"Ladies and gentlen! Let's first take a look at the docuntary!"
"Oh oh!!!"
Although the Sundance Film Festival is also a film festival, it is relatively not as famous, so there aren't as many rules.
During the award ceremony, things naturally beco more relaxed.
Actually, among the three major film festivals in Europe, aside from so major awards, the smaller awards are quite casual as well.
And so of the prestigious critic awards in the United States are also quite straightforward when presented.
It's not that this world is entirely makeshift, but quite often it really is.
For example, at the Oscars, there might be a nationally known codian as the host.
So at Sundance, why not find a relatively famous codian locally to host?
And any artistic performances, dancing, singing, etc.
Let's skip those. Anyway, we have plenty of awards; there might not be enough ti for them.
Of course, it's not so ager.
Hollywood still has quite a few famous stars and big shots, and there are plenty of directors too.
After all, it's been so many years.
It's just that the Sundance Film Festival isn't as solemn as those big film festivals or award ceremonies.
Overall, it's more casual, and there's more interaction between everyone.
First, the docuntary awards are presented, and the award presenter is quite sothing.
A famous Hollywood star, Nicole Kidman, is the award presenter.
That's right, she's not just here for fun.
She's a top-tier star now, and the atmosphere livens up as soon as she interacts with the crowd.
Even if our film festival feels like a makeshift operation, there's celebrity support.
Not bad, not bad.
The news is definitely there.
But when it cos to the dramatic feature...
"The audience's choice for Best Picture... 'Infiltration'!"
Well, it won directly!
What about Jas Wan then?
"Sorry, Director Jas Wan has so personal matters, so I'll be accepting the award on his behalf."
Lead actress Charlize Theron ca out to accept the award, which is really...
"Oh oh!"
No worries, many filmmakers and movie fans present didn't care.
The key is, Charlize Theron is truly beautiful.
Her accepting the award is quite pleasing to the eye, isn't it?
Moreover, it's likely that even if 'Infiltration' won other awards, Charlize Theron would probably be accepting them too.
This... definitely has an impact.
But purely from the perspective of presenting and accepting awards, the impact is very small.
However, most people attending the festival understand.
The film festival may seem like it's about screening films and presenting awards, but in reality, it's about business behind the scenes.
Now the director has sothing to do... could it be to discuss business?
If it's not to discuss business, then what about the business thereafter?
There are quite a few big companies at the Sundance Film Festival, and many people hope to snag so cheap independent films and distribute them themselves.
Of course, business discussions are mainly the investors' responsibility.
This film is quite special; the investor is a doctor, so where's this doctor?
Those who pay attention will notice that Zhou Mo Sen is not at this award ceremony either.
What's going on?
In this world, there aren't many people who pay attention.
And among such few attentive individuals, there's a very special presence.
She is Jennifer Connelly.
Honestly, she actually knows so inside information, but not completely.
The owner only told her that everything's OK.
And instructed her to continue attending normally.
Unexpectedly, the owner isn't here.
And even though her husband is here, along with the director and another screenwriter...
"What's wrong?"
"Oh, nothing, nothing."
Paul naturally noticed sothing, but just thought his wife had sothing on her mind.
Jennifer Connelly was actually very worried about Zhou Mo Sen, she even regretted telling him about Jas Wan's situation.
But not saying it would be worse.
As for now...
"For the drama category... Best Actor... Paul Bettany!"
Huh?
Won an award?
Jennifer Connelly imdiately switched her state.
"That's great!"
"Aha!"
The couple embraced, truly an enviable pair.
But no one knows, they haven't had a married life for a long ti.
But it doesn't matter, at least their feelings are still good.
Just the situation with the owner...
The husband was on stage accepting the award, very happy.
But Jennifer Connelly was worrying about soone else, which is really sothing.
However, her concern is justified, as Zhou Mo Sen and his group do have so risks.
In fact, it's not just her worrying; a few others are concerned too.
"Hopefully nothing will happen, right?"
"Idiot! How could the ntor have trouble!"
"Then we..."
"Act according to the plan."
Daddario, Ivan Mc, and the others have been having a great ti these days.
And not seeing the master at the mont, they are indeed quite worried.
Fortunately, the master had ntioned so things before, though not too clearly.
But also told them not to worry.
More importantly, the few of them have their own plan too.
Only this plan needs to wait a bit longer.
Although there are many awards at the Sundance Film Festival, it eventually cos to an end.
Usually, there will be a drink party after the awards, which is even more important than the award ceremony itself.
