I was rejected when I wrote a song, but I became a king on my debut.

Chapter 261 Don’t take the initiative and don’t refuse
The live broadcast switched from the stage to the audience seats. The sea of ​​red and the voices calling out for Zhou Yu were moving.

Red is Zhou Yu's support color.

As for why it is red, it is because Zhou Yu is a representative figure of Chinese culture, a promoter of traditional culture, an ambassador of Chinese medicine culture, and more importantly, because of that touch of Chinese red!

This shocking scene made countless viewers feel an inexplicable emotion. Even if they were not Zhou Yu's fans, they felt a little moved when they saw this shocking scene. Perhaps this is the romance between fans.

Zhou Yu also smiled when he saw this scene. He smiled happily and brightly. Scenes from the past, his life as a minor actor in his previous life, and his life from participating in "Son of Idol" to standing on the stage of CCTV's New Year's Eve Gala flashed through his mind...

After so long, the dream of the last life and this life has finally come true. Only he knows how long he has worked hard for this dream. Only he knows the hardships involved.

His eyes were red. The last scene was a freeze frame of Zhou Yu standing on the stage, bowing to the countless fans in the sea of ​​red...

Lin Jiajia's nose felt a little sour after watching this scene. This is the romance between fans and idols.

Zhou Yu is indeed an idol worthy of everyone's love. Lin Jiajia feels that at least she did not follow the wrong person.

This five-second scene of Zhou Yu in the red sea was edited and posted by many bloggers. Before tonight’s New Year’s Eve party was over, it had already become a hot topic!
"Zhou Yu and his fans are running towards each other!"

"Zhou Yu's New Year's Eve Party!"

"Zhou Yu CCTV live broadcast of the five-second red sea!"

"Zhou Yu's new song cultivates love!"

"Zhou Yu's new song goes all the way north!"

……

Zhou Yu's performance had just ended, and the hot searches about him had already dominated the top of the hot search list. And that's not all. On short video platforms, the video clips of Zhou Yu's stage performance tonight were also spreading wildly. Especially the last five seconds of his performance, the red sea and the scene of Zhou Yu bowing to the fans, deeply moved everyone.

What is an idol?
Zhou Yu demonstrated what an idol is through his actions.

Unlike those high-handed artists, Zhou Yu really doesn't have any airs. Even in the comment section of Zhou Yu's Weibo, you can often see Zhou Yu interacting with his fans. And Zhou Yu really doesn't seem to treat his fans as outsiders, and posts on Weibo as if they were just friends.

This is also the reason why Zhou Yu’s fans are so loyal and why more and more people like Zhou Yu.

At this moment on CCTV, Director Li was looking at the live broadcast data and was very excited.

"Four hundred and fifty million viewers! This... breaks the record!"

Director Li's tone became a little stuttering due to excitement. The number of live broadcast viewers reached 450 million!

With regard to the number of live broadcast viewers, apart from the Spring Festival Gala, I guess no other program or evening party can reach this number!

"This kid Zhou Yu has a really terrifying influence!"

The short time he performed two songs on stage attracted so many people to watch CCTV's New Year's Eve Gala. And because of Zhou Yu's effect, after he finished his performance, the live broadcast data declined, but overall it was much higher than before Zhou Yu came on stage.

"He alone raised the data of the entire station!"

Even the chief director of this CCTV New Year's Eve Gala couldn't help but sigh that today they had witnessed how powerful Zhou Yu was.

This guy is truly a well-deserved top star in China, and Zhou Yu's popularity and influence are still number one. The key is that he is still so young. If he is given a few more years to expand his fame and influence, and even go international, they really can't believe how terrifying it will be.

Moreover, as of now, Zhou Yu’s reputation in the countries surrounding China has already been established, but it’s not as terrifying as in China.

Director Li also patted the chief director on the shoulder and said with a smile: "This year, our station will probably be ranked at the top, which is rare."

The ratings of these entertainment evening shows on CCTV have always been low. Although CCTV has a high status and is the leader in China, due to its special nature, its entertainment value cannot be compared with that of local stations such as Mango TV.

Therefore, CCTV doesn’t pay much attention to the collection rate every year, after all, their main task is not to do so. But it’s better to have it than not to have it. If the results are better, everyone will be proud.

In previous years, they were always ranked in the middle, neither up nor down. But this year, perhaps they will be able to rush to the front because of Zhou Yu.

He alone pulled up the data for the entire station, which made Director Li feel that it was still possible. Even if the first place was not certain, the second place should be relatively stable.

Of course, if not, just pretend he didn't say anything.

With Zhou Yu's appearance, the New Year's Eve party was about to end. Although Zhou Yu was not the last guest, his appearance order was relatively late. After him, about half an hour later, the New Year's Eve parties of major channels ended.

