The Godfather of Chinese Entertainment's Little Flowers

The sky over the island city is a clear, bright blue, and the sea breeze feels wonderful on your skin.

The unique European-style old houses are hidden among the green trees, and looking up, the red roof of Signal Hill in the distance is dazzling in the sunlight.

Inside the affiliated high school of Shanghai Theatre Academy in Qingdao.

A huge red banner with gold lettering hangs in front of the teaching building, fluttering in the wind.

It was printed with "The Opening Ceremony of 'With You'!"

An incense burner and simple offerings were placed on a red table in the center of the open space.

Han Luo and several other lead actors, dressed in white short-sleeved shirts and blue school pants, stood behind director Liu Chang and others, devoutly offering incense and praying for blessings!

The outermost perimeter was occupied by a group of reporters with long lenses and microphones, as well as some fans who had come to see the place.

Soon, with a loud shout from the host...

Bang bang bang! !

Fireworks exploded on both sides, and colorful ribbons rained down from the sky!

Everyone pulled down the red cloth covering the camera and cheered, "Wishing 'The Best of Us' a successful start to filming!"

After the ceremony, it was time for the interviews.

Han Luo has risen to fame rapidly recently and is the biggest star among the main actors!

Undoubtedly, it became the target of the reporters' "attack".

Han Luo stood next to Liu Chang in the center of the stage, undoubtedly in the center position!

"Teacher Han Luo, this drama is completely different in style from 'The Unlawful Monk.' I want to ask, why did you take on this role?"

Han Luo picked up the microphone and smiled:

"Because I think this is a great domestic youth campus film, I'd regret it if I didn't take the role!"

"Teacher Han Luo, could you tell me why you think so highly of this drama?"

"Because it's so realistic! I bet it's unlike any other campus movie you've ever seen! There aren't too many clichéd plots!"

Upon hearing this, the reporter seemed to smell a fishy odor and pressed for an answer:

"You mean recent domestic youth films are all too melodramatic, is that right?"

Han Luo shrugged: "I didn't say that. How you interpret it is your business!"

Han Luocai wasn't fooled!

He is not yet qualified to make such outrageous statements.

Seeing that they couldn't find anything on Han Luo's body.

The reporters then turned their attention to the female lead, Tan Songyun, who was standing to the side.

The other party is a nobody in the industry, so there's not much to worry about.

Even the questions can be pointed.

"Ms. Tan Songyun, before we came here, we saw some fans of the original novel on Weibo saying that you are not suitable to play the role of Geng Geng. What do you think about this?"

Tan Songyun was stunned, her hand holding the microphone tense.

The reporter's words were not fabricated.

Since the cast list for "With You" was released on Weibo.

Many fans of the original work left comments under the official account:

"The official casting was terrible. Tan Songyun is too old and completely unsuitable to play Geng Geng, totally ruining the image of Geng Geng in the hearts of book fans!"

Even worse, some people sent her private messages on Weibo:

"Like an old cucumber painted green—trying to look young! You're twenty-five, playing a high school student? Aren't you ashamed?"

"..."

Although these people only make up a small minority, that doesn't stop them from using strong and aggressive language!

Tan Songyun hesitated for a long time before slowly saying:

"I personally really like the character Geng Geng, and I believe I can portray her well!"

She didn't answer directly.

But the reporter clearly didn't want to let the matter rest and continued to press:

"Do you think you can handle the role of a high school student well in your current state?"

"I will try my best!"

Tan Songyun is no longer a complete newbie.

Although I was unhappy, I knew to downplay the issue.

She knew in her heart that the main reason was that she didn't have much fame, so she lacked confidence and couldn't speak too harshly.

To put it bluntly, it's about swallowing your anger!

The reporter wasn't stupid; not getting the answer they wanted, they asked a different question:

"So, Professor Han Luo, what's your opinion on these online comments?"

Han Luo glanced at Tan Songyun, then smiled and said:

"No matter what people say online, I think Tan Songyun is the best Geng Geng in my heart!"

"What?!"

These words stunned even the reporters.

Even Tan Songyun stared wide-eyed at Han Luo with an incredulous expression.

So tough?

The reporter paused for a few seconds, then quickly followed up, "Mr. Han Luo, why are you so confident that Ms. Tan Songyun can portray Geng Geng well?"

Han Luo smiled casually:

"It's not that I believe it, it's that the facts will speak for themselves! There's no point in saying all this now; everyone will know when the actual show comes out!"

The sea breeze of the island city ruffled the stray hairs on Han Luo's forehead, and her curled eyelashes trembled slightly in the sunlight.

His eyes and brows were so bright at that moment!

Tan Songyun was momentarily dazed.

Everything around seemed to gradually fade away at that moment!

It wasn't until Liu Chang's voice rang out that she was pulled back to reality.

Seeing that the conversation was getting increasingly awkward, Liu Chang quickly took the microphone.

"Let's give the opportunity to our other journalist friends and see if they have any other questions?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Chang glanced at the label on the reporter he had just seen.

Depend on!

Penguin News!

Our competitors, no wonder they asked such tricky questions!

The interview went relatively smoothly and was gradually coming to an end. Liu Chang raised the microphone high:

"Finally, thank you to all the media for coming. Let's all look forward to the day when 'With You' airs..."

Surrounded by security guards, the group left in an orderly fashion, preparing to board the crew's bus to head to the next filming location.

The cheers from the onlookers immediately rose.

The majority of the group consists of Han Luo's fans, mixed with book fans and fans of other people.

"Wow! Han Luo! You're so handsome! Can I get your autograph?"

"Han Luo, keep going! We'll always support you!"

"Han Luo, you are the best Zhang Xianzong in my heart!"

"Han Luo, you are the chosen one, Yu Huai!"

"..."

Seeing this, Liu Chang was in a good mood and teased:

"Xiao Luo, I didn't expect you to be so popular. Most of these people are your fans."

Han Luo was also somewhat surprised.

"To be honest, I didn't expect them to come all this way to support me!"

The impact of the character Zhang Xianzong far exceeded his expectations.

Or are these people all here because of my good looks?

Liu Chang patted him on the shoulder and laughed:

"Yeah, it's not easy traveling this far. Should I give you some time to sign autographs for them?"

Han Luo glanced at the fans watching, most of whom were young girls, and her heart softened.

"If it won't delay the progress, I'll stay for a while."

"It's alright, there are only one or two indoor scenes today anyway."

"Thank you very much, senior brother!"

These fans who have supported him from the beginning are the most loyal and may even become die-hard fans.

Han Luo didn't mind spending more time on them.

As the teacher once said: A single spark can start a prairie fire!

We cannot underestimate the power of any one of them; the future belongs to fandoms and online traffic.

They all have their own core supporters!

Seeing that Han Luo had stayed behind alone, the fans became even more excited and rushed forward.

Han Luo stretched out his hands and shouted, "Everyone, don't rush! Take your time, getting hurt is no good!"

A moment later, Han Luo realized he was wrong and had greatly underestimated their enthusiasm.

He strongly suspected that if security guards hadn't stopped him, he probably would have been stripped naked...
