangning!" someone called out from behind her.
"Hmm?" She quickly stood up …
"I trust you!"
"Huh?" Before Tangning could see who was speaking, a few more people stood up from their seats and said, "We trust you too."
"We trust you too."
"And us!"
Gradually, everyone in the theater stood up and expressed their stance.
"Back then, because of the media's nonsense, we lost a good actor and you announced your retirement from filming. Today, a year later, the same thing is happening. I'm afraid that if I stand on the wrong side again, I'll lose another good producer! "
A film critic approached Tangning and extended his hand towards her.
Tangning froze for a second before she also extended her hand.
"I don't know if you've convinced anyone else, but … you've convinced me!"
"Thank you," Tangning's eyes turned slightly red.
A moment later, the theater erupted into a thunderous applause.
"You've also convinced me!"
"Me too!"
At this moment, Tangning turned around and looked at everyone in the theater. She then bowed deeply, "Your affirmation means a lot to me."
"If Qiao Sen's spirit is watching from above, he would be comforted!"
"Because the film … is truly worthy of praise!"
"I don't know how others felt about it, but when I first saw the giant termites on the screen, I immediately thought, was this the rumor that the film had borrowed the help of Hollywood's special effects? As I continued to watch, I realized it wasn't … "
"Because I've worked in Hollywood in the past. I've participated in the production of a lot of blockbusters, like 'Feast of the Barren' and 'For example, Angela's Secret'. So, I'm sure no one has a better say than me. "
Everyone in the theater was shocked by the film critic's words.
"In the past, I've always been the one to pick on domestically produced films because I wanted them to improve. So, I'm sorry, even if there wasn't a scandal about you 'lying', I was still here to complain. But, after watching it, I suddenly felt like crying …"
"Because you've made me feel ashamed."
"We both want films to grow. But, I chose to criticize them, while you went ahead and did it."
"You … went from being a model to being an actress. You started from nothing. On the other hand, after spending so many years in Hollywood, I never thought about making my own film because I was afraid."
"You've made me feel ashamed."
Tangning shook her head, "You're exaggerating!"
