Huayu: As a child star, I just want to be famous

Chapter 481: A happy marriage? Really sweet warning!
"20 per week. Today is the fifth time. In other words, this is the final execution list, right?"

"Yes, all the worries and fears of the previous month depend on this wave."

"Haha, this is what I like to see the most. Shark, make the shark's head bleed and the corpses are everywhere!"

“Directors who are completely out of the game include Johnnie To, Anhua Hui, Gu Changwei, Guan Hu, Lu Chuan, Zheng Xiaolong, etc.;
Only one film remains, starring Feng Xiaogang, Chen Kexin, Wu Yusen, Jia Zhangke, Liu Weiqiang, Wang Jing and others.

There is only one wave left. Who will be eliminated at this last moment? Buy it and leave it!"

"..."

"Haha, these netizens are really interesting. I don't know how they come up with some of their ideas."

Liu Qianqian was reading the comments with great interest and before she knew it, the time had come.

"Yeah, the new list is out."

Chen Linfeng also leaned over to look.

Almost all the works on this list are relatively famous, some of which I have seen in appreciation classes in school.

Several movies, including "The Burning of the Old Summer Palace", "The Emperor and the Assassin", and "Raise the Red Lantern", are on the list.

In the previous few rounds, more films from Hong Kong and Taiwan were hit, but now it is the turn of many mainland films to be eliminated.

Liu Qianqian clapped her hands happily, "Now all three of our films have made it into the top 100, that's great."

"Haha, I thought I would fail in this round." Chen Linfeng said with a smile.

At this point, many famous directors only have one representative work left.

Chen Kaige was not able to avoid it, and only had one film left, "Farewell My Concubine".

There are few who can leave behind more works such as Stephen Chow's "The King of Comedy" and "Kung Fu".

The credit for "A Chinese Odyssey" was not given to him but to Liu Zhenwei.

Fang Long's "Police Story" series and "Drunken Master" series squeezed into the list thanks to the series bonus.

As for "Project A", "Operation Eagle" and "Rumble in the Bronx", they have already been listed.

Both of them have produced numerous classic works, but they are at a disadvantage in terms of the types of their works, so only the absolute classics remain.

Next up is Chen Linfeng, with 3 works on the list.

He originally thought that Whiplash was going to fail, but it seems that fame did the trick.

Many filmmakers who have the right to vote may not have seen many works.

During the voting process, if you come across something you haven’t seen before, you usually have to check first to see if you have heard of the name.

If there is nothing else to say about Chen Linfeng, it is that he has been reported by the media many times.

Even if you haven’t seen the movie, you must have heard the name many times.

Maybe you have seen the name of "Whiplash" somewhere, and after seeing it many times, it has left an impression in your mind.

In addition, the introduction of the voting page is also a key point.

The introductory remarks in the introduction will highlight the key points, and the three major European companies are still very prestigious.

Often at this step, some judges begin to make judgments.

Only those who are more attentive will try to understand the general plot, or check the ratings and public reviews.

There are not many people who are careful enough to watch the original films. At most, only those who are unsure will watch a few of them in the last round.

And to be honest.

With so many classic works squeezed together, the top three in China are no longer a big deal.

As for the top three in Europe, no matter what, they are all solid results.

Just look at the list of the top 15 and you will know that China has won 6 of the three major European awards (2 Berlin Golden Bears + 7 Palmes d'Or + Golden Lions).

Of these 15 films, only 2 did not make it into the top .

After the latest batch of lists were announced, the top 100 were finally determined.

However, the topic did not end.

Almost all of the top 100 works are movies that are well-known to the public. Even if some of them were not familiar to you before, you will become familiar with them after discussions and popularization of knowledge by netizens over the past one or two months.

Even Liu Xixi can name every movie she mentions.

So naturally, the ranking of the 100 movies on the list has become a hot topic again.

Anyway, the war will not stop as long as the final result is not announced.

For this reason, Chen Linfeng's daily time online has increased significantly. There is no other way, eating melons is good for the body and mind.

Of course, the real work still needs to be done.

