104: Chapter 104 Innate Hot Search Sacred Body

With the release of the film, the music video for the ending theme of "burning life" was also released soon after.

The production team had shown it to Lin Chuyan in advance, mainly just to let him pick out the footage, so the editing and post-production teams could create the music video based on his selections.

Under normal circumstances, this part is actually quite difficult to handle.

The reason is quite simple—the edited footage involves the artist appearing on screen, and this part requires the artist's personal approval.

It's even harder when dealing with traffic stars; picking the footage takes forever, and after it's edited, there's post-production facial retouching, and if someone has yellow teeth, they even have to whiten them...

The editors at Jianjia Entertainment were actually mentally prepared for a struggle, but they didn't expect Lin Chuyan to approve it on the first pass.

The post-production team almost cried when they heard this news.

For the working stiffs, this was almost the only good news they had heard during the Spring Festival Movie Season.

"I'm a fan, I'm a fan! From now on, whoever insults Lin Chuyan, I'll fight them!"

Lin the Dog fan +1

Consequently, the more they looked at Lin Chuyan in the music video, the more pleasing he became, and they put even more effort into the editing.

The music video was actually quite simple; it just used footage of Lin Chuyan recording the song paired with scenes from "burning life."

But to Director Li Li's surprise, the music video spread even faster than she had imagined.

On the first day of release, the most discussed topic wasn't her movie, but this ending theme song!

Trending Search #1: #Lin Chuyan the flower that blooms only for itself#

Trending Search #5: #Lin Chuyan is Singing about his own life#

Trending Search #8: #The ending theme of burning life is so good#

Ridiculous, Director Li Li only had two trending searches herself...

However, seeing this, Director Li Li finally felt less anxious—surely "burning life" would be stable this time, right?

You have to know, her competitor is "assassination."

Director Qi Kai—a well-known big director in the industry who has directed too many good films. Although the "assassination" in this Spring Festival Movie Season isn't a family-friendly type, her "burning life" isn't either.

Feng Liqian—the top star of Jinghua Entertainment, currently transitioning from a traffic star to a professional actor. This collaboration with Director Qi Kai is also seen as a powerful alliance.

Directed by Director Qi Kai and starring Feng Liqian, the screening rate is about the same as "burning life."

The box office champion for this year's Spring Festival Movie Season will most likely come from these two films. This is also the general consensus in the industry.

Looking at the momentum today, maybe the box office later could outperform the competition?

For "burning life," she naturally held high expectations. After all, her first directed film went straight to 5 billion...

Director Li Li sat in her office, thought for a moment, and quickly began editing her next Weibo post, then published it.

"The first time I heard the song 'the flower that blooms only for itself' was in a small conference room. At the time, I was crying my eyes out in front of Lin Chuyan. Part of it was because of the lyrics, but more importantly, it was Lin Chuyan's Singing voice—clean, sharp, and moving forward without hesitation, like an arrow released from the string that never looks back, shocking and piercing straight to the heart.

Thank you, Lin Chuyan, for making the movie 'burning life' more complete. He is an excellent Singer, and also a true actor. Finally, I wish everyone can be like Jin Ying and find that flower that blooms only for itself."

Director Li Li didn't just post this Weibo randomly.

If it was really to thank Lin Chuyan, was there a need to post such a long Weibo? Wouldn't a direct message on WeChat have sufficed?

The main purpose, of course, was to ride the wave of the trending search, and by the way, promote the movie. For example, the last sentence mentioned both Jin Ying and the name of the ending theme song.

Moreover, the other party is Lin Chuyan, a person who is chased and insulted by Haters every day.

Now, what did Director Li Li say?

"Director Li Li cried listening to Lin Chuyan sing," "Director Li Li praises Lin Chuyan as an excellent Singer," "Director Li Li praises Lin Chuyan as a true actor"...

There are too many talking points; just taking any one of them could make it to the trending searches.

If she didn't take advantage of such good marketing material, then she wouldn't be Director Li Li.

Sure enough, after it was posted, netizens quickly swarmed over.

"This song is indeed good... I admit I was a bit too loud when speaking about Lin Chuyan before..."

