Chinese entertainment: Top stars started being pursued by young actresses

Chapter 118, Section 117: Senior Sister: I dreamt you were going to eat me (6K)

Meanwhile, Master Hua was even more depressed.

He was also invited to the Chinese Song Music Festival.

He didn't have as many award nominations as Lin Shaobai.

The monk truly couldn't understand it.

You're telling me, someone who focuses solely on music has fewer awards than someone who juggles singing and acting?

This year's Chinese Songs Music Awards mainly recognizes songs from last year to August of this year.

Master Hua sat on the sofa, looking at his assistant beside him, and said, "Do you think it's possible that Lin Shaobai has connections to this music awards ceremony?"

The assistant was momentarily stunned.

What does it mean to "reach into the music awards ceremony"? Does it mean that kind of relationship?
As is widely known, Lin Shaobai's father is a high-ranking executive at Huace Company, and his mother is the vice president of Beijing Film Academy.

Their connections are indeed quite strong.

"Boss, let's be honest. In 2017, Lin Shaobai did release a lot of great songs and was a dark horse in the music scene, which is a well-known fact. He was also very popular, and I think those award nominations were quite fitting."

"The last two nominees with this many nominations were Xue Zhiqian and Jay Chou, right? Lin Shaobai is so young, what makes him so special?!"

Master Hua had an answer in her heart, but she was unwilling to say it aloud.

How could someone as arrogant and haughty as him possibly tolerate someone as young and talented as Lin Shaobai?

Mao Mao is also talented, but he still finds fault with Mao Mao in various ways on the show.

Deep down, I just can't stand talented people.

But Mao Mao's looks don't threaten him; Lin Shaobai's looks, however, do!

Assistant: "Boss, to be fair, he deserves these nominations, and it's just a nomination, not an award. The Chinese Artists Association won't give him all of these awards."

That's right, the Chinese Song Music Festival is organized by the Chinese Artists Association. It is officially organized, formal, and authoritative.

Master Hua understood that Lin Shaobai, who juggled both the music and acting industries, had already amassed a much larger following than him.

Lin Shaobai has already entered the ranks of the top celebrities.

"The entertainment industry is truly full of extraordinary people."

Master Hua sighed.

Tian Xiwei was also unable to sleep that night.

After taking a walk along the river, Xiaotian returned to her dormitory. She lay on her bed, tossing and turning, her movements making the bed creak.

This caused great distress to my roommate across the hall.

Everyone knows that Xiaotian has a bad temper, so I'm embarrassed to talk about it.

They could only endure this humiliation.

*sobs* T_T.

In my next life, I definitely want to be a roommate with guts!

Tian Xiwei's mind was filled with thoughts of Lin Shaobai; she had never been this kind of person before.

"Really, it all happened so haphazardly..."

"But I slept with a top star? Can you understand it like that? I slept with a top star? I slept with the most popular and handsome top star in the entertainment industry right now..."

Tian Xiwei even seemed a little shy when she was talking to herself.

"Yes, I can't stay here and feel miserable."

"I hope he doesn't forget what I told him before."

Tian Xiwei turned over and finally got some rest.

Her roommates breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that there was no sound from her.

Oda finally went to sleep.

The next day
The filming of the comedy series "Little Joy" has started normally.

Today, Zhou Ye will perform a classic play with Tao Hong and Sha Zhantang.

Specifically, it should be considered a classic scene: "Hey, open the door, Daddy!"
This scene mainly features Tao Hong and Sha Zhantang acting together.

When Zhou Ye wasn't filming, she would watch this funny scene from behind the camera.

After a while, Lin Shaobai also arrived; he wanted to see the filming as well.

"Yingzi, open the door, Daddy."

"How did you come?"

Upon hearing Tao Hong's voice, Sha Zhantang's face immediately fell: "You're home?! Um, um, no, Song Qian, could you open the door for me? I got something for the child."

Tao Hong said to the doorbell, "We agreed to meet once a month. Don't break the rules, okay? You're bothering us every day. You should go home now."

Sergeant Sha kept begging at the door.

Unfortunately, according to the story, these two people are already divorced, but they both love their child.