I spend half of my time every day on post-production of the film and the other half on writing the novel.

The previous life of "Lord of Mysteries" was about 450 million words. He was considering making up for the problems of rapid pace and progress in the later period, and the final number of words is likely to exceed 500 million.

With such a long word count, you definitely need to plan well.

Especially for someone like him who already has the whole book in his mind, he needs to plan well for the subsequent writing and sales to proceed smoothly.

The most special part of "Lord of Mysteries" is the first volume.

Many people don’t like the content of the first volume when they first read it.

Because the rhythm of this volume is more similar to the writing style of a short story.

Except for a few foreshadowings and main plots, most of the plot is relatively closed, and each line has been recycled as much as possible.

There is also a clear separation between this and the contents of the following volumes.

This writing style is actually quite consistent with physical publishing, and various habits are very similar.

When Chen Linfeng was writing, he added some slight descriptions of the atmosphere of the times.

Online novels definitely can’t do this. Who cares about the environment around the protagonist?

I just want to know where the protagonist is and who he is going to kill!
But physical books are different. Readers’ patience levels and reading speeds are completely different.

Adding descriptions of the environment and atmosphere can significantly enhance the reader's sense of immersion.

Chen Linfeng has been writing novels for many years, and he has actually been thinking about the preferences of his readership.

The previous version of "Lord of Mysteries" was said to be "the most physical novel on the Internet", and the current version is directly a physical novel type.

While writing novels at home, the two big brothers of the Chen family and Liu Xiaoli would always come to discuss things.

Chen Linfeng and Liu Qianqian have been together for quite some time, and they really can't delay any longer.

Both parents were a little anxious.

In the first half of the year, it was confirmed that time would be reserved for the second half of the year.

Now that the filming of "Inception" has been completed, there is really nothing else to do except writing novels at home.

It's time to talk about lifelong events.

The three parents set the date in October and started preparing last month.

Nowadays, we meet every now and then to discuss the procedures for doing things.

Chen Linfeng and Liu Qianqian had discussed before that only family members and one or two friends at most would be invited to the wedding.

It's best not to say anything.

It became known to everyone, the scene was so big, there were even reporters, it became a complete show, not like a real life.

Moreover, Chen Linfeng was a little wary of the examples from his previous life. Almost all those who held luxurious weddings got a share.

Even those celebrity couples who often show their affection on Weibo tend to die quickly because of showing off their affection.

Chen Linfeng and Liu Qianqian both paid special attention to this aspect.

It is common for the two to interact occasionally on Weibo, but they never go out of their way to show off.

Even though the media reported from time to time that they had broken up, they didn't take it seriously.

Anyway, since it has been passed on so many times, no one cares about it anymore.

Netizens even went so far as to curse those marketing accounts and big Vs.

"It's not over yet, right? Can you please be quiet for a while?"

"We've been together for so many years, and you still want me to make trouble here?"

"It's purely for the purpose of making money. Please be careful not to spread rumors or believe them."

"Which serious couple would post pictures of themselves on Weibo every day? If you want to see a couple showing off their affection, go find other celebrities. True love doesn't involve these fancy things."

"..."

This is getting off topic, because we decided to keep it small and only invite our own people.

Therefore, there is no need to find a company to undertake the wedding.

The parents of both sides took charge of the matter.

In order to achieve perfection, they would occasionally seek advice from the newlyweds.

Chen Linfeng's villa became the best place to discuss things.

It was fine at the beginning. Chen Linfeng and Liu Qianqian were still participating in it with great interest and offering suggestions.

But soon, they began to find it troublesome and avoided it as much as possible.

"Dad, why don't you just decide it yourself?" Chen Linfeng said helplessly, "I don't know anything about hiring someone to check the horoscope, choose the date, and the procedures behind it. It's useless to consult with me."

In fact, he knew a little bit. He had read so many books that he knew the wedding procedures and differences of each dynasty.

However, it is useless here.

The elders were obviously more enthusiastic about the discussion, and the final result was based on the customs of recent years.

The traditions that Chen Linfeng knew were too outdated and old.