Because such a party is a perfect occasion for business talks.
That is, it's the true key to the film festival.
At the party, Paul and Jennifer Connelly were quite popular.
After all, Paul was crowned as best actor, albeit at the Sundance Film Festival.
And Jennifer Connelly?
"Jenny, your choice was the right one."
Said with such kindness, it was of course Charlize Theron.
But, she seed to have a hidden aning in her words.
Jennifer Connelly pretended not to understand.
"Yes, I always make the right choices."
Though she had to act, she indeed had to, even if she didn't like it, there was no choice.
Yet, Charlize Theron is currently very famous, even though Jennifer Connelly beca famous earlier.
But now there seems to be a trend of being overtaken.
Just like this...
"Those n are talking business, how about we enjoy our own ti?"
Private ti?
It seed to sound quite good.
"That's a good idea."
Jennifer Connelly nodded, and Charlize Theron handed over a drink.
This action was very natural; Jennifer Connelly wasn't in a hurry to drink, she just held it, and then they found a slightly quieter place.
The actions of these two could be described as very usual.
The only unusual thing was that people like Daddario, Ivan Mc, also followed them.
This scene was noticed by soone.
She was the one who just served as the presenter for the Best Actor award, Scarlett Johnson!
This star, mature at the age of 20, found it very strange.
"What are those guys up to?"
Silently followed them.
...
Park City, Snow Mountain Villa.
Zhou Mo Sen did not attend the award ceremony for a reason.
And this reason was sitting beside him.
"Wow! This Descent Sect really seems worth learning about!"
Jas Wan, this guy, had just listened to that Bishop preach for quite a while, and his eyes were glowing now.
Really, it was baffling.
Indeed, Zhou Mo Sen had co to the site of the Saint Master's sermon by the Descent Sect.
In fact, upon his appearance, even though Bishop wore a mask, his eyes lit up.
Everyone considered each other rivals.
This scene was very interesting.
As for Jas Wan, this guy… he seed curious about everything.
This ti in Salt Lake City, upon hearing about the Descent Sect, he had to co and see.
Well, mainly because of that Warner.
Warner was actually the guy who saws his leg in the opening scene of "Saw 1".
Indeed, it was him, and actually, he was the screenwriter of "Saw", Jas Wan's best friend.
This guy, after hearing about the Descent Sect, was truly curious.
Previously, he heard about the Interdiate State Body, and was very curious.
So, there was nothing to say.
Just co.
Zhou Mo Sen also ca, he wanted to pull these two guys away from here.
After all, this cult was no good.
But now…
"Everyone! Have you experienced the touch of the devil?!"
Bishop, this guy, indeed had sothing, his words were quite persuasive.
What does the touch of the devil an?
"Saint Master! My leg hurts terribly! The doctor said it's bone cancer!"
Good heavens, here it cos?
Zhou Mo Sen thought to himself, but the white middle-aged man, who cried out in pain, had already been invited on stage.
Next… yes, cult's traditional thods.
Display miracles.
Cure the illness.
Can bone cancer be cured on the spot?
Bishop kept talking, but Zhou Mo Sen noticed his actions.
The Saint Master gave the middle-aged man a sip of so water.
After that, the middle-aged man seed to... fall into a special state.
Sowhat akin to being unconscious, but only vaguely similar.
Even sowhat like a zombie.
Hmm… Zhou Mo Sen had roughly figured it out in his mind.
But after that, the middle-aged man recovered!
"It doesn't hurt! It doesn't hurt at all!"
In an instant, the whole site seed to explode.
Many simply believed, many were cheering and heckling.
Just like this... in Arica here it's really nationwide anti-intelligence.
These guys are too easy to fool!
Zhou Mo Sen realized this, but he turned his gaze elsewhere.
Chris Pratt now was a chubby handso guy, quite tall.
But now… Zhou Mo Sen's gaze ca over, and he understood.
And what does Zhou Mo Sen's gaze an?
Little Fatty, make a move!
Ahem… here it should be said: Please start your performance.
Suddenly!
Uh uh uh~
Chris Pratt seed possessed, foaming at the mouth and convulsing all over!
In a swoosh, many people backed off a space.
A lot of the followers were stunned.
And Bishop was even more dazed… was this part of the arrangent?
Yet at this mont… Zhou Mo Sen stepped out directly.
"He needs a doctor! I am a doctor! Please move aside!"
Saying a doctor is needed in a cult?
Bishop imdiately shouted, "He doesn't need a doctor!"
In an instant, the two were in direct confrontation!
