Wu Qizhe and Audrey Hepburn spent a week in Rome, Italy, and then returned to Los Angeles together.
Audrey Hepburn went through that night and didn't want to stay in Italy. If she didn't have to film, she wanted to fly back to Los Angeles the next day.
On the first day of his return to Los Angeles, Wu Qizhe received an invitation from Gatsby, a small shareholder of his film company.
Gatsby bought a villa on New York's long island. He held a big party every night, but he did not participate in the carnival behind the scenes.
Wu Qizhe directly returned to New York with space transfer. Instead of calling Polaris or Phoenix, he drove to Gatsby's Long Island villa by himself.
It was only 8 p.m. at this time, but outside Gatsby's villa, there were already full of cars, and men and women constantly swarmed into Gatsby's villa.
Wu Qizhe felt that the scene he saw at the moment was very familiar, much like a scene he had seen in a movie.
Gatsby did not play with these singing and dancing people, but hid in the depths of the villa to drink.
The prompt sound of the system rings again, and the plot of the Great Gatsby is in disorder.
Wu Qizhe immediately responded. No wonder he felt familiar with the scene. It turned out that it was one of the scenes in the film the Great Gatsby.
The movie is about Nick, an unknown writer, coming to New York from his Midwestern hometown. Next to his house is Gatsby's luxurious house. There's a big party here every night. Nick meets Gatsby and is interested in Gatsby. The result of the inquiry is: Nick understands that Gatsby has a love affair in his heart.
Gatsby was not rich when he was young. He was a major officer. He fell in love with a girl named Daisy, and Daisy was fond of him. After the outbreak of the world war, Gatsby was transferred to Europe. As if by chance but by necessity, Daisy broke up with him and married Tom, a dandy from a rich family. Daisy's married life is not happy because Tom has another mistress. The satisfaction of material desire can not fill Daisy's spiritual emptiness. Gatsby is in great pain. He firmly believes that it is money that makes Daisy betray her virginity, so he is determined to become a rich man. A few years later, Gatsby finally succeeded. He built a luxury estate opposite Daisy's house. Gatsby spends a lot of money and plays all night, trying to attract Daisy's attention to save her lost love.
Moved by Gatsby's infatuation, Nick goes to visit her long lost cousin Daisy and conveys Gatsby's heart to her. Daisy is always deliberately provocative when she meets Gatsby. Gatsby faintly listens to her at her disposal, and naively thinks that the love affair has come to an end. However, the real tragedy starts quietly at this time. Daisy is no longer daisy. Daisy just regards their ambiguous relationship as a kind of stimulation. Nick finally noticed, but it was too late. Once, Daisy ran over her husband's mistress while driving in a state of confusion. Gatsby takes the responsibility of driving to protect Daisy, but Daisy has made up her mind to abandon Gatsby. Under Tom's provocation, his mistress's husband choked and killed Gatsby. Gatsby eventually became a complete victim. Gatsby didn't notice the mocking smile on Daisy's face until he died. Gatsby's tragedy lies in that he dedicates everything to his beautiful dream, while Daisy, as the embodiment of his ideal, only has a beautiful body. Although Daisy has long been moved, although he clearly recognized that "her voice is full of money", he still does not change his original intention and stubbornly pursues to revisit the old dream. People are holding a funeral for Gatsby, but Daisy and her husband are already on their way to Europe. It's over at last. Seeing the emptiness of human reality, Nick was deeply disgusted. With a tragic mood, he left the noisy, indifferent, empty and false metropolis and went back to his hometown.
Obviously, Gatsby in the film is Gatsby who helped himself in the film company before.
Gatsby is not only a shareholder of his film company, but also a bootlegger. Up to now, Gatsby is worth tens of millions of dollars.
His purpose is the same as in the movie, that is to find his love and his beloved woman. This film is starred by Xiao Li Zi, so Wu Qizhe has seen it more than once. Under the interpretation of Xiao Li Zi, it is absolutely a wonderful film. He also deeply sympathizes with the hero's experience.
The reason why classics are classics is that they exist in every area of every era. It is similar to "where there are people, there are rivers and lakes". From a certain point of view, classics is a kind of comprehensive view of rivers and lakes.
People in the East and West, and even the whole of New York, are speculating about Gatsby's origin and career. Just because they sing every night, they are rarely seen in the world, so ordinary people put embarrassing assumptions on Gatsby's face.
And this will exist at any time and anywhere. After all, most people always like to label things they don't know and are unfamiliar with as negative emotions. How cruel but realistic it is.
In a way, it can be said that how a person weaves his own dreams and then lives as he wants. Although the reality is that dreams always wake up, the light of the intersection of reality and dreams is shocking and has a heartbreaking beauty.
This society is decadent. Due to the changes in the new era, the polarization of the gap between the rich and the poor, the degeneration of the poor accepting fate, and the degeneration of the rich profligacy, everyone lives in the shackles of fate and is content with the status quo. No one denies all this, just as if they are keeping their posts one by one.
Only Gatsby is out of place in this decadent age. He worked hard to get out of his poor family and inferior status, and rose to a height that ordinary people could not imagine. Day after day, the bustling parties contain the craziness of the whole new York City, in which people indulge and degenerate, and only he soberly awaits his favorite girl in these erosions.
He was full of hope for everything, and even died hopeful in the phone call from his "beloved girl". He will never know that the girl he loves is actually as corrupt as this rotten city.
For the whole movie, there doesn't seem to be anyone here who's amazing. Gatsby may have great means in the process of creating the dreamland, but only to satisfy his never realized wish; Daisy is just a little girl who has been soaked in materialism for a long time, and even has no courage to work hard for love; Tom also has a great family, and not in personality.
As soon as Wu Qizhe arrived at the villa, a waiter led him to the villa, far away from the noise of the hall and garden.