Ms. Wang Yanping rolled her eyes at him and said, "You have to learn only if you don't understand."

"Why learn this? You only get married once in your life, and I don't believe in it."

Being reborn again, of course, there is some awe.

But it is really hard to say whether these things are useful or not. As long as they do not violate taboos, it will be fine. He is not really interested in understanding them.

But this doesn't make sense in front of the older generation.

Even her parents, who have always been more open-minded, or Liu Xiaoli, who is more Western-style, are the same.

Liu Xiaoli even wanted to invite a foreign priest.

This is where the contradiction lies. Should a Chinese wedding be interspersed with Western procedures, or vice versa, or is it purely Chinese or Western?

Ms. Liu and Ms. Wang both have their own opinions.

Chen Linfeng was so confused by their questions that his head almost exploded.

Fortunately, he was writing a novel, and everyone knew that this was a very important matter for him, so generally people would avoid it when he was busy.

I will only ask when I have free time.

This made Chen Linfeng more and more addicted to writing and unable to extricate himself.

Anyway, I won't be in charge of anything. Leave it to you. I'll be typing.

In order to escape, Liu Qianqian also came up with a series of strange tricks.

Shu Chang, Yang Mi, Liu Shishi, Jing Tian, ​​each one became an excuse.

I would go out to play with them every now and then.

Eventually, several elders also noticed it.

"I'm asking you to give me some advice, but it's like I'm going to kill you. It's nothing."

"It's more painful than killing me. Just like Xiaofeng said, you elders should decide everything. We have no objection."

Liu Qianqian hugged Shu Chang's arm and carefully offered him some advice.

Shu Chang was pulled over by her to be a shield. He was usually the most popular among the adults, but now he felt very uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Liu Xiaoli still felt sorry for her daughter. "Forget it. If they really don't want to take care of it, then let's decide it."

"Alright."

Wang Yanping and Liu Xiaoli walked arm in arm into another room to talk. After a while, Chen Shantong was also called over.

Old Chen had no choice but to serve as an advisor throughout the process.

Only Liu Qianqian and Shu Chang were left chatting in the living room.

"Xixi, where is Xiaofeng? Why can't I see him?"

"I was writing a novel in the study," Liu Qianqian got angry when she talked about this. "This traitor ran away on his own and left me behind."

Fortunately, she was smart and found a friend to hide with for a few days.

"Haha, you two are really funny." Shu Changle is very happy and gossips about these two people every day.

But she soon discovered the point, "Xiao Feng is writing a new novel?"

"Well, I've been designing it for several months, and I just started writing it not long ago." Liu Qianqian has always been very concerned about Chen Linfeng's novel writing. She knew it from the time he was thinking about the outline.

Shu Chang asked around for a while, but still didn't quite understand anything about Cthulhu, so he decided to buy the book after it was finished.

"Hey, you guys are planning to get married in the blink of an eye. Are you really determined to spend the rest of your lives together?"

"But what else can we do? We've already got it in his hands." Liu Qianqian looked towards the study, with a hint of sweetness in her words.

Of the two, she was the first to take the initiative, and she has always been the weaker party in the relationship.

Liu Xiaoli reminded her many times not to give it away so easily.

But there is no way, I can't help it.

Fortunately, Xiaofeng’s personality is very compatible with hers, and they have never had a quarrel in all these years.

Although Chen Linfeng sometimes has bad intentions and likes to make her angry.

But it was obviously a joke, and she couldn't keep a straight face when the other party started to coax her.

Come to think of it, it really is a bit of a waste, Liu Qianqian thought.

"You really have completely fallen for it. No one is around. I am grinning just thinking about it."

Shu Chang said with a click of the tongue, "With your personality, you must have suffered a lot, right?"

Liu Qianqian was very embarrassed. "No way, I didn't think about anything. Please don't wrongly accuse me."

"You're still saying no, but Xiaofeng's personality is something that everyone knows after spending so much time with him.

He is usually quite mature and serious, but sometimes he can actually be quite bad-tempered and always likes to tease people.