Major celebrities and entertainers also celebrated the New Year with everyone, and some even sent New Year greetings to everyone on Weibo at the right times.

A lively New Year’s Eve party ended, a year passed, and the new year came unexpectedly.

On the next day, Zhou Yu slept until he woke up naturally. When he opened his mobile phone, he saw the messages sent by Wen Shiyi and Yang Qian.

Both of them arrived in the afternoon, preparing to participate in the first rehearsal of tomorrow's Spring Festival Gala.

Wen Shiyi: "I'll be there in the afternoon, let's find a place to have dinner together in the evening."

She remembered the agreement with Zhou Yu. They both had time tonight, so it was a good opportunity for her to get together. After the rehearsal tomorrow, she had to go to work, and Zhou Yu also had to go abroad to continue filming.

Yang Qian: "I'll be there in the afternoon, how about we get together for dinner tonight?"

Zhou Yu did not rush to reply. He simply washed up and asked the hotel staff to bring him a lunch before sitting on the sofa to reply to the message.

The first to reply was from Yang Qian.

Zhou Yu saw that she couldn't wait to go out for dinner tonight, but he had an appointment with Wen Shiyi tonight.

"You should have a good rest tonight. I happen to have something to do tonight. Anyway, I will have time after rehearsal tomorrow."

Then he replied to Wen Shiyi: "Okay, I'll just book a restaurant here."

Neither of them responded, probably because they were still on the plane.

Zhou Yu didn't care about that. After replying, he put his phone aside and ate his lunch peacefully.

On the plane, Wen Shiyi and Yang Qian were on the same flight. Although they did not sit together, they were separated by an aisle.

Wen Shiyi and Yang Qian were chatting across the corridor. They seemed calm, but they were both a little absent-minded. It seemed that their minds were not on chatting with their besties. Especially Yang Qian. Wen Shiyi had told her before that she liked Zhou Yu. But now...

This made Yang Qian feel a little guilty, but this was her own happiness, and since everyone was single, she didn't want to give up so easily.

Yang Qian had always wanted to find an opportunity to talk about her inner thoughts with her best friend, so she hesitated for a moment before asking.

"Shiyi, are you free tonight? We haven't seen each other for so long, how about having dinner together?"

When Wen Shiyi heard Yang Qian's words, her eyes flickered and she hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"How about we finish the rehearsal tomorrow? I'm a little tired today, and I have something to discuss after I go to the capital."

Wen Shiyi subconsciously wanted to conceal her itinerary with Zhou Yu. Before she and Zhou Yu confirmed their relationship, the more people knew about it, the more uncertainties it would bring.

Seeing this, Yang Qian pursed her red lips and said, "Is that so? It seems we can only get together next time. Then we can have a good chat."

Wen Shiyi looked at Yang Qian in confusion.

Yang Qian also subconsciously concealed the matter between herself and Zhou Yu, and explained: "It's like this, after the rehearsal tomorrow, I have something to do and I won't have time to accompany you, Shiyi, this time."

Wen Shiyi also knew that everyone was very busy recently, so she didn't think much about it. But she felt a little sorry in her heart, because the two sisters hadn't seen each other for a long time and hadn't been together.

"Then it seems we can only get together again later when we have time."

After the plane landed, the two stayed in the same hotel, but on different floors. Wen Shiyi was on the fourth floor, and Yang Qian was on the sixth floor.

"Shiyi, if you come back early in the evening, tell me and I'll come find you."

Yang Qian felt that this was also an opportunity. She had to make things clear with Wen Shiyi. She would not let Zhou Yu go so easily. The two of them were competing fairly, and she had to find an opportunity to talk to Wen Shiyi. She didn't want to lose such a good girlfriend and friend because of this kind of thing.

Wen Shiyi hesitated for a moment and just said, "See, if you come back late, we can only talk next time."

The two returned to their respective rooms on the same floor. After Wen Shiyi had packed up, she began to reply to Zhou Yu's messages.

"We're at the hotel. Where are you now?"

Yang Qian did the same thing. After sending Zhou Yu a photo of the hotel room, she also asked him.

"Are you resting in the hotel now?"

Zhou Yu was too lazy to have time today, and spent almost the whole day resting in the hotel. He slept until noon in the morning, had lunch, and then played games in the hotel. When he saw the message pop-up window, Zhou Yu finished the game before exiting and replying.

"Yeah, I'm at the hotel."

"You should take a rest first. I'll send you the location in the evening and go directly to the restaurant over there."

After replying to Yang Qian and Wen Shiyi respectively, Zhou Yu fell into an endless chat.

He was a little tired after talking for a while, so he said, "I have something else to do, so I won't talk for now."

Wen Shiyi didn't think much about it. She just thought that Zhou Yu was too busy and tired recently, so she told him, "Okay, see you in the evening!"

