Chapter 192: Cyberbullying Target: Sun Sun Haiying

The scene that Zhang Xin and Fan Fan Fan Binbing were discussing was precisely the most controversial scene in the previous life's version of The Message.

Many people said that at the time, Li Fan Fan Binbing appeared completely naked. Later, three minutes were cut, leaving only about a minute in the final film.

In that scene, Huang Huang Xiaoming acted like a pervert, declaring that every human organ is a code, and that as long as you, Li Li Ningyu, could endure this, your innocence would be proven.

Afterward, he stripped Li Fan Fan Binbing down to her undergarments and used a ruler to measure and gesture around her eyes and nose.

Finally, there were some close-up shots revealing some of Li Fan Fan Binbing's bare skin, indicating that she was completely naked and suffering humiliation.

It was truly inexplicable.

In this one scene, the three parts of temperament that Mr. Huang originally displayed were reduced to nothing but sleaze; just like all his other performances, one could find no other way to describe it than "greasy."

Because the entire logic made absolutely no sense.

What does it mean for organs to be codes?

It was just finding an excuse to mess with a woman, wasn't it!

Yet in the script written by Ning Hao and Mai Jia this time, such a plot was naturally absent. Instead, they adopted Ning Hao's realist approach.

It was more realistic, and also more cruel.

It was simply interrogation by torture, brutal beatings, and even humiliation without a shred of eroticism.

A Japanese Major as cruel and ruthless as Takeda Nobunaga,

would not have so much tenderness, nor so much unspoken desire; he was no riddle-maker, he would only use every means to get the answer he wanted.

Just like at this moment,

in the dark corridor, Fan Fan Fan Binbing was led by Zhang Xin toward the interrogation room.

Under the dim light, the faces of the two women appeared and disappeared; one was forced to be calm, the other was expressionless.

Ning Hao and Gao Qunshu sat on the left and right sides of Wong Kar-wai, secretly observing his expression.

The great director Wong arrived on the third day after Chen Nuo reached Hengdian. He rested for a day yesterday and officially came to the set today.

Originally, Mr. Wong was quite humble, saying he would just watch from the sidelines.

But was that possible?

Even if Ning Hao and Gao Qunshu really thought so, they would never dare to do it. Thus, it became the current arrangement.

Looking at the woman in the lens, Mr. Wong frowned slightly and asked, "This Zhang... what's her name? Is this her first time acting in a movie, right?"

Ning Hao coughed and said, "Yes, she is an artist from Chen Nuo's company."

It was clear that Wong Kar-wai wanted to say something, but he likely thought of Dong Dong Jie from his own company and didn't have the face to criticize others, so he nodded slightly and said, "Fine."

Ning Hao said cautiously, "Director Wong, do you think we need another take?"

Wong Kar-wai said, "You are the directors, you don't need to ask me."

Ning Hao then picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "OK, cut!"

Wong Kar-wai's mouth twitched, and he said nothing.

Zhang Xin's first time on screen ended just like that. She felt a slight sense of relief in her heart, and at the same time, a bit of pride: it seemed that making movies wasn't as difficult as she had imagined.

The transition shot ended just like that, and the next step was the indoor scene, the interrogation room.

Zhang Xin expressionlessly sent Fan Fan Fan Binbing to the door and opened it for her.

The light inside the room was stark white, as if it were another world.

A flash of imperceptible panic crossed Fan Fan Fan Binbing's eyes, and she walked in slowly.

"Cut. Let's do another take," said Ning Hao.

Mr. Wong looked left and right, and seeing that Ning and Gao were still as calm as ever, he really couldn't help it and said, "Hao-zai, that shot just now, we're just going to pass it like that?"

Ning Hao was stunned and said, "Director Wong, do you think it's not good? I think Fan Fan Binbing's performance was actually quite good."

It was clear that Mr. Wong was already suppressing his temper; after all, this wasn't his set, so he forced a smile and said, "Let's do a few more takes and see."

Everyone knew that the "few takes" in Wong Kar-wai's mouth was an indefinite number.

Just for this one shot.

Zhang Xin sent Fan Fan Fan Binbing to the door, and Fan Fan Fan Binbing had a two-second internal monologue.

Wong Kar-wai made Ning Hao call "cut" thirty-three times.

By this time, Zhang Xin was already pale. Two hours ago, she thought making movies was very simple; now she realized that it was she who had thought too simply.

The key was that Mr. Wong maintained his usual style, saying nothing at all.

Ning Hao and Gao Qunshu seemed to understand something, and both remained silent.

Thus, the torture seemed to be left to only one person.

Fan Fan Fan Binbing.

However, after thirty-three takes, this future lady of a wealthy family remained calm and composed; let alone crying, she was practically brimming with enthusiasm, making the staff on set feel that even if they did 330 more takes, she would still flock to it.

Fan Fan Fan Binbing really did think so.

She knew Wong Kar-wai was sitting by the monitor; although Ning Hao was the one calling "cut" from beginning to end, who was really directing this scene? Did that even need to be said?