In the scene where the ex-husband Qiao Weidong, played by Sha Zhantang, tries to enter the room but Song Qian won't let him in, he later gets arrested by security for acting suspiciously.

The security guards even asked Song Qian on the spot if she knew someone named Qiao Weidong. She said she didn't.

Qiao Weidong was also helpless.

He was also described by the security department as a pervert who specifically stalked single female residents.

After filming the scenes between the middle-aged actors, it was Lin Shaobai and Zhou Ye's turn.

Lin Shaobai felt that Sha Zhantang's portrayal of this character was really hilarious.

I don't know if it's because I watched "My Own Swordsman" before, but I always feel that Teacher Sha has a kind of comedic charm.

He was born to be a comedian.

Next up is a scene between Lin Shaobai and his senior sister.

In the drama, Qiao Yingzi's mother installed a soundproof wall in her room so that she wouldn't be disturbed by anything during her senior year of high school.

Fang Yifan found it very novel.

Once everything was ready, the two began acting.

"action"

Lin Shaobai lay face down on the soundproof wall, reaching his hand up to press his ear close to it.

The poses are funny and bizarre.

Lin Shaobai: "Wow, this soundproof wall."

Zhou Ye sat in the chair and swung his legs: "Feels good, right?"

Then, pointing to the soundproof walls of the entire room, she said, "These are the soundproof walls my mom installed for me during my senior year of high school. Apparently, they can reduce the sound level by up to 45 decibels."

Lin Shaobai looked around the room in the direction she pointed, his hands in his school uniform pockets, staring intently at her: "45 decibels, that's strong?"

Zhou Ye nodded: "That's right."

Lin Shaobai turned around and patted the soundproof wall behind him, his eyes filled with curiosity.

The director, who was watching the camera, was full of admiration for Lin Shaobai's truly brilliant acting.

Fang Yifan wanted something lively, something vivid and lifelike.

Now, Zhou Ye's hair is loose, and her beautiful and pure face is even more striking.

It seems that casting her as Qiao Yingzi was the right decision.

Qiao Yingzi is really beautiful.

"But Yingzi, I don't think it's much different from a regular wall, except it feels nice to the touch."

After Lin Shaobai finished speaking, he still had that naive look on his face and rubbed the soundproof wall with his hand.

She laughed so hard her eyes narrowed into slits.

Zhou Ye leaned back lazily in his chair: "Why would I lie to you? It's like where celebrities record albums... let's call it a recording studio. It's the same effect. Whatever you say inside, no one outside can hear it."

Lin Shaobai's eyes widened: "Really?"

Zhou Ye nodded.

"Since you put it that way, I'll give it a try!"

After Lin Shaobai finished speaking, he put his hands on his hips, took a deep breath, and shouted, "Tong Wenjie! Tong Wenjie, come here!!"

They unleashed all the pent-up emotions they wouldn't normally dare to express at this moment.

"Come here, I have something to tell you. I'll be waiting for you here!!"

As Lin Shaobai spoke, he pointed to the ground with his finger.

His movements at that moment were particularly arrogant.

Because he was completely at ease with the soundproof wall.

Who knew that the next second would come the angry roar of his mother, "Fang Yifan, what are you doing?!"

Startled, Lin Shaobai immediately cowered, crouching down to hold onto the desk, peering through the window to see his mother's reaction, then looking at Zhou Ye with a resentful expression: "Didn't you say you couldn't hear?"

Zhou Ye was so frightened that she hid on the bed, gritting her teeth: "But I didn't tell you to yell, big brother!"

"Great card!!"

The director was particularly satisfied with the two actors' performances, as they perfectly captured the mischievousness and cuteness of children.

The two then went to watch a middle-aged actor perform.

The reason this show became popular is because the middle-aged people and high school kids all acted exceptionally well; not a single one of them had a bad performance, which is what made this ensemble family drama stand out.

After finishing filming today, Lin Shaobai took a day off. Tomorrow he will be attending the Chinese Song Music Awards.

In the evening, Lin Shaobai returned to the hotel and first looked at the event's flowchart.

"A Little Reunion" was filmed in Beijing, and the Chinese Music Awards were also held in Beijing, so there was no need to take a plane.

