Main Text:

According to convention, the start of such a high-investment and high-attention movie requires a press conference.

And Forrest Gump is currently the only high-investment movie with news of starting filming. Other movies have basically been postponed indefinitely due to recent turmoil.

It also includes those movies that were originally prepared for release, as if everyone feels that releasing movies at this time will lose money.

Actually, it is normal to have such thoughts. The stock market has plummeted, and society is so turbulent, which has indeed created some atmosphere of depression, and people's consumption sentiment has also greatly decreased.

Releasing a movie at this time, the box office is definitely not as good as usual.

As for filming a movie, to be honest, it is really not an easy thing to find a movie team that can settle down and be completely unaffected by the outside world.

However, Miss Luo Quan is an exception here. When she films a movie, others only need to be like tools and operate according to her will. Filming like this will also be much less affected by the outside world.

At the press conference, in order to fit the recent atmosphere, Miss Luo Quan, who usually likes to smile, was also rarely serious.

In the past, American media liked to put close-ups of Miss Luo Quan's bright smile on reports and attach titles like "Silly Big Sister".

And the American public also quite likes this persona, so reports with close-ups of her smile can often gain a lot of traffic.

But this time, her happiness and smile disappeared, and I don't know if it has anything to do with the stock market crash.

"Miss Luo Quan, in the current environment, it is not easy to start filming a movie. I don't know what expectations you have for Forrest Gump? Do you hope to save the current United States through this movie that tells the American Dream?"

A reporter from the New York Times asked a quite constructive question right from the start, combining movie content and hot topics, and it was also very topical. It's just that the person being asked would be quite embarrassed to answer.

Miss Luo Quan fiddled with the microphone in front of her and said in a deep voice: "I am just filming a movie, and this is also a biographical movie. As for saving the current United States, that belongs to the category of science fiction."

As expected of the silly big sister and happy fruit recognized by the American media, Miss Luo Quan made everyone laugh as soon as she opened her mouth.

"I'm serious. As an outsider, I'm actually not qualified to criticize the current social status quo. Saying it is actually of no use."

"I only hope that the movie I filmed can help alleviate the current tense and pessimistic atmosphere. This is the responsibility I can promise."

"As for those promises that cannot be fulfilled or are not sure to be fulfilled, I will not make them."

Actually, she wanted to say that if you want to solve the current problems, you need your own government to do more human things.

But considering her position, it is better to say less of this kind of thing, so as not to cause trouble for herself.

After all, it's someone else's family business, so what does it count for her as an outsider to offer advice?

In the current situation, playing dumb and protecting oneself is the best choice.

The reporters also understood the reason why Miss Luo Quan said this kind of circular talk, and very tactfully changed the direction of the question:

"You chose your younger brother Gao Liang as the representative of the American Dream. Do you think he is competent for this responsibility?"

"Actually, judging from the public opinion on the internet, the public feels that you are more suitable for the word American Dream."

Miss Luo Quan showed a smile when she heard this question: "It's the American man's dream, right? I don't believe how many girls will dream of me when they are dreaming."

"This kind of relatively limited American Dream is definitely not what I want to film, and I guess it's not what everyone wants to see."

"As for Gao Liang, I can only say that I hope everyone looks forward to his performance next. He will definitely hand in a satisfactory answer sheet."

"Now it is said on the internet that you are appointing people by nepotism, and all resources are given to family members. All previous movies and songs were like this. Either they are relatives or they are given to your own studio. It is too exclusive and selfish. What do you think of such remarks?"

Another reporter asked a question with a quite high degree of discussion.

Keeping the fat water from flowing into outsiders' fields has always been the most true and accurate portrayal of Miss Luo Quan's works in cooperation with others.

But Miss Luo Quan felt that this was a matter of course: "The best resources, if not given to one's own relatives and friends, should priority be given to strangers? There is no such reason, and I am not selfless to that extent."

"Besides, among those relatives and friends who appeared in my works, did anyone hold the work back? Or did they ruin any work?"

"Obviously, there is no such thing, which is enough to show that my choice is no problem. And not only in the past, I am doing this now, and I will still do this in the future."

A very straightforward answer slapped the faces of many people who couldn't eat grapes and said they were sour.

At the next press conference, reporters asked Miss Luo Quan about future schedule arrangements, such as new albums, concerts, and the like.

She said everything she could say. As for the concert that she hadn't even thought about when to hold, she used a 'please look forward to it' to muddle through.

Just kidding, how long has it been since the last concert? And again, even the donkeys in the production team are not used like this.

After the interview, it didn't take long for Miss Luo Quan's classic quotes in this interview to hit the hot search.

And among so many answers, the most wonderful one is the sentence 'science fiction movie'.

"If you want to save the United States, you have to rely on science fiction movies."

Under the news, countless netizens were truly unable to laugh or cry in the true sense:

"This answer, which seems like a joke, is actually very consistent with the reality."

"In today's American society, indeed only the power in science fiction movies can save it."

"Miss Luo Quan is probably also very helpless. She is just an influential star, not an official. She doesn't have the final say in this kind of thing."

"It is suggested that those officials look at Miss Luo Quan's answer. At least her point of view is more reasonable than the words of these bureaucrats throwing the pot at each other."

"My grandmother's nonsense after getting Alzheimer's is more reasonable than what they said. These people are just borers and waste."

………………

The more they chatted, the more intense the netizens' words became. As a result, no one paid attention to Forrest Gump.

But that's good, so no one will arrange 'responsibility' for her.

