Chu Lingyu was unwilling to see Jiang Yuan, no matter how Ling Haoyue begged him.

Ling Haoyue could only use the tactic of procrastination, lying that Chu Lingyu was too busy recently and couldn’t spare the time. He procrastinated for more than two months in fear, and Jiang Yuan completely exhausted his patience.

He blocked him in the bathroom and asked: “Ah Hao, you are not lying to me, are you?”

Ling Haoyue was extremely nervous, but he could only bite the bullet and continue to lie: “How could it be? Brother Jiang, I will go back and ask my brother again today, and I will give you a clear answer tomorrow.”

Jiang Yuan looked at him with a smile: “Then I will give you one last chance, otherwise, I can only take the bill to your aunt to ask for money.”

Ling Haoyue said quickly: “Brother Jiang, believe me, I will find a way to make my brother free up time tonight, so that my aunt won’t be disturbed for such a small matter.”

If Lin Qingluo knew about this, he would definitely be kicked out of the Chu family.

Jiang Yuan let go of him: “That would be the best.”

Ling Haoyue leaned against the wall with his legs weak, and he didn’t dare to cry until they left.

He cried while sending voice messages to Chu Lingyu, sending more than a dozen 60-second voice messages in a row.

Chu Lingyu didn’t have time to open them. Today was the premiere of the spy film “Spy War Heroes” starring Zhang Mingjie, and he went to attend it with Chu Heyan.

The investors and director of “Spy War Heroes” didn’t have high expectations for the box office. After all, this kind of subject matter doesn’t attract young people. During the filming, there was also a controversy over the banning of the actors who participated in the film, which made them think that the movie could be released smoothly without losing money would be good enough.

What they didn’t expect was that Zhang Mingjie, who was temporarily brought in to save the situation, suddenly became popular.

Almost four months have passed since the finale of “Linglong Xianzhen”, but Zhang Mingjie’s popularity is still very high. Although he is not on the hot search almost every day like before, he will still be sent to the front row of hot search by the public from time to time. After

being in the circle for a long time, it is not difficult to tell whether the hot search is bought or put up by popularity.

The total number of Zhang Mingjie’s fans is not very large, but most of them are active fans, and most of them are office workers, with very strong purchasing power. Even if he is not like other traffic stars who make materials all day long, the sales of endorsed products and various fashion magazines are also very impressive.

Fans are not good at fighting with other people, they prefer to spend money for the main person.

Therefore, after Zhang Mingjie, such a supporting actor who saves the scene, became popular, the movie “Spy War Heroes” also attracted much attention.

The investors immediately decided to increase the intensity of publicity and distribution. Chu Heyan took this opportunity to give them an additional investment and promised to let Zhang Mingjie cooperate with the publicity throughout the process.

This is a win-win situation. No matter how well the movie itself is made, it needs to attract traffic to be watched. After all, in this era, good wine is afraid of deep alleys^[1]proverb that means that high-quality items or people will eventually be recognized, even if they are initially hidden or not widely promoted.

For Zhang Mingjie, this is his first time to act in a movie. Although he only plays a supporting role with a short screen time, it can be regarded as a role in a large-scale drama movie, which has a very different meaning.

During the interview session of the premiere, reporters often asked Zhang Mingjie questions.

He did not prepare a script in advance, and he organized his words on the spot to answer any questions he was asked.

Fans who could not attend the premiere were excitedly squatting in the live broadcast room. With the constraints of big fans, everyone just quietly licked the screen and did not swipe the barrage.

Occasionally, passers-by who were interested in the movie would click in to take a look, and most of the barrages were them discussing.

“Isn’t this the villain who became popular a while ago? He also starred in this movie?”

“Another villain? This guy can’t only play villains, right?”

“Not everyone can play the villain, okay? Haven’t you heard how high Director Sun’s casting requirements are?”

“Stop arguing, just watch the live broadcast.”

“I haven’t seen ‘Linglong Xianzhen’, but Zhang Mingjie was quite impressive when answering reporters’ questions. It seems that he has studied the role he plays carefully, and his analysis of the character’s core is also very reasonable. I’m going to buy movie tickets.”

“Finally, there is a traffic star who can speak clearly. Usually, when I watch interviews with those people, I really doubt whether they have graduated from elementary school.”

“I thought Zhang Mingjie would be a drag when acting with these veteran actors, but now it seems that he may not be a bad actor. Let’s watch the movie before judging.”

“After all, Zhang Mingjie graduated from a professional school. Even if he can’t compare with his powerful predecessors, at least he can pass the passing line.”

“It feels much more comfortable to listen to educated people speak, and his lines are also very good. I heard that the movie is original.”

“I’m tired of the top stars who are not good enough. Since anyone can be a top star, why not choose someone who is not so stupid?”

“The popular stars before the Internet era were all good at everything. Even the stars who were called vases at that time, looking back, their acting skills are much better than the current young actors and actresses. When can there be a Renaissance?”

This topic was moved to Weibo and soon triggered a wide range of discussions and attention. Many people were nostalgic and felt the stars who were really popular in Asia in the last century.

Chu Heyan browsed the comments online for a while, leaned close to Chu Lingyu and whispered: “Did you see it?”

