"You …"
"I am a major general in the air force," Li Jin replied. "The area where the plane crashed wasn't too far from the military base."
This topic was a little heavy. Lin Qian suddenly didn't know how to respond. But, at least, she and Li Jin had something in common.
"I have high expectations for my actors."
"So?"
"If their acting isn't up to standard, I may leave halfway through."
"Ning Jie's films will never disappoint," Tangning's acting was so good that Lin Qian could speak with confidence no matter where she went.
Lin Qian originally thought Li Jin was going to refute, but he simply turned his head and looked straight ahead. Obviously, he could tell that Lin Qian admired Tangning.
"I was delayed on a mission."
So, he didn't stand her up on purpose.
"I can understand if it's just a delay. But, what if you never make it back?" Lin Qian asked as she turned to ask Li Jin.
Li Jin did not say a word.
This was the problem between the two. No matter how strong Lin Qian's heart was, she didn't want her partner to live a dangerous life.
…
Tonight was the premiere of 'Survivor'. Although it wasn't a public screening, plenty of celebrities turned up to show their support.
It was said that Mo Ting did not inform any of his artists before they attended the premiere. They wanted to see Tangning's acting again.
As a result, Beijing's mainstream media, film critics, experienced filmmakers and many other special groups attended. As for the director, who was sitting in the first row, he had reserved a seat for Tangning. He was confident that she would make an appearance.
But, the entire theater was packed. From the first minute of the film to the end, every time Tangning created a climax, people would subconsciously look towards the empty seat. Unfortunately, Tangning did not make an appearance …
The entire film lasted 136 minutes. During it, not a single person left the restroom and no one discussed the plot in private.
They simply sighed, especially after the film ended.
Tangning was a genius. No matter what she acted in, she was always able to get it right.
Even Li Jin, who had high expectations for his acting, did not leave halfway through. Instead, after watching the entire film with Lin Qian, he said, "I can't tell the difference between her and the survivor I saw at the time."
Li Jin had the most right to speak because he had participated in the rescue mission. Since he said this, it was obvious that 'Survivor' was a success.
After the premiere, various reviews began to appear on the Internet.
Of course, while they lamented the impermanence of life, they also felt it was a pity that such a talented actor would end his acting career in 'Survivor'.
Meanwhile, when Tangning was filming 'Survivor', the conditions were still so harsh.
"Is there anyone that can convince Tangning to return to the film industry..."
"Tangning, please save our polluted eyes."
"Tangning is too precious. With her acting skills, even if she were to kill someone, I would still forgive her."
"Tangning did not appear at the premiere. It's clear to see how determined she is to distance herself from being an actress."
Tangning did not appear at the premiere...
It was as if the movie had nothing to do with her.
…
"The film was so exciting. It's a pity Ning Jie didn't get to witness it in person." On the way home, Lin Qian sighed. "Although Ning Jie is still involved in the film industry, it's still very different from her acting. Without her, it feels like something's missing."
"Everyone has their own choices."
Although Li Jin wasn't good at comforting people, this was the truth.
"By the way, my parents already know of your existence."
"!" Lin Qian was surprised.
Li Jin knew that she still needed a long time to recover, so he comforted her, "They can still wait for now."
"But, I want to know why you are rejecting them."
"I'm not prepared. For a woman, meeting your parents has a different meaning," Lin Qian replied. "There's another reason. I don't think we're at that stage yet. I really don't know anything about you. For example, if you say you'll be back in three days, but I don't see you. Apart from waiting, I have no idea what to do."
Lin Qian's question was very realistic. She thought that Li Jin would give up. But, Li Jin simply said, "From now on, I will try my best to find someone to bring you news."
Lin Qian nodded her head in agreement.
She had always thought that Li Jin was boring and inflexible. He was exactly like how Xing Lan described him: a monk.
But, Li Jin had changed her opinion of him over and over again.
Li Jin was actually very hardworking in his life. Plus, from the way he watched his films, it was obvious that he wasn't the typical rough and burly man that others thought he was. He had high standards for everything.
Actually, the thing that made her feel the most at ease was that Li Jin was a determined person that didn't give up easily.
Otherwise, when faced with a huge gap, the first thing he would think of would be to give up, instead of slowly improving and getting closer to her.
Actually, getting along with this man wasn't tiring at all.
...
Soon, it was time for 'Survivor' to be released into the public. Using the excuse that it was Tangning's last film, the film successfully earned a shocking box office. On the first day of release, it broke $300 million. Although everyone expected the movie to be a hit, they didn't expect it to be this popular.
Tangning's acting was immediately praised by the netizens as a god.
But, even so, Tangning continued to disappear without showing her face. It was like she was using her silence to look down on the people that once looked down on her.
"Aiyo, Tangning will make a comeback sooner or later. Just wait and see. Her film is a hit. If she doesn't make a comeback now, how long are she going to wait?" a netizen commented.
"Although Tangning has moved behind the scenes and created Superstar Media, I still feel that her ambition isn't limited to this."
"I hope that when I wake up tomorrow, I can see Tangning announcing her comeback or attending an event."
Unfortunately, they wouldn't be able to see anything the next day.
Tangning was currently living in seclusion, so even the paparazzi didn't get a chance to take photos of her.
"Tsk, there aren't many good films this year. 'Survivor' is the only one that Tangning is guaranteed to win the Best Actress Award. When that time comes, will she still not make a comeback? I refuse to believe it. "
Tangning was aware of the public's reaction, but she was no longer the Tangning that she was.
Qiao Sen also took the opportunity to watch the film. After returning to the studio, he was even more determined to get Tangning to appear in his film.
But, Tangning was more stubborn than him. So, what could he do?
Plus, he wasn't strong enough on his own.
