I became a movie star at the age of three; Dilraba and I are childhood sweethearts.

Hao Shaowen was held in mid-air by Zhu Yanping and giggled.

Amidst the noisy crowd, only Xiao Chen remained quiet.

He knew very well that the phrase he had just heard was nothing more than a cliché internet meme from his past life.

But in an era when comedy was still relatively simple, these nonsensical witty remarks were nothing short of a bombshell.

The effect is outstanding!

Zhu Yanping quickly calmed down and directly added the line to the script.

After the lyrics were revised, filming continued.

But soon new problems arose.

This time, the one who got stuck was another key figure in the production team—Lin Zhiying.

As one of the most popular idols today, Lin Zhiying's face is impeccable.

But his acting skills were somewhat immature.

Zhu Yanping wanted him to portray the character's unruly and unrestrained nature, while also conveying a touch of youthful arrogance.

Lin Chih-ying looked like she was shooting a poster every time she stood there.

He's really handsome.

It has no soul.

Zhu Yanping rubbed his aching temples, looking somewhat helpless.

"Xiao Zhi, relax a little!"

"It's not about posing; you need to move, you need to bring the character to life!"

Lin Zhiying looked somewhat annoyed.

"Okay, I'll try again."

Lin Chih-ying tried again, but the result was still the same.

In fact, because I wanted to move so much, my movements became even stiffer.

Xiao Chen knew what Lin Zhiying's problem was.

It's simply because they care too much about their image, have too much of an idol baggage, and can't let go.

He thought for a moment, then walked over with his short legs.

"Brother Zhiying".

Lin Zhiying squatted down and forced a smile.

"What's wrong, Xiao Chen?"

Xiao Chen asked.

"Are you playing a very powerful martial arts master?"

Lin Zhiying nodded.

"yes."

Xiao Chen looked completely innocent.

"Then why are you looking at the camera?"

"A true master only sees his opponent, or... he sees no one at all."

"Because in his eyes, everyone else is an idiot and not worth his attention."

Lin Zhiying was stunned.

Everyone else is an idiot.

Not worth watching...

This sentence made him suddenly realize something!

That's right!

He was always thinking about how to look cool and how to make the coolest expression, but he forgot that the core of this character is arrogance.

It's an arrogance that comes from the bone, a nonchalant attitude towards the whole world.

Lin Zhiying lowered her head and thought for a few seconds.

"I think I understand."

"Director! Let's do it again!"

Zhu Yanping nodded.

"Understood? Let's do one more! All departments, prepare!"

As the camera switched back on, Lin Zhiying's gaze was no longer unfocused, but rather slightly lowered.

When his co-star rushed up to him, he didn't even lift his eyelids; his movements were incredibly graceful.

Zhu Yanping excitedly raised the walkie-talkie.

"Okay! Passed! Passed!"

This worked even better than he had expected!

Lin Zhiying breathed a long sigh of relief, quickly walked up to Xiao Chen, and picked him up in her arms.

"Xiao Chen! You're my savior!"

After saying that, she excitedly kissed Xiao Chen on the cheek.

Xiao Chen wiped the drool off his face with the back of his hand in disgust.

His mind was as steady as an old dog's.

Don't get excited, it's just basic stuff.

From this scene onward, Lin Zhiying became Xiao Chen's apprentice.

"Master! How should I act out that scene later?"

"Master! Do you think my gaze is correct?"

They called him "Master" repeatedly, in a sweet and loud voice.

At first, some people thought Lin Zhiying was joking, but later they realized that he really regarded Xiao Chen as his teacher.

Not far away, Wu Mengda and Zhu Yanping sat side by side smoking.

Wu Mengda's gaze remained fixed on the little one who was being surrounded by Lin Zhiying.

"Old Zhu, you've struck gold this time."

"With him in this movie, the box office is guaranteed to be high."

Zhu Yanping looked smug.

"Of course, the pay is 30."

"Hao Shaowen, who had the same amount of screen time as him, only received 1 yuan."

Wu Mengda shook his head, knowing that Zhu Yanping hadn't understood him.

"The last person who made me feel this way..."

"It's still that brat surnamed Zhou."

Zhu Yanping's smile froze.

The surname Zhou...

Who else could it be?

Uncle Da's evaluation of Xiao Chen is surprisingly high?

He turned his head and re-examined the little boy who was being fought over by Hao Shaowen and Lin Zhiying.

The little boy's face was expressionless, seemingly somewhat helpless, and everything appeared to be normal.

But Zhu Yanping's heart skipped a beat.

He had an extremely strong premonition.

Perhaps, this child's future achievements will be even greater than that of the one surnamed Zhou!

……

The two months passed quickly.

Filming for "Shaolin Popeye" has wrapped up successfully.

At the wrap party, the entire crew revolved around Xiao Chen.

Hao Shaowen hugged his leg and cried his heart out.

Lin Zhiying was even more reluctant to part with him and insisted on recognizing him as her godbrother.

Vivian Hsu also secretly sat down next to him and wiped away her tears.

Xiao Chen was in a real mess, and in the end, Wang Jinhua rescued him from the crowd.

By the time we returned to Beijing, it was already early autumn.

After finishing his work on the film set, Xiao Chen finally had some free time, so Ye Huimei took him to the mall to buy clothes.

After all, she's considered a minor celebrity.

The outfit has to be appropriate too.

Xiao Chen himself didn't feel anything; as long as he had enough clothes, that was fine.

As soon as the two entered the mall, a young mother pointed at Xiao Chen and excitedly spoke to the child in her arms.

"Look! It's that handsome young man!"

"That guy on TV... the one washing his mom's feet!"

"Good boy/girl, you should learn from him and wash Mommy's feet, be a filial and good child!"

The little boy, nicknamed "Baby," sucked his finger and looked at Xiao Chen with curiosity.

Xiao Chen: ...

He remembered.

Before he went to film "Shaolin Popeye," he filmed a charity video called "Washing Mom's Feet."

It should have already aired by now.

And judging from the current situation, it seems to be quite popular?

Before Xiao Chen and Ye Huimei could react, the crowd had already quickly surrounded them, their enthusiasm was frightening.

"Madam, could you please have your baby sign this for me?"

"Little brother, let's take a picture together!"

"Oh my, what a handsome child!"

Ye Huimei protected Xiao Chen and it took a lot of effort for them to squeeze out of the mall.

Good guy.

Her son has really become famous.

It seems that not only are paparazzi lurking around kindergartens, but we can't just go out shopping freely anymore!

In the following days, Ye Huimei truly understood what phenomenal popularity meant.

On television, major satellite channels were playing that GG video on a loop during prime time.

The newspapers were full of praise for him.

Even the shopkeeper downstairs from his house would insist on giving Xiao Chen a bottle of soda whenever she saw him, and she would also praise him afterward.

"What a good child. I wish my son was half as sensible as you."

Wang Jinhua, the agent, has been receiving a barrage of phone calls.

"Hey? Hello, we're Wahaha, and we'd like to invite Xiao Chen to be the spokesperson for our purified water..."

"Hello Ms. Wang! We are from BBK Electronics! We're looking for Xiao Chen for our e-reader..."

"Miss Wang! Master Kong instant noodles! Price negotiable!"
