Chapter 823 Is it wrong to want to live? The collision between law and death of Lu Shouyi has never gone away and has always been in Cheng Yong’s heart.
But as fate would have it, during one smuggling attempt, he was reported by security, who thought it was fake medicine that could harm people and called the police.
The yellow-haired guy who went out to pee happened to hear it.
He got his hair cut and planned to go home afterwards.
He drove the car containing the medicine away alone, but he had never driven before and had a car accident.
"He's only twenty years old! He just wants to live. What crime has he committed?" Cheng Yong asked hoarsely, pulling his brother-in-law's collar, "Speak! Speak!"
My brother-in-law leaned against the wall in silence, not knowing what to say.
He used to look down on this useless brother-in-law, but now he looked at him sitting on the ground with tears in his eyes, but he couldn't say a word.
After the police left, all Cheng Yong got was Huangmao's train ticket.
The train ticket was for three days later. Huangmao had been away from home for a long time, wandering around at a young age just to avoid causing trouble to his family.
It's so hard to go back, but it's like a soldier died the night before the war ended!
It started to rain late at night, and the rain hit the glass particularly hard. Cheng Yong, who was already alone, held his forehead and cried like a monster.
My brother-in-law has also been struggling.
The medicine is not fake, it is effective and cheap.
But if it is smuggled and not on the domestic list, it is fake medicine.
But the faces of countless patients who could not afford medicine were struggling in his mind.
Pharmaceutical companies demand severe crackdown on drug smuggling!
The company spent billions of US dollars, and the selling price of 40,000 US dollars is just to spread the research expenses. Lowering the price is a matter for the future. The company still has to develop new drugs to save more people!
Are they wrong? No!
Without their R&D, there would be no Indian generic drugs. They are expensive now, but at least there is still hope. Without their R&D, we can only wait for death!
The brother-in-law could only suppress everything in his heart and obey the order.
Domestically, it is one thing, and overseas is another. Genuine companies go directly to India.
It makes generic drugs more difficult to buy. You can no longer purchase them from manufacturers and can only buy them from retailers, which will increase the cost a lot.
Liu Sihui asked again: "How much do you plan to sell this time?"
"Five hundred! I'll put some on myself."
Cheng Yong closed his eyes, his mind was filled with the shadow of Lu Shouyi, like a nightmare with a smile.
Liu Sihui's eyes moved but she didn't say anything.
Redemption? Maybe.
Is it to make up for it? Maybe.
The brother-in-law withdrew from the investigation, but Cheng Yong was still arrested.
The patients walked along the street to see him off. He cried, but not because he was arrested. He was not a saint. It was just that there were things in his heart that kept him tossing and turning.
The scene ended, and a large subtitle read: Based on true events.
The prototype of the film's protagonist Cheng Yong was introduced.
Final signature: Director Chen An’s work!
"Clap, clap, clap!" The loud applause spread throughout the entire theater.
Hundreds of people stood up and applauded, almost shaking up the entire theater.
Many viewers had red eyes.
Liu Songwen was reminiscing about his performance. This was also his first time watching a finished film.
Guangtou Xu swallowed his saliva. Under Chen An’s lens, he felt that he had a great chance of winning the International Best Actor Award!
Moreover, some of the illusory and landscape shots in the picture are unexpectedly beautiful. He was there during the filming, and it didn't feel like he was in the picture at all. A famous director is a famous director, worthy of being a graduate of the Photography Department of Beijing Film Academy.
The color composition lens sensitivity is extremely impressive.
The applause lasted for more than ten minutes and continued even after everyone went on stage.
"Thank you for your love. The audience with red eyes, please guess. It will be bad if there is misunderstanding later."
Chen An smiled and joked.
There was some laughter from the guests at the scene.
"The movie is very touching and moving. It is a rare subject in China. It is perfect but has many commercial elements. There are still many things that should be explored in depth. Why didn't Director Chen An shoot them?" The reporter's question is normal. After all, it is at a film festival, and this is what matters.
But Chen An left room for the film, without digging too deep, and the details were not revealed too clearly.
"Because that's enough. I can't give an answer to this question, and I can't give a subjective evaluation."
Chen An answered simply that it was good enough to be released, and digging deeper would be risking one's life.
This is far more explosive than the questioning of family in "Shoplifters" and the direct attack on class in "Parasite".
This is questioning the system, which is a dead end.
Chen An took the opportunity to continue speaking, called up the prototype of the film, explained it in detail, and asked the media to help promote it.
That's all we can do, and we'll just have to wait for news.
Although "Dying to Survive" only touched upon the surface in many aspects, the film as a whole still received high praise.
The heavy presence of commercial elements does not affect the main expression; the tragedy is contained in the outer layer of comedy, which makes the impact even stronger.
Other main creators were also interviewed.
Han Jianuo, as a screenwriter, counselor and one of the producers, was also the focus of the interview.
"I didn't expect Uncle Chen to be the director. After I gave him the initial draft of the script, he took it over."
"The filming of the film and other things were not easy. I am very happy to be able to appear on the show."
"I learned a lot. After all, being Uncle Chen's assistant director is something you can't learn anywhere else."
"."
Standing behind her was Han Sanping, so the media was naturally interested.
Xu Guangtou and others also kept asking questions, praising the acting skills of several people and calling them strong contenders for the Best Actor award!
After the screening, the film will continue to be screened during the film festival, which is also a source of income for the Magic Film Festival.
The world premiere ended perfectly.
'There is only one disease in the world, and that is poverty!'
'The clash between law and emotion, which is more important, human life or the system! '
'The art and commercial films that Chen An mentioned have a lot of artistic expression and can make more ordinary audiences watch them! '
'Chen An: The more people watch the movie, the greater the impact it will have, so we should try our best to get the audience into the theater to watch the movie! '
'Dying to Survive received 18 minutes of applause! '
'This time, Chen An set his sights on the system after "Shoplifters" and "Parasite"! '
'.'
After the premiere, publicity appeared everywhere, together with this year's Magic Film Festival!
The latter has made a lot of efforts!
In my previous life, the film was sent to Monterey, a foreign country. Although it had the title of the first among the three major ones, it was of little help to the country.
Of course, there is also the reason that novice directors do not have much confidence and want to bring back some funds from overseas.
Because no one knew that this non-purely commercial film directed by a novice could rake in over 30 billion at the box office!
It’s really awesome!
This time, it was shown at the Domestic Magic Film Festival and became famous as soon as it was released!
"Artistic commercial film? What do you mean?"
"I don't know. It won't be a loss to watch Chen An's movies."
"You should really watch it, brothers. I went to the scene and it's definitely something special [picture]!"
"No, buddy, what kind of movie made a bearded man like you cry like this?"
"."
"Dying to Survive" was extremely popular when it was released on the first day of the Chinese New Year. It was reported by various media outlets and was also featured in reports by foreign media.
They gave positive reviews.
The Magic Shadow Festival has made a great contribution. Influence is one aspect, but the domestic popularity also needs to be improved.
Make the international A-class film festival famous!
Don’t you know what an international A-level film festival is?
It’s okay, I’ll show you my fellow enthusiasts, now the three major European countries understand!