The Message had been filming for over a month, Jiang Wen had already wrapped up and left, who didn't know Director Ning Hao's style?

In a word: save film.

33 takes could not possibly have been called by him.

How could Fan Fan Fan Binbing not be excited by this?

How many actors in China have acted in a Wong Kar-wai film? And which one of them wasn't a superstar among superstars?

With her status, if it weren't for the favor of that "Master," which made Wong Kar-wai come to Hengdian for the first time in history, she would probably have to wait until her next life to film a scene of his.

With Fan Fan Fan Binbing's ambition and drive, how could she not cherish this opportunity?

Wong Kar-wai was busy with his professional work of burning film, while Chen Nuo was burning fat.

Who told Jeon Do-yeon to only come for this one day? She finished filming during the day and had to return to South Korea on the night flight because she had to attend a charity gala organized by the Blue House tomorrow night.

Therefore, the makeup Chen Nuo had just applied was almost ruined, but fortunately, he increased his strength, forcing Jeon Do-yeon to cover her mouth so she couldn't kiss him.

In the bathroom of the No. 3 dressing room, the lights were not on.

But the light filtering in through the glass window shone on Jeon Do-yeon's exposed snow-white thighs; the long, slender leg lines were smooth, and her delicate toes were painted with bright red nail polish.

To be honest, sometimes Chen Nuo was really a bit afraid of playing too wildly.

But this woman just liked to play like this, what could he do?

At one moment, her legs straightened, her arches and calves forming a straight line, making Chen Nuo's body tighten as well.

Then, for a long while, there wasn't a single word in the dark room.

After a long while, Jeon Do-yeon said in a hoarse voice, in English: "Why hasn't anyone come to call us yet? Haven't they finished filming?"

Chen Nuo had been prepared when he heard that Wong Kar-wai would be on set today.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been fooling around at this time.

He had long known that with the directing method Ning Hao and the others were using, Wong Kar-wai would absolutely not be able to stand it.

And he had long wanted to do this once. To let Ning Hao know that although saving film is a good habit, one cannot lose the big picture for the sake of the small.

It was fine to film Jiang Wen's scenes that way earlier. If they continued to pass scenes after one or two takes later on, the film they produced might be unwatchable.

It was just right to let Wong Kar-wai polish the actors while also helping him train the only director currently under his company.

So, hearing Jeon Do-yeon's words, he naturally replied: "I think they will be filming for a long time. How about it? Do you still have the strength?"

Jeon Do-yeon giggled and said, "Come on, harder."

Well, this Korean woman's tastes were getting heavier and heavier.

The door to the No. 3 dressing room was finally knocked on. A woman said something in Korean.

Jeon Do-yeon said, "They're done."

It was 6:30 PM now. Yes, Fan Fan Fan Binbing's introductory scene had been filmed for a full five hours.

And Jeon Do-yeon's flight was at 11:30 PM, which meant they only had about two hours to film the interrogation room torture scene.

Zhang Xin had known about this situation beforehand, so when she saw Jeon Do-yeon and Chen Nuo walking into the venue, chatting and laughing in English with natural expressions, ready to start filming the first shot,

Zhang Xin thought to herself that this Korean woman would probably have to reschedule her flight.

Director Wong Kar-wai was truly too perverted.

Sister Fan Fan Binbing had been tortured to such a state; if it were her, she would have gone crazy long ago.

"Action."

The script had been sent to South Korea long ago for Jeon Do-yeon to read, and the filming site had been completely organized during the ten-plus minutes Chen Nuo and Jeon Do-yeon had been delayed for some reason.

So Ning Hao soon ordered the start.

The lighting in the interrogation room was originally stark white because Ning Hao wanted to use it to express the ruthlessness and coldness of the Japanese.

But just now, under Wong Kar-wai's suggestion, it was changed to an orange-red color.

That is to say, the moment Fan Fan Fan Binbing stepped through the door, the light inside was white, but after she truly entered, the whole room turned into a beautiful red.

This change was actually a bit strange.

But seeing Chen Nuo and Jeon Do-yeon in the lens at this moment, Ning Hao suddenly understood Wong Kar-wai's intention.

A beast in a sea of blood.

For this scene, Jeon Do-yeon specifically learned a few sentences of Japanese.

Now she said them.

"Takeda-kun, do you need me to question her?"

"Go ahead."

"To what extent should I go?"

"Make her submit."

"Hi."

The entire conversation was conducted in Japanese.

Zhang Zhang Xinyu had not read the script. She was merely watching this scene from afar.

She saw two evil ghosts in a sea of blood, wearing human skins that were either handsome or beautiful, whispering to each other.

They were not human but ghosts, because they were too easy to identify.

Because the female ghost's eyes revealed resentment and a desire to destroy everything.

As for the man, he hid it a bit deeper. However, the look in his eyes when he gazed at his prey revealed a bloodthirsty craving, a cruel joy.

