Chapter 51: A Somniferous Movie

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

An hour into the movie, Qiao Yue felt that the saddest thing was that she couldn’t go to sleep even when watching such a somniferous movie.

Hearing Qiao Yu’s snoring, Qiao Yue also wanted to yawn but she didn’t want to go too far since Qiao Ze was so focused.

“Go to sleep if you’re tired,” said Qiao Ze suddenly. “You don’t have to keep me company.”

Qiao Ze touched Qiao Yue’s head gently. His hand was big and warm, and his touch made Qiao Yue feel at ease.

Qiao Yue turned to look at Qiao Ze. It was said that men who were focused were the most attractive. As expected, the current Qiao Ze made Qiao Yue forget how he usually looked.

“What’s wrong?” Qiao Ze asked when Qiao Yue didn’t answer.

Qiao Ze’s voice was a little deeper and hoarser than usual, like notes from a cello flowing through the air. It was a pleasure to listen to him speak.

“Third brother, you’ll take on all kinds of movies?”

It had to be said that uncultured people like Qiao Yue and Qiao Yu couldn’t appreciate arthouse films. Qiao Yu fell into a deep sleep less than half an hour into the movie, but Qiao Yue forced herself to watch it with Qiao Ze for an hour, which was all that she could bear.

At first, she was curious about what was sadder than sadness. But now, she felt like she was at the verge of a breakdown.

To sum it up, the sad story in this movie was about the protagonist’s tough life, death of family, the male protagonist’s terminal illness, the female protagonist’s car accident, the male protagonist finding a husband for the female protagonist, and the female protagonist getting engaged to someone else for his sake even when she was unwilling. At the wedding, the female protagonist suddenly realized that she wanted to be with the male protagonist until his last moment, so she resolutely became a runaway-bride.

Qiao Yue expressed that she didn’t get the logic. What bad things did the male protagonist do in his previous life to have met these two people?

Qiao Ze chuckled. “Not really. It’s just a contract.”

A contract? With Qiao Ze’s status, he wouldn’t care about contracting with a company, right?

Although Qiao Yue didn’t understand, she still replied with an “oh”. KA owned two entertainment companies, but Qiao Yue was never interested in this field, so she left these companies in the hands of her subordinates.

After thinking for a moment, Qiao Yue said tentatively, “Brother, I don’t think you should take on such movies anymore. They are a bit…”

Just as Qiao Yue was constructing her sentence, Qiao Ze finished her sentence.

“Not portraying the right values?”

Qiao Yue didn’t say it directly out of consideration for Qiao Ze’s face, but Qiao Ze said it himself.

Qiao Yue nodded awkwardly.

In fact, the reason Qiao Ze did not reject the company’s request to shoot this movie was to repay the kindness of his manager when he ran away from home during his rebellious time and met him under a different name.

Secondly, many of the female leads and supporting actresses in the movies he made in China invested in those movies to get close to him. He could get a lot of information about other families from these people.

The room quieted down, and after a moment, Qiao Ze laughed and said, “Xiao Yue doesn’t like me acting in this kind of movie?”

Actually, it wasn’t a case of like or dislike. Qiao Yue just felt that this kind of movies would make people stupid. With Qiao Ze’s influence, if young kids believed in this kind of plot, it would affect the next generation.

In order to stop Qiao Ze from making such movies, Qiao Yue expressed her thoughts directly, “The logic doesn’t make sense, the backstory is weak and the feelings between the protagonists are inexplicable. They want an earth-shattering love but expect the other person to give. They readily accept others’ sympathy but still hurt the people around them. I don’t understand. And until now I can’t figure out what the movie is trying to convey to the audience.”

Qiao Yue’s serious analysis almost made Qiao Ze spit out the soda in his mouth. His fifth brother was really not suited for arthouse films.

To put it bluntly, what was the purpose of a romance genre arthouse film? It’s just three words – love above all.

In the face of love, family, friends, courtesy, honor, shame, morality, and ethics were all ranked after love. If Qiao Yue’s analysis was true, almost 90% of the arthouse films would be thrown into the garbage can.

Qiao Ze wiped his mouth with a tissue and cleared his throat. “You can’t watch movies with your brain.”