Yang Qian: "Well, you go ahead and get busy. See you tomorrow."

After finishing the chat, Zhou Yu sat on the sofa and looked up a restaurant for dinner tonight. He and Wen Shiyi were both public figures, so they definitely wouldn't be casual, so they had to find a more private restaurant.

After finding an old restaurant in Beijing and booking a private room, Zhou Yu went to take a shower and change clothes.

After he packed up, he played for a while and it was almost six o'clock. At six o'clock in the winter, it was already dark. He put on his coat, hat and mask and went out. The hotel was not far from the restaurant, about a twenty-minute drive. When Zhou Yu arrived, Wen Shiyi had not arrived yet.

He just waited for her in the box without urging her, because girls are always slower to go out.

Ning Wanqiu and Yuanyuan went out to play by themselves today. Anyway, there was nothing to do today, so they just took it as a holiday. Zhou Yu played with his phone in the box for a while, and after about ten minutes, he received a message from Wen Shiyi.

"I'm here." Zhou Yu said that he was in the box and asked her to just come over. A few minutes later, the door of the box was pushed open and Wen Shiyi, wearing a mask and a gray plush hat, walked in.

Today, she was wearing a short white down jacket, black waist jeans, and small leather boots, which made her beautiful legs look straight and slender. When she took off her mask, she revealed her cool and beautiful face. Her long hair was loose under her plush hat, and she had a chill because she had just come in from outside.

"coming."

Zhou Yu stood up and helped her put her bag away. Wen Shiyi looked at Zhou Yu, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, with a faint smile in her eyes.

"Well, I kept you waiting for a long time."

Zhou Yu smiled, stood up and greeted the manager who was receiving them, and then began to serve the dishes. This restaurant was considered a well-known old restaurant in Beijing, and it often received some public figures and even some leaders. Therefore, the employees were of good quality. Director Jiang Dan had brought Zhou Yu here once before. This time, Zhou Yu had contacted the manager in advance, and the manager personally received them.

"Mr. Zhou, please wait a moment. The food will be here soon."

The manager opened the red wine with a smile and brought it up. Seeing that it was Wen Shiyi who was having dinner with Zhou Yu, the manager was a little surprised, but thinking that tomorrow would be the Spring Festival Gala on CCTV, and that there were many celebrities who had booked the private room recently, it was not so strange.

Zhou Yu and Wen Shiyi have a good relationship, which is known to the whole network. It's just that the two of them came to eat alone, and the Internet is full of CPs for them, which made the manager unable to help but make up some things in his mind.

Is there really something going on between Zhou Yu and Wen Shiyi? Is the couple that netizens are dreaming of coming true?

However, since they work in such restaurants, they still have some professional qualities and know what to ask and what not to ask, what to say and what not to say.

And what if they are just getting together with good friends?

The manager also smiled and nodded at Wen Shiyi. After putting the red wine away, he went to urge the dishes to be served.

Wen Shiyi took a look, sat next to Zhou Yu and asked, "Have you been here before?"

Seeing that the manager seemed to be familiar with Zhou Yu, Wen Shiyi thought that Zhou Yu must have been here before.

"Yeah, I've eaten here before with Sister Dan and Director Li."

Zhou Yu took Wen Shiyi's glass and poured the red wine. At this time, the dishes were served one after another. When Wen Shiyi first heard Zhou Yu say that he had eaten here with Jiang Dan, her eyes flickered, but when she heard that Director Li was there, she felt relieved.

There were not many dishes for Zhou Yu and his companions, so they ate while chatting.

Wen Shiyi looked at Zhou Yu, her beautiful legs pressed together under the table. They had talked so much, all about work.

After dinner, Zhou Yu said, "It's getting late. Let me take you home. You have to catch a plane after rehearsal tomorrow."

Zhou Yu got up and put on his coat. Wen Shiyi also packed up and put on a hat and mask, but she was not in a hurry to go back.

"The hotel is not far from here. Let's go for a walk. We're full and need to digest our food."

Zhou Yu looked at her pretty face hidden by the mask, revealing only a pair of bright eyes looking at him expectantly.

"also."

Walking on the streets of Beijing, even on a cold winter night, it was still very prosperous. The two of them were wearing masks, so no one recognized them. As they walked, they came to a park.

Zhou Yu and Wen Shiyi walked side by side, their shoulders bumping into each other from time to time. Because it was the New Year's Day holiday, the park was also very lively, and there was even an atmosphere of welcoming the New Year everywhere. There was also a fireworks show in the park.

Inadvertently, their hands touched each other. Zhou Yu looked calm, but Wen Shiyi felt a little nervous.

"Will you return to the crew after rehearsal tomorrow?"

Wen Shiyi's ears also turned a little red. Perhaps she felt the atmosphere was a bit awkward. She pursed her red lips before asking a question.