Many celebrities will be there that night, including Hua Fashi, Xue Zhiqian, Jay Chou, Mao Mao, Bibi, Yu Wenwen, Zhang Bichen, Tia, Zhang Xingxing, Cai Kunkun, Rocket Girls 101, and so on. Almost all the popular and less popular singers in China will be there.

Most importantly, who on earth is Guan Xiaotong??
Lin Shaobai was a little confused.

Is this woman a singer?

I later learned that she had been nominated for All-Round Artist of the Year.

Okay, fine, all-around it is then.

Zhou Ye came out after taking a shower.

I suddenly burst out laughing as I was walking.

That eerie laugh is terrifying.

She seems to be possessed.

Lin Shaobai frowned: "Hey senior sister, what's wrong with you? It's scary to suddenly laugh while walking."

Zhou Ye: "I was just thinking about Teacher Sha's acting back then. Yingzi opening the door, Daddy. I was laughing so hard in the back. And I really enjoyed watching him act with Teacher Tao Hong."

Lin Shaobai: "That's true..."

"very nice."

Zhou Ye rolled around on the bed.

She thoroughly enjoyed filming "A Little Reunion," not only because she could watch mature middle-aged actors perform, but also because she could be with the people she loved most.

I am very happy right now.

Lin Shaobai sat on the edge of the bed, still looking at the ceremony's schedule.

Zhou Ye first went over and hugged Lin Shaobai, then lay down on the other side to read the script.

In fact, Qiao Yingzi couldn't stand her mother's authoritarianism from the very beginning.

At first, I didn't feel the pressure of senior year, so my emotions were relatively stable.

Later, various pressures came her way, coupled with her mother's authoritarianism and strong desire for control, all of which combined to cause her to develop depression.

After carefully reading the character biography, Zhou Ye felt very sorry for Qiao Yingzi and hoped to portray the character well.

In fact, apart from Fang Yifan and Lin Leier, the other two families in "A Little Reunion" all had unspeakable conflicts with their parents.

"Hey, Kobayashi."

"What's wrong?"

"What was your senior year of high school like? Was it the same as Fang Yifan's?"

"No, that's not it. My parents divorced a long time ago, and I've always lived with my mom. She's very strict with me."

"Oh……"

Zhou Ye felt he shouldn't have asked that question.

Why is our conversation getting more and more sensitive?
Divorce is probably a topic that children are reluctant to discuss.

"then you……"

"Ask away, it's okay, I won't feel bad."

Do you feel sorry for yourself?

"What's there to pity? If you have money, you won't feel sorry for yourself."

The truly pitiful ones are those children who lack both money and love.

Zhou Ye scratched his head, unsure what to say. A moment of awkwardness ensued, and he could only continue reading the script.

After finishing his work, Lin Shaobai went to wash up.

Go to bed early so I can attend the grand ceremony tomorrow.

Zhou Ye turned off the bedside lamp, plunging the room into darkness.

In the darkness, only the faint breathing of two people could be heard.

Zhou Ye straightened the blankets and then looked at Lin Shaobai lying next to him.

His high, straight nose and delicate features always captivated her.

To be honest, Lin Shaobai is the most handsome boy Zhou Ye has ever seen. How could someone like that not be popular in the entertainment industry?
Coupled with excellent creative abilities and superb acting skills, how could he not be a top star?
No one expected Lin Shaobai to rise to fame so quickly.

This kid debuted in 2017 and became a top star in 2018?!
Previously, the top stars in the Chinese entertainment industry, such as Lu Han, Feng Zi, Fan Zi, VV, and TFBOYS, all spent many years in obscurity or debuted from wildly popular Korean groups.

Lin Shaobai is a rather peculiar individual.

He landed a hugely popular drama and became a top star. Who wouldn't say he's a lucky guy?

No wonder Lin Shaobai has been given a nickname online: God of Wealth.

They are incredibly good at making money, and they make money incredibly fast.

The path to becoming a top star is as swift as a rocket launch.

Zhou Ye watched for a while and then turned his head back to him.

Go to sleep, go to sleep, I can't watch anymore.

She thought to herself.

My senior sister slept soundly until the middle of the night, but then she suddenly had a terrifying nightmare.