Chu Lingyu was puzzled: “What?”

Chu Heyan: “The hot search for Renaissance.”

Chu Lingyu clicked in and looked for a while, then looked up at Chu Heyan: “What’s wrong with this hot search?”

Chu Heyan’s eyes were bright: “Believe it or not, one day I will realize everyone’s dream.”

Other capitalists spend money to support any ugly child, so why can’t he support artists who are truly recognized and liked by the public?

Anyway, he is not in a hurry to make money, he just wants to change the rules of the game.

If this world is really just a script or a novel, then he will be the one who stirs up the world.

The so-called villain is just someone who disagrees with the protagonist.

And the first protagonist of this world is right next to him.

As long as the protagonist and he are in the same camp, he is not the cannon fodder villain in the script.

As for whether the plot collapse will cause the whole world to fall into chaos as the system said, he will wait and see.

On the contrary, if the plot does not collapse, and Ling Haoyue, who is poisonous and stupid, and the real young master, who is blind in love, become the core of this world, he thinks it is more terrifying.

If such people stand at the top of power, the world will also fall into chaos.

When other people hear his words, even if they don’t say anything on the surface, they will definitely think that he is talking nonsense in their hearts.

But Chu Lingyu doesn’t think so. He looks at the person next to him and says seriously: “I believe it.”

Chu Heyan smiled, and the overly beautiful face was captured by the camera in the live broadcast room for a moment.

Netizens who watched the live broadcast with a magnifying glass were instantly excited.

“Return the camera to me! Dare I take another look at that beauty just now!”

“I saw it too! Ahhhhh, he’s so beautiful!”

“My heart beats at first sight! Mom, I’m in love again!”

“I took a screenshot hahahahahaha”

“Sister, send me a copy, I want to see it too!”

Someone posted the screenshot on Weibo, and someone else made the 0.1 second screen recording into an animated picture, which soon spread across major platforms.

“Help! This is too beautiful!”

“Wow, mom, I saw the real Nuwa graduation project^[2]referring to the beauty! The goddess of beauty has descended!”

“Such beautiful phoenix eyes, a very pure oriental beauty, feels like a noble young master raised in a wealthy family with fine clothes and delicious food.”

“He is so suitable to play the role of a prince, a nobleman.”

“I feel blasphemous at first sight, this smile is killing me!”

“I want to know all the information about him in three seconds, otherwise I will blow up the earth!”

“Is this a newly signed artist? Debut for me! I want to favor him every day!”

A premiere was on two hot searches, which the film producers would not dare to think about in the past.

The investor joked with Chu Heyan with a smile: “Mr. Chu, you won’t lose anything if you sacrifice your beauty to make our movie sell more at the box office, right?”

Chu Heyan didn’t care about it, but Chu Lingyu was not happy.

The public relations department of the company he was contacting was about to withdraw the hot search. Hearing what the investor said, he was a little unhappy: “Mr. Zhao, if you like being on the hot search, I will buy you one now.”

Mr. Zhao was not angry either, and said cheerfully: “Just kidding, just kidding, Mr. Chu, don’t take it seriously.”

Xingtu’s public relations department has grown very fast in the past few months. Chu Lingyu just issued an order to withdraw the hot search, and within a few minutes, netizens found that their happiness disappeared.

Everyone drew their swords and looked around, feeling confused, so they had to run to the square of “Spy War Heroes” to ask what was going on.

“What else could it be? He doesn’t want such a high popularity, which means that he is 99% likely to be the young master of a wealthy family.”

“Wow, I really don’t deserve it.”

“This is such a pity. Are there any peerless beauties who owe a lot of debts and can only join the circle to make money to pay off their debts?”

“A gambling father, a sick mother, a sister who goes to school, and a broken man, is it this kind?”

“Yes, yes, yes! I am a bad person, I just want him to please me.”

“Once you have seen the sea, you can’t be impressed by the water. Now I don’t feel anything when I look at other beauties and wives/crying”

Chu Lingyu looked at those people who were crazy about Chu Heyan on the Internet, and felt very uncomfortable.

Even if he had asked someone to delete all the photos of Chu Heyan, there was no guarantee that no one would save them and forward them privately.

This made him inexplicably feel a sense of crisis, and a familiar sourness and depression.

The last time he had this feeling, it seemed that he had mistakenly thought that Chu Heyan liked Zhang Mingjie.

Now Chu Heyan has not shown his love for other people, but netizens are crazy about Chu Heyan because of his appearance. Why does he still feel uncomfortable?

At the premiere, the interview session was over and the main film of “Spy War Heroes” began to be shown.

Chu Heyan saw Chu Lingyu still looking down at his phone, touched his leg, and whispered: “What are you watching so intently?”

Chu Lingyu quickly put away his phone, “Nothing, the movie is about to start?”

Chu Heyan hummed and began to concentrate on watching the movie. He was soon attracted by the exciting plot and did not notice that Chu Lingyu next to him was staring at his profile in a trance.

After the screening, Chu Heyan sighed: “It’s really well filmed, plus the attention caused by the early publicity, at least it won’t lose money.”
