Chapter 30 Genius
Upon hearing this question, Wu Yuchen smiled.

To be honest, he had already answered this question with great ease.

However, when it came time to answer, he remained very sincere:
"I've been asked this question many times."

When I first presented this script, the students in the film group asked me questions, and this is how I answered them…

As he spoke, he roughly recounted his answer from back then, which drew the attention of everyone in the audience, prompting them to listen and reflect.

Then Wu Yuchen continued:
"Later, when I was doing the music, I was asked the same question again, and my answer was that there are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand people's eyes."

"And this time, after 'Car 44' was actually released, I had a new understanding."

There is a Western proverb: Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's.

The moment the movie is actually released, it will no longer belong to me as the creator.

I have something I want to express in it, but does what I think really matter that much to you all?

Wu Yuchen's meaning is quite clear: he has completed the creative work, and how you, the viewers, interpret and think about it is your own business.

This answer immediately sparked a buzz of discussion among the audience. Wu Yuchen's statement was quite novel to them, since they used to engage in heated debates with creators about the content and ideas behind their works.

The student who was standing there asking the question couldn't help but wonder, is it important? Or not?

Wu Yuchen didn't answer the first question he asked directly, but then Wu Yuchen threw another question at him. However, he felt that what Wu Yuchen said made a lot of sense.

He scratched his head and slowly sat down, feeling a little dazed for a moment, realizing he needed to clear his head when he got back...

The head of the performing arts department said with a smile, "This kid is really cunning!"

Without a doubt, Wu Yuchen simply used one question to replace the previous one, throwing the question back at the audience.

Xie Xiaojing replied with a smile, "But what he said is indeed correct."

"Old Xie, you're really going to protect him now!" the head of the performing arts department joked.

Hou Keming waved his hand, pointed at Wu Yuchen on the stage, and smiled:

"This kid can even answer a question in such an intriguing way. I really look forward to seeing him face reporters in the future!"

The teachers nearby laughed heartily upon hearing this, but they could all tell from Dean Hou's high regard for Wu Yuchen.

If you're not optimistic, can you really face reporters in the future?

This undoubtedly affirms his future!
At the same time, these teachers all had the same thought in their minds: their directing department at Beijing Film Academy was about to produce another genius!

Then, another student was called on by Wu Yuchen. He was a senior student who asked Wu Yuchen how he was able to get the crew together to film "Car 44" when he was a freshman.

This is undoubtedly a practical issue that many people are concerned about.

Wu Yuchen didn't hold back, since it was impossible to hide it, and recounted the whole process of how "Car 44" came about.

Many people were suddenly surprised to learn that there was such a thing as crowdfunding for movie production!

This has inspired many people, who may want to give it a try.
Looking at the eager expressions on the faces of many people below the stage, Wu Yuchen sighed inwardly, realizing that they only saw the success but not the difficulties involved!
Without a good script like "Car 44", without a team full of passion for film who are willing to spend money and work for free, without a director with mature practical experience like him, and without a group of promising actors selected with his visionary perspective, how could it have been so easy to succeed?
But Wu Yuchen will no longer say anything discouraging. You will only know how hard it is once you walk the path. There is no use in trying to dissuade people. Besides, maybe someone can succeed?

Next, Wu Yuchen continued to answer the questions one by one. However, these were basically the same questions that the film crew had asked him before, so he handled them with ease.

Some people asked him about technical issues and his experience during filming, such as certain camera techniques or whether he encountered any difficulties during filming. Wu Yuchen didn't hold back on any of these questions and told them everything he could, except for the matter concerning Jiang Qinqin.

Besides asking questions to Wu Yuchen, many others also asked questions to Jiang Qinqin, Sun Honglei, and Duan Long, the actors. The film screening started at 7 p.m., but the event didn't end until almost 10 p.m. It was only when the teachers said it was too late and ordered everyone to go home that the enthusiastic students finally dispersed.

Before Xie Xiaojing left, she smiled at Wu Yuchen and said, "Come see me tomorrow when you have time."

Wu Yuchen didn't know what Xie Xiaojing wanted to ask him for, but he figured it couldn't be anything bad, so he agreed immediately.

At this moment, Huang Lei walked over with a smile and patted Wu Yuchen on the shoulder:

"You're really something, kid!"

Huang Lei himself never expected that Wu Yuchen could make "Car 44" so amazing!
I originally just wanted to lend a hand, but I never expected that my help would result in such a stunning work.

Huang Lei is in a great mood right now, especially after seeing the "Special Thanks: Huang Lei" in the movie, he can't stop smiling.

"If I had known the filming would turn out this well, I definitely would have done it myself!" Huang Lei joked.

"Senior brother, you were the first person I contacted! You said you were busy with other things..."

After saying this, Wu Yuchen pulled Huang Lei aside and chuckled:
"Senior brother, I saw it all from the stage just now. You two were sitting in the corner, and the one next to you..."

Upon hearing this, Huang Lei immediately tugged at Wu Yuchen's arm: "Keep your voice down, mind your manners!"

After he finished speaking, he looked around.

Wu Yuchen smiled and made a zipper gesture over Huang Lei's mouth, then gave Huang Lei a thumbs up. He guessed that Huang Lei had basically won him over.

Then Wu Yuchen remembered something and said to Huang Lei, "Senior brother, I still have two thousand left of the money you gave me..."

What are you saying!
Don't mention this to me again!

Why are you being so polite with me?

Huang Lei adopted a serious expression, but softened his tone only when Wu Yuchen stopped speaking:

"Take your crew and have a good meal and two days of fun this weekend. If you get any good roles in the future, just remember to ask your senior brother!"

After Huang Lei finished speaking, he punched Wu Yuchen in the chest and then left gracefully.

Once everyone had almost left, the remaining crew members could no longer contain their joy and shouted:
"We made it!"

They clapped and hugged each other, celebrating their victory.

At this moment, no one regretted the money they had invested in the production. Instead, they felt that being able to participate in the production of "Car 44" was an incredibly honorable thing!
Then Jia Zhangke, Wu Pangzi, Chen Er, Sun Honglei, Duan Long and others all surrounded Wu Yuchen at the same time, and lifted him up and threw him into the air.

Everyone knows who the biggest contributor to the success of "Car 44" is!

The crowd cheered and tossed Wu Yuchen three times before stopping.

Wu Yuchen, having regained his footing, had a slightly flushed face and his hair was a bit messy, but he didn't seem to care. He raised his right hand:

"The crew is having a wrap party tomorrow, let's drink until we drop!"

"Awooo!" A group of people cheered around Wu Yuchen.

At this moment, Jiang Qinqin stood quietly to the side, a smile on her lips, watching the handsome boy who was surrounded by admirers.

She felt that he was shining, so dazzling that she couldn't bear to look away!