The interrogation began just like that.

Zhang Zhang Xinyu did not see the end, because the subsequent shots of this scene involved nudity and required the set to be cleared.

She retreated from the scene along with the staff.

An hour later, she saw that gentle and delicate Korean woman walk out while conversing with Chen Nuo; both of them had already changed from their Japanese military uniforms into their original casual clothes.

Walking to Zhang Zhang Xinyu's side, the Korean woman suddenly bowed slightly to her, said something in English, and added a "bye-bye."

"Bye-bye." Zhang Zhang Xinyu returned the gesture, feeling quite at a loss.

Later, Zhang Zhang Xinyu asked someone else and only then learned that the Korean film queen had said: You acted very well.

Even if 300 men lined up to confess their love to her, Zhang Zhang Xinyu certainly would not have shown the embarrassment and awkwardness she felt now.

Ever since Chen Nuo returned, many people would surround Qiu Manor every day.

Some were fans who had heard the news and wanted to see the real-life Joker, while more were paparazzi and reporters who wanted to snap photos of the real-life Joker. Both domestic and foreign.

But in order to focus on filming, Chen Nuo had never accepted interviews.

However, today, the domestic and foreign reporters who had been waiting in boredom and thought they would return empty-handed again suddenly discovered that the gates of Qiu Manor had opened.

The news that Jeon Do-yeon was coming to make a guest appearance today had long since spread like wildfire, so the reporters were not surprised.

What was surprising was that Chen Nuo would actually personally send Jeon Do-yeon out of the gate to her car.

It was a bit pretentious; the parking lot was clearly inside the gate.

The white-skinned, blue-eyed ones and the yellow-skinned, black-eyed ones looked at each other suspiciously, and in the next second, they grabbed their various cameras and recording equipment and rushed forward.

Regardless of what was going on, there would definitely be news today.

Chen Nuo ignored the reporters' long lenses and short cannons, first sending Jeon Do-yeon into the Alphard that the company had just bought.

After watching her leave, and to the surprise of the reporters, this reclusive master did not immediately turn back inside.

Instead, he did something unprecedented and answered questions!

First, he fluently answered a few questions from foreign friends in English.

For example, what did he think about *The Dark Knight* breaking so many records?

Or, for example, with the rumors between the Joker and the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor growing, as the person involved, what were his feelings?

Or, for example, Emma Stone recently said in an interview that what she said when she won the award at Cannes still held true today; what did he think about that?

There was also a French reporter who asked, in his heart, which one—Cannes or Berlin—had played a more important role in his acting career?

The reason was that the war of words between the French *Libération* and the German *Die Welt* was intensifying, both fighting over who had discovered the supreme talent of the Joker actor, Luo Chen, first.

Chen Nuo actually really wanted to say, "Who the hell are you at Cannes?", but facing a Reuters French reporter, he certainly couldn't be that direct.

He had no choice but to say tactfully: "These are different accolades received at two different stages. I can only say that I am very grateful to both the judges of the Berlin Film Festival and the fans and audience of the Cannes Film Festival."

The last foreign reporter's question came from a madman from the American *Wall Street Journal*; he actually asked if Chen Nuo not having an English name yet was due to some kind of nationalist sentiment.

Chen Nuo smiled and countered with a question: "Then do you have a Chinese name?"

The reporter immediately opened his mouth wide, speechless.

Qi Yuntian had been accompanying him on the side and couldn't help but smile upon hearing this.

This was the image of Chen Nuo that had always been in his mind.

If you respect me an inch, I will respect you a foot.

If you try to push your luck, then I will always have a way to make you unable to step down.

However, he was also quite puzzled, not knowing why Chen Nuo had deliberately come to accept an interview today.

But the next moment, he understood.

A reporter from NetEase Entertainment suddenly asked: "Chen Nuo, may I ask what your opinion is on the comments Teacher Sun Sun Haiying posted online yesterday regarding your manager?"

Chen Nuo revealed an expression of astonishment.

Qi Yuntian knew that the whole world was praising this master's acting skills, but seeing Chen Nuo use his acting skills at this very moment, Qi Yuntian was not only amused but suddenly felt a bit of a sting in his nose.

He, of course, knew what Chen Nuo wanted to do!

Chen Nuo seemed to think for a long time, but finally gave up: "Sorry, I don't know any 'Sun Haiying' (Sea Eagle); I only know flies. My girlfriend brought back a very advanced fly swatter from Hong Kong; it's electric, and it makes a buzzing sound when you press the button. No matter what kind of eagle it is, one swat and it's definitely dead. Interested friends can contact my manager. There, that's him, he is now the general manager of my company and also a good brother who has been through thick and thin with me."

As Chen Nuo spoke, he smiled again, revealing two rows of neat, white teeth.

"He is a kind person, always soft-hearted."

"But I am different."

"So, no matter if you are a Sea Eagle or a fly, a Red Eagle or a Black Eagle, don't provoke me, otherwise I will let you know what true crime is!"