Because she once had the record of 'saving' the Japanese stock market, many people still pinned their hopes on letting her save the US stock market this time, and even regarded her as a straw to save their lives.

But this is simply a very ridiculous and irresponsible behavior. If the movie comes out and there is no change, wouldn't she be innocently blamed?

Miss Luo Quan doesn't know whether the people who spread such remarks are kind-hearted or have ulterior motives. Anyway, for her, it is not good news.

She doesn't want to be inexplicably blamed for a black pot that doesn't belong to her because of other people's mistakes.

Even if this black pot is washed white by her, and she will gain unparalleled fame and fans, she is not willing.

It's not that she is afraid of being scolded or hated after failure. These have become commonplace for her, and there is no need to take them to heart.

What she is afraid of is that those people see such remarks and really place all their hopes on her.

And if it fails, these hopes will instantly turn into despair. At that time, I am afraid that any extreme things can be done.

Conversely, if everyone doesn't hold any hope, maybe it can produce some unexpected effects.

Anyway, the current situation where everyone's attention is not on Forrest Gump makes her quite satisfied.

With great power comes great responsibility.

This is a sentence Miss Luo Quan saw from a superhero movie. It makes sense, but she doesn't have such great power, and she can't bear such responsibility.

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

She wants to give the public hope, but if it fails, the disappointment caused is something most people cannot bear.

So, just like this.

Of course, Kalan, who doesn't care about the movie for the most part and is the initiator of the movie, finally contacted Miss Luo Quan.

Probably because he saw the news of the press conference, he specially took time out of his busy schedule to ask if there were any difficulties, and whether he needed help to solve them.

Kalan's tone sounded very tired, with a feeling of being overwhelmed.

Miss Luo Quan felt that his difficulties should be much more than what she was facing, so she smiled: "No need, everyone in the crew is in a stable mood now, and the movie will be filmed and released smoothly."

"That's fine, I have something to do here, hang up first."

In the past, after chatting about the movie, Kalan would find excuses to chat with Miss Luo Quan about other aspects.

Anything can be chatted about. As long as he is talking to Miss Luo Quan, he is very happy, but in most cases, he can only chat awkwardly.

And this time, Kalan ended the topic quite cleanly and neatly, saving her a lot of trouble.

To be honest, Miss Luo Quan really doesn't like chatting with these second-generation and third-generation officials. Dealing with Kalan is entirely for public business.

After dealing with the media and the movie initiator, Miss Luo Quan officially started the filming of Forrest Gump in Hollywood.

And today is destined to be written into the textbooks of American film history in the future, but now, no one knows what kind of movie this crew will bring.

On the second day of filming, it encountered Waterloo.

But it was not because of others, but the director herself. After guiding the filming for a morning, she announced that everyone would be free in the afternoon and there would be no filming tasks.

When saying this, the tone was quite impatient, and it seemed that she was in a very bad mood. The employees looked at each other, thinking that something bad had happened to make the director so angry.

Looking at the internet, there is no negative news about Miss Luo Quan.

Everyone was puzzled.

"What's wrong with sister?" Gao Liang returned to the hotel, looking at his sister's back, very puzzled.

"I probably know." Mia looked at the mobile phone calendar, looking like she was guessing.

"Because of what?"

"Oh, girls have those few days when they are in a bad mood. Didn't I lose my temper a while ago because of this?"

"But Miss Luo Quan is really gentle. Under such great pressure, and encountering this thing, she actually never lost her temper at anyone. All negative emotions are left to herself."

Mia sighed softly, and then looked at Gao Liang again: "Gao Liang, do you think I should also be like this, become more gentle?"

"Haha, you and my sister are not the same type, why force yourself to learn from her?" Gao Liang asked puzzled.

Mia's fingers wrapped around quickly: "But I think your sister is very... very good. Who doesn't like gentle girls?"

Gao Liang became gentle instead: "That's what I said, but I like the original you. You don't need to make any changes."

"So, can I lose my temper at will in the future?" Mia laughed, and the picture was revealed.

"Ah this..." Gao Liang directly had a sweating bean face, wanting to say that you are almost enough.

"If you can be gentle, you can still be gentle. If it really doesn't work, don't lose your temper like before."

"Haha, I'm joking with you. After that time, I also reflected on it. It was indeed my fault. You must not be angry with me." Mia said, lowering her head.

"I'm not that petty." Gao Liang held Mia's face and said affectionately.

At the same time, in Miss Luo Quan's room, Kalilian was nagging Miss Luo Quan like a mother.

"When you have your period, don't eat any hot pot or iced cola. You dare to have such a stimulating diet with this body? It's strange if your mood can be good!"

Kalilian bought a large pack of side-leak-proof sanitary napkins from the supermarket and threw them on Miss Luo Quan's bed.

This was what she asked the assistant to buy. Miss Luo Quan's previous ones were just used up.

"Forgot, I thought it had no effect." Miss Luo Quan had already finished taking a bath at this time, wrapped tightly.

In the cold spring season, fortunately, people are in Hollywood, and the climate is relatively pleasant.

However, the diet was too unrestrained, which still caused problems with her mentality.

To tell the truth, this period once a month is actually not as terrible as she imagined.

Pain can be endured, and mood can also be adjusted.

But if you are slightly careless and eat more stimulating food, it will still make her irritable.

In the current state, it is definitely impossible to film a movie, so she can only choose to rest.

"Stay well, it's best not to look at Twitter, so as not to see any news that hates you." Kalilian poured a cup of hot water and handed it to Miss Luo Quan's hand.
