Chapter 221: The Old Kun of Niu Bi
There is an endless stream of news about Shen Lang on the Internet, and various people from the entertainment industry have jumped out to either support or ridicule Shen Lang's "drama tyrant" behavior.

But Shen Lang didn't have time to pay attention to these things at this time.

A few days ago, Gu Jialan called Shen Lang and said that the American Independent Film Festival, the Sundance Film Festival, was coming to the capital for exchanges.

The country plans to find several well-known domestic directors and actors to participate.

Considering that Shen Lang played Afen's husband in "The Disciples" some time ago and eventually became the "Special Envoy for Drug Control" of the United Nations Anti-Drug Fund, and now has a little fame internationally, he was also invited to participate in this exhibition.

To be honest, Shen Lang rejected this kind of exhibition in his heart.

Communicate? Communicate about what?
The East and the West's understanding of movies is basically at the stage where the East imitates Western movies.

Shen Lang didn't want to go to great lengths to learn anything.

However, what he didn't expect was that at this exhibition, he actually met an American director who was very interested in Eastern films, especially Hong Kong films.

"Hello, my name is Quentin Tarantino! I'm a fan of yours!"

Looking at the white foreigner in front of him, Shen Lang was quite surprised.

The exhibition was full of groups of Chinese people chatting and laughing with foreigners, but this man was unique and pushed through the crowd to greet Shen Lang enthusiastically.

Gu Jialan was about to translate for Shen Lang, but he was already prepared. He used his parrot-like skill to speak in standard English, "Hello, do you know me? Which movie of mine have you seen?"

The young man named Quentin said excitedly, "Lang, I didn't expect you to speak English so well. Your accent... If you hadn't told me you were Chinese, I would have thought you were from California!"

Are you kidding? I play the West Coast.

In fact, the person Shen Lang was imitating was the one in front of him.

After introducing each other, it was found that the young man named Quentin was from Manhattan, California, and currently worked as an employee in a video rental store.

Because of my interest and hobby, I took a group of colleagues and friends to shoot an independent film called "Reservoir Dogs".

Well, because the movie received good response, I was officially included in the exchange team.

Quentin is a very talkative American: "The store I work in is called Video Archives. It's in Manhattan, California. This store is a hodgepodge of movies from all over the world!"

"Haolaiwu, documentaries, movies from all over the world, cult movies, haha, my friend, are you surprised? No, it's nothing, we even have a special [C-rated movie] area!"

Hearing this, Gu Jialan felt a little embarrassed, so he left on the pretext of going to the bathroom.

Shen Lang smiled and said, "Are you familiar with Chinese movies? Do you know me?"

Quentin was surprised and said, "Brother, God knows why I like Chinese movies so much, especially two dramas - "The Forest of Confucius" and "The Days of Yangguan Shenlan"!

"Fuck!" Shen Lang laughed, "Don't talk if you can't speak Chinese well!"

"What? What did you say?" Quentin scratched his head when he heard Shen Lang speak Chinese.

Shen Lang smiled and said, "Chungking Express and In the Heat of the Sun, are you talking about these two movies?"

Quentin was pleasantly surprised: "YES, YES. These two movies, this one!"

After saying that, he gave a thumbs up.

Shen Lang said: "It's really awesome!"

"Que?"

"Awesome! Learn pronunciation from me, awesome!"

"Girl Pen!"

"All right!"

"What is a girl pen? Lang!"

"Awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome... Anyway, just know that this means [good], [awesome], [very awesome]!"

"Lang, you are a bitch! I've seen your movie "Black Gold", and the villain you played in the movie is awesome!"

Shen Lang: "..." "Chungking Express is a bitch's movie. No one will dislike Wang Fei after watching this movie. Wang Fei is a bitch's movie!"

"Brother, that's enough. If Wang Fei knew that she turned into Niu Huanxi, she would be so happy!"

……

Although Quentin is a foreigner who speaks in a rather silly way, he is a very interesting person when he speaks his mind.

There was a cocktail party after the exhibition, but it was obvious that this foreigner, who was a bit immature and non-mainstream, didn't like this kind of occasion very much.

"Lang, can I come to your house and sit for a while? I want to feel the Chinese family atmosphere! God knows how much I like the warm family atmosphere in Hong Kong movies. We can't feel that in America."

"Let's go!" Shen Lang and Lao Kun seemed to be getting along quite well, so he agreed without thinking.

Seeing that this person was actually going to Shen Lang's house, Gu Jialan said to Shen Lang: "Take my car, I'll take you there!"

Shen Lang tapped his phone and said, "No need, take a look at our capital city!"

Gu Jialan: “…”

Five minutes later, Quentin held Alang's waist, sat on the back seat of the bicycle like a little wife, and set off.

Ten minutes later: "Lao Kun, come on down and ride for a while! Do you know how heavy you are?"

Quentin: "Girl Pen!"

Half an hour later: "Fuck! Finally they're here. If they were farther away, I would be ruined today."

Gu Jialan, who was standing at the door, leaned against the car and smiled, "How was the chat with the common people of the Moldy Emperor?"

Shen Lang looked hopeless and stood aside to show Lao Kun. When Lao Kun saw Gu Jialan, he grinned and said, "Girl Pen!"

Gu Jialan almost couldn't hold back his laughter. He controlled his expression for a long time before he smiled and said, "There are reporters inside."

Shen Lang frowned when he heard this and asked, "What's going on?"

"What else could it be? It's just about the reshoots for 'The Hidden Cam'. The interview uncle and Aunt Wu are here!"

Shen Lang nodded and said to Quentin: "Let's go, this is my home!"

……

As soon as he walked into the living room, Shen Lang found Shen Biao sitting in a wheelchair and being interviewed by a reporter.

When Wu Mei saw him and Gu Jialan coming in with a foreigner, she was about to speak, but Shen Lang smiled and waved his hand.

Because Shen Biao and the reporter team were interviewing behind a partition in the living room, they didn't know that Shen Lang had returned.

After they sat down, Shen Lang heard Shen Biao say, "I know my son best. If he wants to change it, he must have his reasons. He didn't mention it to me, but I believe he must have sought the director's consent before making the changes."

Seeing that Quentin was confused, Gu Jialan acted as a translator and translated the conversation to Lao Kun, and then briefly told him what had happened to Shen Lang recently.

Quentin was surprised when he heard this: "Lang, you actually know about screenwriting?"

"A little bit!"

"Niu~~~~Bi~~~~" Quentin said in surprise, "It just so happens that I have a movie in preparation right now and I'm planning to find a few partners. Are you interested?"

Shen Lang asked curiously: "What's the content?"

"It consists of three stories, with three main characters: a killer with his own moral standards, a gangster's mistress, and a boxer from the lower class. The story is still being written!"

Shen Lang's hand holding the water cup stopped in mid-air and he stared at Quentin in a daze: "Is this old Quentin talking about Pulp Fiction? Damn it!!!"

　People who are familiar with Quentin should know that this plot is based on a prototype.

　　He really likes Hong Kong movies and films directed by the director surnamed Jiang.

　　Moreover, he was carried around the capital by a few college students from Beijing Film Academy.

　　I drank Erguotou, visited the set of "The Emperor's Ode to Qin", and learned how to write "Niuniu Bi"!
　　Yes, it is the famous [Niuniu Bi]!
