In reality, even Tangning herself had not seen the complete version of 'Stupid'. During the test screening, she was still filming 'W.H.'. Now that the pre-screening had come out, her heart was in sync with the reactions of the public.
From the looks of it, 'Stupid' seemed to be struggling to survive.
"According to your shooting schedule, you should be able to take on three movies a year. So, in the second half of the year, I will take on another film for you. After that, you can go home and prepare for pregnancy in peace. "
That night, the couple sat in the study room sifting through scripts. Mo Ting scanned through all the resources and placed them to one side.
"I will listen to your arrangements..." Tangning replied as she leaned against Mo Ting's back. "You know, I like the life you have planned."
Hearing Tangning's sigh, Mo Ting's lips secretly curved upwards as his heart felt extremely satisfied.
"I want you to bring home this year's Fei Tian Best Newcomer Award."
"You trust me that much?" Tangning put down a script as she turned around and rubbed her head against Mo Ting's back, "Actually, I really want to know how 'Stupid' is doing."
"Mrs. Mo, are you doubting your husband's ability?" Mo Ting turned his head and raised an eyebrow.
"Of course not. I'm just used to being anxious because this isn't my area of expertise."
"Relax." Mo Ting pulled her into his embrace and sat her on his lap, "You haven't seen it yet, have you? Let's go watch it together during the second pre-screening. "
"Beautiful?"
"Even the most optimistic film critic in the industry has stepped out to defend you. What do you think?" Mo Ting raised an eyebrow. "You've never been so unconfident before."
"This is something I can't control …"
"I will teach you how to control it." Mo Ting gestured for Tangning to sit beside him and said, "The film industry isn't actually that difficult. Actually, everything in the entertainment industry is quite similar. You were simply shocked by how aggressive the other party was."
"Don't look at others, just look at yourself."
"From the screenwriter, to the actors, to the director, and behind the scenes, we have the confidence to do three pre-screenings. This is our confidence in the movie. Hai Rui's operations have always been the best in the industry. We don't need to compare ourselves to our competitors, we need to understand our strengths and make use of the environment. "
After hearing this, Tangning suddenly let out a gentle laugh, "Actually, in the end, it's because you have enough confidence in your film."
"Of course, my judgment has always been very accurate."
As Mo Ting said these words, his eyes were filled with confidence. His entire being exuded the domineering aura of an emperor.
This side of Mo Ting captivated Tangning the most.
Her man's abilities had never been doubted. So, when it came to 'Stupid', she slowly relaxed and felt her body filled with strength.
…
"Oh my god! An error in judgment! Tangning's acting is surprisingly good. "
"Let's not talk about anything else. Just take 'Stupid' for example. I only saw the actresses in the film and didn't see Tangning. Unexpectedly, I felt it was quite good."
"Tangning's acting might not be the best, but she definitely beats her neighbor. Plus, she turned into a model!"
"I can tell that Tangning put in a lot of effort in her acting. There are no traces of her true self at all. It's quite amazing."
"If Tangning's character was played by an unknown actress, people would want to slap her in the face. But, the actress that Tangning played was not hateful at all."
"It's obvious to see how evil the person that slandered Tangning's acting was. At least, I didn't feel anything wrong with her acting! This time, I will stand on the side of 'Stupid'. "
Online, in an instant, people that had watched 'Stupid' began to stand up for Tangning and the film. Compared to the exaggerated 'Devil Shooter', 'Stupid' was much more meticulous.
Even though...
In terms of popularity, the two films were still a far cry from each other. But, in terms of reputation, 'Stupid' was steadily improving...
Because, apart from the film itself being exciting and tight, Tangning was indeed the one that surprised people the most. Actually, this was all thanks to the slandering of 'Devil Shooter'.
If it wasn't for the fact that film fans didn't have high expectations for Tangning, they wouldn't have been so surprised.
Due to their curiosity towards Tangning's acting, a lot of people expressed their eagerness to watch the second pre-screening. But, the number of pre-screenings did not increase because of the audience's demand. This was one of Mo Ting's strategies; he didn't want to satisfy everyone too quickly. Everything would be left for the public release.
Two days later, the second pre-screening began. This time, Mo Ting invited a few 'special' people, including business partners and big name directors. Mo Ting's motive for this pre-screening was clear: he wanted to let those that doubted Tangning's acting know that there was nothing wrong with her acting. He wanted them to feel assured and invite her.
Mo Ting was not affected by the producers of 'Devil Shooter'. His decisions were as clean and decisive as ever.
However, this time, Tangning and Mo Ting were also in a special theater. This was the first time Tangning had seen the finished product.
It was a strange feeling, especially when she saw her name appear on screen. This was a sense of pride that she couldn't receive as a model.
Sitting beside Tangning was Mo Ting.
He was completely focused on watching the film. Even during Tangning's kissing scene and bed scene, he surprisingly did not have much of a reaction.
This was because he did not see the Tangning in front of him as the actress in the film.
It was a strange feeling...
The entire 2 hour film was tight with a few twists and turns. The clumsy disciple that made people sigh, turned out to be the son of an athlete and a swimming genius...
Soon, time passed. It wasn't until the lights in the theater came back on that everyone realized the film had come to an end.
After the son stood on stage and shouted 'my father has abandoned me' multiple times, the frustration in the hearts of the audience was finally released. Especially when he mentioned the man's name; in front of the entire world...
Everything came to an abrupt end...
This was not a mainstream film, but it was surprisingly outstanding!
It wasn't stunning enough; it wasn't as popular as it should be, but it was unforgettable.
Most importantly, by the end of the film, no one had realized the tragic actress was actually played by Tangning. After exiting the film and looking at the cast list, they suddenly realized it was actually Tangning.
Tangning!
How could a supermodel have such good acting skills!
This made those that didn't have high hopes for Tangning feel slapped in the face.
It seemed, no matter if she was a model or an actress, she could use reality to prove that there was nothing she couldn't do.