In her dream, she became a princess from a foreign land, tasked with rescuing a prince trapped by a dragon.

Indeed, in her dream, the traditional story was reversed.

Perhaps that's just how wildly imaginative my junior sister is.

Holding a great sword, she slashed through the dragons one by one until she finally stood in front of the castle and saw the final boss, the great fire dragon.

Who would have thought that the giant fire dragon had a human face, and that it was Lin Shaobai!
Family members, who knows?
I really don't want to see this bizarre sight again!

"OMG!!!"

Zhou Ye was startled awake by this situation!

What a bizarre dream!

It has the exterior of a fairy tale, but the core of a horror movie is actually just that.

Zhou Ye woke up from a nightmare and sat on the bed for a long time, unable to recover.

Her breathing gradually quickened, and there was some cold sweat on her forehead.

She covered her face with her hands, hoping to calm herself down as soon as possible.

"pat"

Hearing the noise, Lin Shaobai slowly got up, struggling to open one eye halfway, and looked at Zhou Ye: "What's wrong? It's so late at night, anyone who didn't know better would think you're possessed?"

Zhou Ye grabbed Lin Shaobai's arm: "I dreamt about you."

Lin Shaobai: "You dreamed about me?"

Shouldn't this dream be a sweet dream?

Why is he looking so terrified?
Even if it's not a beautiful dream, it could still be a spring dream.

Then it's even less likely that it would be such a terrifying expression, right?

It should be Shu... cough cough, I'm getting off-topic.

"Is it really necessary to look so terrified if you dream about me? This is clearly a nightmare. Did you dream that I did something to you?"

Zhou Ye: "You're going to eat me."

"Oh no... Your dream is... is... is quite exciting." Lin Shaobai gradually woke up.

"Oh no!"

Zhou Ye seemed to understand something when he saw Lin Shaobai's look, and quickly shook him: "It's not what you think."

"what is that?"

“We’re not even on the same wavelength. In my dream, I was a hero who slayed a dragon.”

"Oh……"

Lin Shaobai scratched his neck: "Judging from your description, I probably won't appear in this kind of dream, right? Oh, I get it, I must be the prince. I'll go with you to slay the evil dragon and save the world. You'll be the princess, and I'll be the prince, right?"

Zhou Ye: "You've been trapped by an evil dragon, I'm coming to save you."

Lin Shaobai instinctively tilted his head back: "Oh, a damsel in distress? Fine, fine. Then you slay the dragon to save me, and incidentally give me a sincere kiss, right? I can guess that!"

Zhou Ye remained silent: "..."

As a famous saying goes, silence is the Cambridge of tonight.

Silence speaks louder than words here.

Lin Shaobai: "That's not right either. If the plot continues like this, you wouldn't need to have nightmares. Shouldn't it be a happy ending?"

Zhou Ye: "..."

"So why did you stop halfway through your sentence?"

"You are an evil dragon."

"what?"

Lin Shaobai was dumbfounded.

"What did you say?(﹁"﹁)"

"I said that in my dream you were the big boss dragon. I fought my way through many small dragon monsters, and finally I saw the big boss. When the boss dragon turned its head, I found that it was your face."

"..."

Lin Shaobai's lips twitched.

Knowing that Zhou Ye is quirky and clever, I never imagined that his dream was also so "quirky and clever"—it's amazing!

Hahaha... What kind of insane dream is this...?

Lin Shaobai touched his chin.

He imagined the scene based on his senior's description.

Yeah, it's pretty scary.

No matter what kind of monster it is, as long as a human face is attached to it, it inexplicably gives off a creepy feeling.

Such an eerie feeling allowed them to appear in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas".

"Then I understand why you were so scared. It turns out there's a reason for it."

Lin Shaobai found the whole thing really funny, but at the same time he couldn't help but admire his senior sister's cuteness.

He put one arm around Zhou Ye's shoulder and then pulled her into his arms.

Zhou Ye is soft and fragrant; it's especially comfortable to hold.

"Senior sister, senior sister, your thought process is perfect for being a writer. Your imagination runs wild."

"Forget it, I'll just be an actor. I feel like I'm only suited to be an actor, nothing else suits me, and I don't have the talent for it."