"Yeah, almost."

The two of them strolled to the edge of the artificial lake, across from which was a fireworks show. The brilliant fireworks bloomed in the sky and were reflected in the lake, a breathtaking beauty.

Zhou Yu and Wen Shiyi stopped to watch the fireworks show. Lying on the fence, Wen Shiyi took a deep breath and turned her head slightly to look at Zhou Yu's profile.

As if he had made some kind of decision, he asked.

"Zhou Yu..."

"Ah."

Zhou Yu turned around and looked at Wen Shiyi. Their eyes met. Fireworks bloomed into beautiful flowers in the air. There seemed to be some ambiguous atmosphere spreading between them.

Wen Shiyi didn't know why, but her heart kept beating uncontrollably at Zhou Yu's deep gaze.

There were few people around at the moment. Wen Shiyi and Zhou Yu had already taken off their masks. Looking at Wen Shiyi's red lips that seemed to be hesitant to speak, Zhou Yu quietly waited for her to speak.

Taking a deep breath, Wen Shiyi looked at Zhou Yu's face, and after struggling for a long time, she asked that question.

"Have you ever thought about falling in love now?"

When she asked this question, the meaning was already very clear. Wen Shiyi felt as if her cheeks were burned by fire in this cold winter.

She could feel her heart beating faster, as if it was about to jump out of her throat.

Wen Shiyi stared at Zhou Yu, waiting for his answer.

Zhou Yu just stared at Wen Shiyi's cool and beautiful face, and he could see the anticipation and nervousness in her eyes.

In such an ambiguous atmosphere, with such questions asked and looking at him with such eyes, no matter how dumb Zhou Yu was, he knew what Wen Shiyi was thinking.

It was pretty much what she had expected.

He thought seriously for a long time before looking at Wen Shiyi and answering.

"I have thought about it. If I meet the right person, I will date him. I can't stay single forever."

He was not prepared to be single. His principle all along was never to take the initiative, refuse, or take responsibility.

When Wen Shiyi heard Zhou Yu's words, fireworks were reflected in her eyes. She seemed to become much more relaxed all of a sudden, with a smile as beautiful as a flower.

She was already satisfied with Zhou Yu's answer.

She looked at Zhou Yu, and that cold and pretty face seemed to have lost some of its usual coldness and become a little more shy.

"So do you have someone you like?"

When she asked this question, Wen Shiyi became nervous again and stared at Zhou Yu closely, afraid to miss any expression on his face.

Zhou Yu looked at Wen Shiyi. The fireworks bloomed in the sky and were reflected in the lake. It was magnificent.

Wen Shiyi seemed to be a little nervous because of Zhou Yu's gaze. She clenched her hands together and her palms were sweaty.

Zhou Yu stared at Wen Shiyi for a long moment before speaking with a smile.

“Yes…yes.”

Wen Shiyi suddenly became nervous and wanted to know who it was.

But seeing that Zhou Yu was staring at him, her eyes became somewhat evasive.

"Who is it?"

Wen Shiyi's voice trembled a little, which was rare. She felt that she was a little unsure of herself when facing Zhou Yu, her brother. His deep eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.

Now it was Zhou Yu's turn to remain silent. He just stared at Wen Shiyi.

Wen Shiyi didn't dare to look directly into Zhou Yu's eyes, but her heartbeat was getting faster and faster, and her cheeks were getting hotter and hotter.

Zhou Yu looked at himself like this...

Could it be that the person he likes is me?
Wen Shiyi's heart was beating fast. She glanced at Zhou Yu and then quickly looked away.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu slowly turned around, looked at the fireworks in the sky and spoke.

"Actually, I've been waiting for her to speak."

Zhou Yu's answer was irrelevant, but Wen Shiyi was confused at this moment.

The look in his eyes just now was so obvious. Was he hinting at me again?

Zhou Yu didn't say much, but turned his head to look at Wen Shiyi with a smile on his lips.

"Looking at the fireworks, although beautiful, they are fleeting..."

He stepped forward and looked back at Wen Shiyi: "It's getting late, we should go back."

Wen Shiyi was slightly stunned, looking at the blooming fireworks, which disappeared in an instant.

Looking at Zhou Yu's back, Wen Shiyi took a deep breath and followed him.

The two walked side by side again. Wen Shiyi was hesitant in her heart and looked at Zhou Yu beside her from time to time. Their hands touched each other from time to time.

The extremely ambiguous atmosphere made Wen Shiyi a little bit intoxicated. This was a feeling she had never experienced before. Recalling what Zhou Yu had just said, Wen Shiyi pursed her red lips and was about to say something.

The next moment, a child on a bicycle sped past her, and Zhou Yu subconsciously grabbed her hand.

"Be careful."