When Xiaolong and he were kids, they fought, and I think he was the one who started most of it.”

When it comes to this, Liu Qianqian couldn't agree more.

She couldn't help but complain, "These two people met now and they are still competing to see who is better, just like children."

Then he talked about the last time when two brothers kicked the door in to compete to see who could reach higher.

Liu Qianqian gritted her teeth and said, "I don't know how this can be compared, it's so childish!"

Shu Chang burst into laughter and clapped his hands with joy.

The naive Chen Linfeng took out a cup, looked around like a thief, and then asked, "Xixi, where are the elders?"

Liu Qianqian paused the conversation and replied, "They went to Room 3 to discuss. Do you want to look for them?"

Chen Linfeng shook his head violently, "I'm not looking for it. I'm coming out to get a glass of water."

He asked with interest, "What were you talking about just now? Why were you laughing so happily?"

Liu Qianqian curled her lips and said, "You are not pouring water here, you are here to investigate the enemy situation."

"Haha, you see it but don't say it."

Shu Chang watched their interaction with a smile and felt very happy.

Chen Linfeng looked at Shu Chang, "Aren't you busy recently? Is The Revolution of 1911 coming out soon?"

"Yes, just these two days, but I am an invisible person, so I don't need to advertise much."

Shu Chang plays Qiu Jin in the film. In a movie dominated by male actors, she is considered the second female lead, which cannot be considered bad.

However, this year's National Day movie season is pretty bad, with almost no movies worth watching.

The two most heavily promoted films, "Legend of White Snake" and "Painted Skin", are both bad movies.

In fact, the summer season is not that good either, as it is almost entirely occupied by Hollywood blockbusters.

Although Chinese filmmakers were highly involved in "Infinite World", it is still a Hollywood movie after all.

Any one of last year's series of excellent works would be far superior if it were put on this year's list.

At the beginning of the year, because of the movie "Your Name", everyone was quite optimistic and felt that this year would most likely continue last year's good momentum.

But by now, everyone has noticed that something is wrong.

What is going on? Is it true that the spring of domestic films will only last this year?
In other words, the news of this century-old classic in film history was big enough that it continued for several months and overshadowed a lot of public opinion.

But at this point, it is impossible to always stop the momentum of public opinion.

"Bad movies are the norm, and domestic films are in a state of mourning"

"Looking for a less bad movie among a bunch of bad movies, when did we start to eat so badly?"

"The country is about to open its doors. Are we going to rely on these movies to resist Hollywood blockbusters?"

Many media outlets really have no shame at all, and each report is more harsh than the other.

Even if we give some face, the news headlines are hard to describe.

"A dark horse emerges from a sea of ​​bad movies, while a good movie stands proudly amid the wailing of the masses"

"The future is promising, looking forward to the Lunar New Year"

From late September to early October, throughout the entire National Day period, there has been such news that is pessimistic.

Eventually, Chen Linfeng began to feel that something was not right.

It’s true that domestic films have not been very satisfactory in recent months, but it’s not that bad.

It can't be that Hollywood is leaking the news in advance.

But let’s put all this aside for now.

In early October, Chen Linfeng and Liu Qianqian secretly went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage certificate.

Two days later, the wedding was held successfully.

The whole thing was kept extremely low-key, and few people in the circle knew about it.

Apart from relatives, Chen Linfeng invited few other friends.

On Liu Qianqian's side, she pulled Shu Chang, but on Chen Linfeng's side, she didn't find any.

It doesn't matter who you look for, because there will always be someone left behind.

I did find a few familiar elders, including Qian Yanqiu, Zhao Changtian, Yu Shengming, and Tie Zong.

They were all the families that Chen Linfeng visited during the Chinese New Year.

It was not until after the wedding that Chen Linfeng attended a party with friends and distributed wedding candies to people.

Only then did everyone realize that he had actually finished the job.

Netizens were even slower to realize it.

Celebrities from the entertainment industry congratulated them on Weibo one after another, and only then did they realize that something had happened.

"Fuck, they got married without any fuss?"

"Give me back my fairy sister. I haven't approved it yet."