"Really? Actually, it would be good for you to sell roasted sweet potatoes."

"Roasted sweet potato??"

"Yes, I remember you really liked roasted sweet potatoes in the winter. Why don't you sell those? People have tofu beauties, and you're so pretty, so let's call you sweet potato beauty."

"Pfft!" Zhou Ye laughed so hard his eyes curved into a line.

She got out of Lin Shaobai's arms, stretched out her arms, and lay straight on the bed with her head tilted back.

Her hair was naturally loose, and she sank into the soft blankets.

Lin Shaobai sat cross-legged on the spot, quietly watching him, his eyes gradually softening.

Zhou Ye has a really cute personality.

She always had a bright smile on her face, which made people feel happy just looking at her.

If he had to use this to describe her, Lin Shaobai felt that she was like an adorable Samoyed puppy, the kind that runs on the lawn in the bright spring sunshine.

She possesses the charming innocence unique to girls her age, and has a sunny, positive, and optimistic personality.

Being with her always makes me feel like my heart is drawn to her.

"So..." Lin Shaobai grabbed Zhou Ye's leg, "What is the ending of the dream?"

Zhou Ye opened his eyes: "The dream ended with me waking up. I was startled awake the moment the dragon turned around and looked at me."

"Oh... I thought you killed me with a single sword strike."

Lin Shaobai was just joking.

Zhou Ye remained lying in bed, her small feet nestled in Lin Shaobai's arms.

"That won't work."

Lin Shaobai was touched by what he heard, and deliberately pretended to be about to cry tears of joy: "That's great, I knew you wouldn't kill me!"

"A dragon as big as you can't be killed in one sword strike; it would take several!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, senior sister, how come you've learned to make jokes like this now?"

As Zhou Ye spoke, he laughed and hugged Lin Shaobai.

"very nice."

"What good?"

"Isn't it nice to wake up from a nightmare and see you, and get your hug? Xiaolin, next time you have a nightmare, I'll hug you like that too. I'll hold you tight in my arms and won't let you be scared anymore."

“I don’t think I’ll have nightmares. I’m not as timid as you.”

"Who's a coward?! You're the coward!"

As Zhou Ye spoke, he patted Lin Shaobai's chest with his hand.

While the two were chatting and laughing, Lin Shaobai's phone suddenly rang.

This shattered the sweet atmosphere.

Zhou Ye didn't notice anything unusual, but Lin Shaobai was very worried.

It's the middle of the night, who could be calling at this hour?
Could she be a princess?

That doesn't make sense. The princess has a very regular daily routine. Even when she stays up late to study, she only stays up until midnight.

Moreover, when sleeping, the body is as stiff as a steel plate, making it impossible for neurasthenia or early awakening to occur.

Could it be Ruonan?

That doesn't make sense. How long has it been since we last contacted each other?
Professor Cheng?
Never mind, she probably doesn't have any needs lately.

Tian Xiwei?

Not very realistic.

She just sent a message telling the two of them to forget about what happened that night.

However, it's quite possible that she might actually make a phone call late at night to vent her anger!

Zhou Ye: "Why aren't you answering the phone?"

Lin Shaobai raised an eyebrow: "Answer it."

He reached for the bedside table, only to find it belonged to his assistant, Xiao Liu…

Lin Shaobai's eyelids drooped instantly.

"Xiao Liu, do you want to check what time it is on your phone?"

"Oh, boss! I'm so worried about you, I'm just so glad you're alive!!"

The assistant, Xiao Liu, could be heard crying in pain on the other end of the phone.

Lin Shaobai immediately sensed something was wrong: "What's wrong? What happened?"

"Oh dear, I just had a nightmare. I dreamt you died. It scared me so much I had to call you right away. Please, please don't die!"

"roll."

Lin Shaobai decisively hung up the phone.

Zhou Ye listened to the whole thing and couldn't help but laugh at Lin Shaobai's awkward expression.

"Well, it seems his dream is even more outlandish than mine."

"That's pretty outrageous. Time to sleep."

Lin Shaobai and Zhou Ye lay down in bed together.

A short while later, Zhou Ye quietly went over and hugged Lin Shaobai.

She had a particularly sweet smile.