"Sis, I really want to give you a hug. It's okay, it's normal. I was able to cry listening to it in the movie theater, and you heard it live!"

"I understand the logic, but why does Director Li Li want to praise Lin Chuyan as some kind of true actor? He didn't even participate in the acting..."

"Lin Chuyan is indeed an actor; he has acted in several films, they just haven't been released yet. But regardless, it has nothing to do with Director Li Li, right?"

"Rumor has it, not guaranteed to be true: It is said that one week before the release, Lin Chuyan went to Jianjia Entertainment to discuss the ending theme collaboration, and then somehow both sides started arguing. Lin Chuyan scolded the production team in the conference room, and Director Li Li was on the scene at that time."

"The person above is joking, right! Do you think you're writing a novel? Going to discuss a collaboration and then arguing with the other party's people, look at what you're saying, is that reasonable?"

"It might not be reasonable for others, but for Lin Chuyan, it's not necessarily so."

"This is true... My friend is at Jianjia Entertainment... This matter has already spread internally, okay. They say it's because Lin Chuyan couldn't stand the 'burning life' team always using weight loss as a promotional point, and even asked if it wasn't normal for actors to lose weight? Someone on the Jianjia side wasn't convinced, and then they started arguing, and it seems this person was even sprayed by Lin Chuyan until they fled in defeat..."

"Ridiculous... The more you say, the funnier it gets. Director Li Li just watched from the side? Also, if this kind of thing really happened, could they still negotiate the collaboration? Have some logic, okay?"

"Believe it or not! Open your eyes and look at the trending searches, then click in and look at the real-time feed; it's all praise. With a song like this and an effect like this, who wouldn't want it? You're stupid yourself, do you think Director Li Li is also stupid? She's sharp!"

Once this sentence came out, it immediately convinced a large group of people.

Soon, the news of Lin Chuyan arguing with someone in the Jianjia Entertainment conference room spread.

And it became more and more outrageous as it spread.

Many people ran to Lin Chuyan's Weibo to leave comments asking for verification.

"Bro, I heard you were passionately spraying people offline and debating a group of scholars? You took on an entire team from Jianjia Entertainment by yourself?"

"Bro, I heard you scolded someone until they vomited blood? What's going on???"

"Yanzi is awesome. I heard you scolded Director Li Li until she cried? And you could still talk about a collaboration? She even posted on Weibo to suck up to you? How did you do it? Seduction technique?"

"Bro, Director Li is praising you, what's going on? I want to hear the details."

"Lacking quality is just lacking quality. Is it not enough to scold people online, you can't even rest offline?"

Lin Chuyan only felt it was inexplicable; he could only say that Director Li Li really knows how to market and cause trouble...

He picked the comment asking for details and replied: "There's nothing to say. Actors should focus on acting, shouldn't they?"

Yes, he did not deny the matter of the offline confrontation.

And, why does it seem like there's a hidden meaning? What does "Actors should focus on acting" mean? What is the meaning of this?

People who haven't seen the movie might still be a bit confused, but people who have seen the movie can react in a second—holy crap, this is no different from pointing at someone's nose and scolding them, right? You might as well just say Director Li Li's name!

The Spring Festival Movie Season is just like this; every move is too easily noticed. Since someone like Lin Chuyan, who likes to speak online, has been dragged into the whirlpool of the Spring Festival Movie Season, naturally, there will be people who amplify every word he says.

Consequently, new trending searches soon appeared.

#Lin Chuyan argued with Director Li Li's team#

#Lin Chuyan Actors should focus on acting#

Looking at these two trending searches together, isn't it just scolding "burning life" for being a huge trash movie?

How should I put it.

People with slightly slower internet speeds can't keep up with this rhythm.

One second, Lin Chuyan sang the ending theme for Director Li Li's movie, Director Li Li was moved to tears, and praised him as a true Singer and actor.

The next second, you tell me Lin Chuyan argued with Director Li Li's team again?

Damn, who is Lin Chuyan? Can he really cause this much trouble? Can he just get on trending searches whenever? Is Weibo run by his family?

Born with the constitution of a trending search, right?

This person is toxic!