"You're playing the game of acting first and asking for permission later, eh? Give it to me again, I want to see it."

"Why? I already didn't know anything about your relationship, so why do you want to get married?"

"No, I can't accept it."

"Brother Feng, how could you fall for another woman!"

"..."

Both of them have huge fan bases, and the news came too suddenly, and some people were caught off guard and couldn't accept it.

There are many people who suffer from emotional breakdowns, especially students, especially female students.

There is even a video circulating online that shows a female middle school student somewhere crying on the table after learning the news.

There is more than one example.

There was also widespread grief on various social platforms on the Internet.

Although Chen Linfeng and Liu Qianqian are both powerful stars now, they both have some idol elements.

Nowadays, when idols get married, it’s like the sky is falling.

Weibo and several other platforms, for the sake of Chen Linfeng's face (shares), tried their best to help reduce the traffic, but it was of no use at all.

Whether it is a forum or Weibo, people are discussing related topics.

Everyone is shouting that their youth is over.

I didn’t dare delete it, for fear of causing even more trouble.

This has caused Li Changzai, who is in charge of online public opinion in Qilin, to be overwhelmed.

Fortunately, there was no major incident of jumping off a building to commit suicide, otherwise it would have been a big deal.

In fact, it took Chen Linfeng and Liu Qianqian so long to announce their relationship before they officially got married, which shows that things have eased a lot.

They were already very good friends and classmates, so it was natural for them to like each other.

To many people, this is indeed a very normal thing.

Another thing is that Chen Linfeng never promised not to fall in love from the beginning to the end.

Comparatively, fans will feel less betrayed.

He even said that he would definitely fall in love and get married.

What can fans do? If they fall in love with such an idol, how can they give up on him?

If they could, they would have wanted to change it a long time ago.

Therefore, although domestic public opinion is relatively heated, the heat remains high.

But it wasn't to a drastic degree.

I think it will disappear after a while.

However, before Chen Linfeng could breathe a sigh of relief, public opinion abroad rose again.

When the news spread to Japan and South Korea, more fans were upset than in China.

Fans in both countries took to the streets and organized joint petitions, hoping that they would not get married.

They even compete with each other, saying, "You have more people, I have more."

If you cry in the street, I will go on a hunger strike in protest.

No, don't use your competitive spirit in this area.

Chen Linfeng couldn't hold back, the thing he was most worried about still happened.

Fortunately, he didn’t have time to contact anyone to resolve the situation. The one on hunger strike finally endured it for a day, and then couldn’t bear it anymore.

After all, being hungry is really uncomfortable.

The video of someone feeding the fish and then enjoying the delicious food was made into a GIF and spread wildly on the East Asian Internet.

Later, it even spread to European and American social media and became popular around the world.

Of course, they don't know this yet.

Chen Linfeng knew about this and also received the video. After all, this is the most intuitive.

And then he really couldn't hold it back.

This is too ridiculous. Girl, you are not here to make trouble, are you?

The scene of it shaking its head wildly and refusing to eat, and then having its eyes wide open after the food is stuffed into its mouth is so funny.

There is no need to even say the word "really delicious".

Wang Jingze's Law has already taken effect before Wang Jingze appeared on the screen, right?

Chen Linfeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and even felt a sense of accomplishment.

This never happened in my previous life, and this emoticon has never appeared.

But the matter is more or less settled.

Because things have taken a funny turn.

Originally, fans from the two countries shared a common hatred for the enemy and competed to express their love for Teacher Qilin.

In the end, I discovered such an embarrassing scene and instantly lost my spirit.

Destroy it, I'm tired, hurry up.

As a result, the CP party forces among the fan groups of Chen and Liu have risen.

They weren’t in the spotlight before, but now it’s finally their turn to appear.

At first, the large number of neutral people were not happy when they heard the news that the two idols were getting married.

Now, due to the impact of various public opinions, it has gradually eased.

The thought of eating melon arises.

Therefore, the leaders of each CP party took control of the situation and came forward to celebrate the marriage of the two on various occasions and in various ways.
